Jessica Alba Has Come Full Circle
A recent recipient of a Teen Choice Award, in her acceptance speech, Jessica Alba spoke of being “pidgeon-toed, sway- backed, slightly cross-eyed, buck toothed, and a thumb sucker (which could explain the latter in her long line of self deprecatory comments!)” in her youth. She dedicated the award to Ross, whom she said, even after succumbing to his request for a kiss, still picked her last when playing baseball. She finished her speech with “Look at me now Ross! Look at me now!” She certainly has come “full circle”, being one of the most highly sought after young women in Hollywood at the moment.
Perhaps the circumference of her life is symbolic in the diamond circlet she’s wearing. The circle motif is hot, hot, hot – prominent at the moment in all manner of textiles including fashion and interiors, as well as accessories and jewelry.
As a stand alone piece, or layered with a delicate length or two of chains, as Jessica has done, the ever popular symbol of continuity is appropriate in settings both casual and elegant.
Emulate Jessica’s look with these pieces:
A 14K white gold Diamond Journey Pendant. This brilliant piece has 26 diamonds with a .50 CTW, and is among my favorites.
Layer with a 14K White Gold Diamond By The Yard necklace. I know I’ve mentioned the Diamond By The Yard Necklaces before, but they’re worth revisiting because I think they are so very pretty and infinitely conducive for the layering trend.
