Many stars who attended the Los Angeles New Moon premiere chose to accessorize with jewelry made from black and white diamonds set into platinum. Others wore pieces fashioned from onyx and other black materials.
Medium to large cocktail rings were popular, too, and several women either stacked multiple bracelets on their wrists or wore wide (but delicate) cuffs.

Celebrity Jewelry Trends at the American Music Awards - November, 2009
Black and white diamonds set in platinum seem to be one of the celebrity trends of the season (on Rihanna and Whitney Houston for two), but there are always a huge range of styles at red carpet events. Kristen Bell wore a gorgeous cocktail ring fashioned from a huge moonstone surrounded by diamonds and sapphires, all set in platinum, and Nicole Kidman's diamond and pearl earrings were classic.
ON THE MORNING OF NOVEMBER 4th, ABC's "GOOD MORNING AMERICA" RAN AN EXPOSÉ ON SALES OF UNDISCLOSED "COMPOSITE" (GLASS-FILLED) RUBY, CHARGING WIDESPREAD FRAUD. Many in the jewelry industry believe that the network's investigative methods are as scandalous as its findings. Just what did and didn't ABC prove; and did it go overboard in its tactics and conclusions?
Nobody disagrees with ABC that there are sales of ruby in American jewelry outlets that owe their looks to glass filling. No one disagrees that some of these sales of what is now called "composite" ruby are deceptive because shoppers are never told this critical fact. Indeed, nearly two years ago, gem dealer groups even issued global alerts about this material and demanded that gem labs develop specific nomenclature for this material and flag it as treated on lab identification and grading reports. As proof, we are re-printing our story from that time about this material called "X-Gems: The Rise of the Mutant Mineral," published in January 2008 and preceded by an email bulletin to all subscribers.
Where many in the trade find fault with ABC is over its tactics and conclusions. First, the network never mentioned the trade's own warnings about this ruby and attempts to prevent fraudulent sales of it. The trade was made to look implicitly guilty of indifference and neglect. Second, the network only found deceptive sales at three Macy's stores and in no others. Do sales by one firm in one market constitute proof of rampant rip-off nationwide and in all types of jewelry stores? Did ABC shop high-end stores where one would be less likely to find low-grade ruby? You be the judge. On our website we link to ABC's "Good Morning America" video. Look at the 5-minute segment and let us know if you think it's fair.

Jewelry Trends on the 2009 MTV VMA Red Carpet
It's unfortunate that this year's MTV Video Music Awards will be remembered by the scene Kanye West created when he rushed onto the stage and grabbed the microphone from Taylor Swift's hands before she could give her acceptance speech for Best Female Video, ranting that Beyonce should have won.
Had he remained in his seat (handcuffs could be a good look for the next awards ceremony he attends) Kanye would have heard the announcement for Beyonce's Video of the Year award, where the class-act star shared the stage with Swift, giving her the speech-time that Kanye took away.
Bling-bling earrings were the primary jewelry theme of the night, not unusual for an MTV awards show, but simple pendants and other necklaces were popular, too. The award for most unusual attire probably goes to Lady Gaga
