These SAG Awards Jewels Stole the Virtual Broadcast
High jewelry from Bulgari and Cartier ruled the socially distanced show.

Maybe it’s the COVID-19 vaccine’s wider rollout or glam squads going a little stir-crazy at home (relatable), but if Kerry Washington’s synchronized swimmer-inspired at-home photoshoot pictured above is any indication, the Oscars will be as glam as they can be from afar.
Here are a few joyful jewelry looks from their precursor, the SAG Awards, held last Sunday in Los Angeles.
Got “Bridgerton” fever? You might after seeing series actress Sabrina Bartlett, nominated for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series, in a Bulgari Serpenti high jewelry necklace.
