Thinking new jewellery? Look out for bright colors, big, bold, eye catching, along with geometric shapes. This year's Academy Awards was a great indicator for the latest jewellery trends. As usual, Angelina Jolie was ahead of the fashion pack with her eye catching over sized emerald jewels. In fact, Angelina's green gems covered several criteria for newest jewellery.

One of the biggest trends we see in jewellery fashion this year is colorful stones. Another feature that is now visible big pieces and geometric shapes. Angelina's drop emerald earrings came in at an impressive 115 carats and were so large, they almost resembled something out of one of her daughter's dress ups box. Angelina wore the matching 65 carat emerald ring as the perfect accessory. The emerald jewelry highlighted her simple and elegant black strapless gown to perfection. A splash of gorgeous color in just the right amount.

Another great example of colorful gemstone jewellery was the bib necklace that Amy Adams wore. This amazing piece of Fred Leighton jewellery contained diamonds, sapphires, rubies and emeralds weighing in at a very impressive 630 carats. Amy selected a red frock to highlight her neck candy. (This was the same necklace that was featured in InStyle magazine in November 2008, with Beyonce modelling the stunner on that occasion.)



Another jewellery fashion forward celebrity model Heidi Klum. Heidi combined multiple large pieces of coral and diamond jewellery for maximum visual effect. Heidi also managed to add another popular and costume jewellery trend, that of floral shapes.

Green and yellow are two of the more popular color we see. Eva Mendes stunned onlookers at the Golden Globes with her choice of a turquoise and diamond 4 tier bib necklace that she used to accessorise a white strapless gown. Also at the Golden Globes we saw yellow floral jewellery from Christina Applegate who wore a vintage diamond necklace that featured large flowers made from yellow diamonds.

So for the latest jewellery fashion, think colors, drama, and statement pieces. Bold solo colors can look breathtaking with black, a la Angeline, white as with Eva, or in Heidi's example, bright red. Multi-colored hues will look best when teamed with an outfit featuring one of the colors from the item of jewellery.

Jewellery trends right now are headed for dramatic colored stones in bold or big settings. Those who prefer their jewelry a little more feminine have floral shapes and settings to select from. These jewellery knockouts are a fantastic ways to liven up last year's little black dress. (Courtesy: PRLog)
