Best Red Carpet Diamond Jewelry of 2018

Whether you love them for their high wattage sparkle or classic elegance, diamond jewelry has always been a red carpet staple. Here are our top picks in no specific order of the best diamond jewelry of 2018.

Beyonce: How could you not forget Beyonce’s custom $4 million Lorraine Schwartz diamond geometric earrings from the Grammy Awards? We wondered why she wore the sunglasses but if you’ve got 70 carats worth of diamonds plus another 35 carats for the center pear-shaped stones, you too would need shades to shield your eyes from all that blinding bling! Beyonce's grammy earrings

Zendaya: Still remains one of our best jewelry looks at the 2018 Oscars. She wowed us with her vintage diamond suite of jewels from Bulgari. Zendaya's jewels at the 2018 Oscars Shay Mitchell: She has had one hell of a great red carpet run for 2018 but the jewelry look that stood out for us was her Messika diamond ear cuff she wore to the post Golden Globe parties. Shay Mitchell ear cuff Elsa Hosk: The VS model gave us some major Marilyn Monroe diamonds are a girls best friend vibes at Cannes this year. Elsa was picture perfect in a 5 strand diamond necklace and matching bracelet from Chopard. Chopard diamond necklace Elsa Hosk at Cannes 2018 Katy Perry: We’ve fallen for this combination of diamond jewelry that Katy wore to Disney’s ABC TV Press Tour. Her Colette diamond choker went seamlessly well with her edgy diamond APM Monaco ear cuff.Julianne Hough: Sometimes the best jewels are worn after the Oscars. Julianne proved this when she wore a diamond Deco stunner with jade accents from Lorraine Schwartz to the Vanity Fair Oscar after party. Julianne Hough at the 2018 Vanity Fair Oscar Party Lady Gaga: Gaga had everyone talking about these Chopard earrings at the Toronto International Film Festival. Although we saw these beauties before (Charlize Theron wore them to the Oscars) you have to admit Chopard wins hands down for creating one of the best pair of diamond earrings we have seen on the red carpet. Chopard diamond earrings Rihanna: It’s not called the Diamond Ball for nothing. The 30-year old Fenty Beauty creator wore over 100-carats of diamond jewelry from Chopard. Our favorite piece from this droolworthy look? Her eleaborate diamond bracelet which is actully a secret watch! Rihanna at the Diamond Ball Cate Blanchett: Another Chopard diamond jewelry look we fell in love with this year. Cate rocked a serious pair of diamond fringe earrings with bracelet at the Cannes premiere of Capharnaum. Cate Blanchett at Cannes 2018 Cindy Bruna: Diamonds and drama? Check!
