Sexy Angels Wear Statement Necklaces at the 2014 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show

For the first time ever, the gorgeous Victoria's Secret Angels flocked to London from New York for their annual lingerie show. Known as one of the sexiest shows on earth, the most-anticipated holiday presentation took over Earl's Court with skimpily dressed models.

Highlights include performances by Taylor Swift and Ariana Grande, who both had a good time sharing the stage with leggy supermodels. Sparkling through the runway were gilded wings made of 18k gold, which were worn by Karlie Kloss, who had some fun moments on stage with BFF Taylor Swift. The best part was when seasoned angels Adriana Lima and Alessandra Ambrosio stepped out wearing the Fantasy Bras.

While sexy lingerie, toned abs, and long legs were the main features of the show, gorgeous jewelry pieces (particularly statement necklaces) were also incorporated in the ensembles. The models had their share of gorgeous baubles on stage - from fun and funky multicolored accessories to elegant chokers.

Jewelry Spotting at the 2014 DVF Awards

Several powerful and stylish women attended the 2014 DVF Awards on Friday (April 4) held at the United Nations Headquarter in New York. Diane von Furstenberg was joined by other fabulous women like Alicia Keys and SJP to celebrate and honor female empowerment.

Aside from the chic ensembles, there were also loads of gorgeous and on-trend jewelry pieces that we spotted. So, we headed to one of our favorite shopping sites Shopbop, to find the best alternatives to these A-list jewelry pieces.

Alicia Keys

Alicia Keys, who was honored with the Inspiration Award that night, opted for a simple but classic pair of diamond stud earrings. We just love this choice because regardless of the season and even the outfit, they will always be a timeless piece that gives effortless sophistication.

Kate Spade New York Cueva Rosa Stud Earrings, $48

Wendi Murdoch

Businesswoman Wendi Deng Murdoch sported gorgeous three-tiered link diamond earrings. The sparkly jewelry was loaded with diamonds and obviously looks pretty expensive. We found a great alternative that has a similar look, minus the diamonds.

Kate Spade New York Estate Garden Linear Earrings, $98

Sarah Jessica Parker

To match her glittering gold frock, SJP wore an equally sparkly tennis bracelet with huge diamond stones. She also added a couple of rings to amp up the look even more.

Kenneth Jay Lane Cushion Cut Tennis Bracelet, $179

Diane von Furstenberg

Our favorite jewelry piece of the night was worn by none other than Diane von Furstenberg herself. She wore festive-looking statement earrings that had a large teardrop blue stone that was surrounded with smaller accent stones of different colors.

Scarlett Johansson Is the Epitome of Elegance and Sexiness at the 70th Venice Film Festival

Scarlett Johansson was indeed the epitome of elegance and sexiness at the premiere of her latest movie, Under the Skin, during the 70th Venice International Film Festival on September 3.

She was vavavoom in a black off-the-shoulder gown by Versace. It has a fitted bodice with some gathered details and also some sparkling embellishments on the arms. But while it's undoubtedly a stunning black gown, her spectacular necklace blew us away!

It seemed like her necklace stole the spotlight from her beautiful face and from her sexy gown! She was dazzling! The luxuriously sparkling colorful crystals are hard to miss. It indeed added the needed color and sparkle to her black gown. We must say this piece is the perfect jewelry/accessory to her look!

In case you're wondering, it's a Bvlgari creation! You might just want to contact Bvlgari to purchase this luxurious piece! We're sure, though, that this won't come very affordable.

Do Crystals Really Have Healing Power?

You’ve probably seen this somewhere - retailers selling crystal jewelry and claiming that they have healing powers. There are even crystal healers who offer holistic treatments to cleanse your body and spirit of bad energy.

Some New Age healing practitioners believe that these stones are magical and help alleviate stress, cure diseases, and even enhance psychic abilities. There are several types of crystal stones, and each is thought to provide different effects. Crystal healers say that believers are more likely to experience the benefits and powers of crystal stones.

Aside from their famous reputation of being able to heal, crystal stones are also a fashionable form of jewelry. They are incorporated in different pieces - earrings, necklaces, rings, and bracelets for a classic, timeless look. Some are also mixed with other gemstones that are believed to protect or bring luck to the wearer.

Whether there is truth to the power of these stones, we can’t argue about how beautiful they look when placed on accessories. If you want to try these interesting stones, check out the following crystal-infused pieces we found:

Top: Shashi Crystal Bangle Bracelet, $80; Bottom: Bing Bang Crystal Skull Cuff, $135

Heather Hawkins Crystal Point Necklace, $155
