The 68th annual Grammy Awards kicked off with showstopping performances by the Best New Artist nominees, and the jewels stars wore on the red carpet were just as attention-grabbing.
Chokers, torques, elongated earrings, and cool-tone metals took over with men going beyond just a brooch and watch to stack on their rings.
Although, some musicians took a more minimal approach to their jewelry this year while others chose to forgo jewelry altogether.

She completed the look with the “Era” ring and “Infinite” bangle both with Pandora’s lab-grown diamonds set in 14-karat white gold.

The Biebers also coordinated their “Ice Out” pins, worn to voice opposition to the recent U.S. immigration enforcement policies and the fatal shootings of Alex Peretti and Renee Nicole Good. A number of celebrities wore the pins to the Grammys, including Carole King, Billie Eilish, Kehlani, Rhiannon Giddens, and Brandi Carlile.

Decked out from her head to her toes, Tyla also wore the “Era” anklet with bezel-set lab-grown diamonds dangling on a paperclip chain, the “Era” bracelet, and two handfuls of “Era” and “Infinite” rings in 14-karat yellow gold with lab-grown diamonds.
