There are only a handul of diamonds bigger that this 85 carat diamond by House of Chopard.

The extreme limpidity, whiteness and clarity of the stone acquired by the jeweler falls in the IIA class, an extremely rare and pure category accounting for approximately 1 percent of all diamonds.

Stones of such perfection and such size historically originate from the Indian mines of Golconda, which were the only known diamond mines until the 19th century.

It is now in the hands of Chopard’s production team to create a piece of dazzling jewelry around this unique stone.

Style Seen Daily friend Jessica Lowndes of The CW’s hit series 90210 attended the Audi and Chopard Pre-Emmy event in Los Angeles on August 22, 2010 in a sexy throwback to the 50′s with a modern twist look.  We really liked her  Matthew Williamson Resort 2011 brown and gold printed dress.

Matthew Williamson’s designs are always inspired by his travels to around the world, and this collection is no exception. The Resort 2011 collection features Williamson’s structured silhouettes with exotic prints on every piece. The plunging neckline and pleated skirt of Jessica’s dress gave it a sexy yet sophisticated feel, and was reminiscent of styles from Mad Men.

We like how Jessica completed the look with a  pair of  chocolate-colored, snake print Stuart Weitzman Lille peep-toe heels. Stuart Wietzman’s creative designs have been known to walk the red carpet, specifically by offering a “one-of-a-kind” shoe to one celebrity to wear on Oscar night. Look for exotic prints and animal prints to be a hot trend in shoes this fall.

Always a fashionista, take a look at some other great articles where we feature Miss Lowndes.  Below, Jessica in a sexy strapless Lipsy dress, that launched in the United States Summer 2010. Click here for Lipsy coverage.

Super mom/model/mogul Heidi Klum earns our Style Seen Daily pick for most amazing jewelry spotted on the red carpet so far this year.  Above she is pictured in blackened platinum earrings that are absolutely breathtaking on her and frame her face perfectly.  Take a cue from Heidi, don’t be afraid to wear big jewelry and lots of it.  

SSD friend, and jewelry expert Michael O’Conner, loaned Heidi these amazing earrings for her to wear at the Oscars.  He also loaned jewelry to Natalie Portman, Penelope Cruz and Kate Winslet to name drop just a few  (these ladies also looked amazing and you can find out exactly where their jewelry came from in our SSD slide show).  Now he is disclosing to our SSD readers what he’s heard from today’s hottest A-listers about red carpet sparkle.        

“This year, celebrities draw inspiration from the timeless Hollywood icons of the 1930s depression era to bring a unique combination of understated elegance to the red carpet. The hottest styles are classic vintage and art deco Platinum pieces that are as sophisticated today as they will be tomorrow.”

Elegance & Sophistication

Understated elegance rule the red carpet with celebrities choosing to accentuate one area while downplaying others. “We’re likely to see high quality Platinum pieces that have both intrinsic value and long-term durability such as vintage necklaces and bracelets that have the ability to go with every style and color choice,” comments O’Connor.

Mix and Match

“A newer trend is mixed and matched jewelry styles. Look for unique pairings such as a luxurious statement piece like a platinum and diamond bib necklace paired with simple Platinum and diamond stud earrings,” says O’Connor.  

One is Never Enough

Whether they are simple Platinum bangles or chunky Platinum and diamond cuffs, one is never enough.

 “Stacked bracelets piled on, is a popular trend. Some celebrities choose to forgo large earrings and necklaces, making bracelets the focus of their red carpet look,” expresses O’Connor.

 Colorful Glamour

From Platinum and turquoise oversized earrings to sparkling ruby cocktail rings, “colorful Platinum and gemstone jewelry will be noticeable on the red carpet.  Celebrities use bright colors to stand out on the red carpet and enhance their gowns,“ O’Connor comments.
