The 5 Best Jewels at the Critics’ Choice Awards
Earrings, a bracelet and layered brooches stole the show.
Actress Kristen Bell wore these edgy ear cuff/diamond drop hybrid earrings from Forevermark to the Critics’ Choice Awards, held Sunday in Los Angeles.
Los Angeles—Wedged between its far more glamourous siblings, the Golden Globes and the Oscars, the Critics’ Choice Awards can oftentimes feel like an overlooked middle child.
But it’s an essential stop on the whirlwind tour that is awards season and one more opportunity to spot a milieu of elaborate jewels on the red carpet.
Here are five looks from the 25th annual Critics’ Choice Awards that were worth tuning in for.

Collars may have ruled at the Globes, but the Critics’ Choice Awards saw quite a few stellar pairs of earrings.

The colors were reflected in the actress’ dress and make-up, and further complemented with Irene Neuwirth rings.

We didn’t see Kristen Bell at the Globes and it’s unlikely she’ll appear at the Oscars, so the actress went for it at the Critics’ Choice Awards, where she was honored with the fourth annual #SeeHer Award, celebrating female role models who showcase authentic portraits of women.
Bell wore Forevermark hybrid ear cuff/diamond drop earrings in 18-karat white gold featuring two dangling lines of diamonds, a total of 13.02 carats.
She paired it with a 3.90-carat marquise-shaped diamond ring in 18-karat white gold.
The result was one of the best looks of the night.
