Charlize Theron Exquisite In Black And White
The holiday season is always a kaleidoscope of color — the colorful decorations, dishes, and characters! This color saturation has left me in favor of some simple, but elegant black and white.
Appearing at Movies Rock, a celebration of music in film, Charlize Theron’s Jonathan Saunders dress is the perfect antidote to neutralize color overload! Opposites attract to create an unfettered, cool, crisp and classic look in this refreshing black and white (with just the slightest hint of a green stripe) number.
Charlize further enhances the elegance of black and white by choosing to accessorize with black and white diamond bracelets. Black diamonds, more porous than other varieties of diamonds, are found mostly in regions of Brazil, and central Africa. Alternately referred to as carbonato (“burned”, or “carbonized”) diamonds, it is humorous to note that many speculate an extraterrestrial link to these diamonds, given that they contain elements of nitrogen and hydrogen, hence speculation that the diamonds originate in the cosmos, ultimately manifesting on earth within meteorites, billions of years ago!
Whatever the origin of these ebony gems, one thing is for sure – set alongside their icy white counterparts, they are a study in opposites which compliment one another beautifully. Additionally, they are highly fashionable.
Here’s a trio of my absolute favorite Black Diamond Bracelets:
Top to bottom
White Gold Black Diamond Bracelet with alternating white diamonds.
White Gold Black Diamond Bracelet with another pattern variation for further visual interest.
White Gold Black and White Diamond Bracelet with a most unusual configuration of diamonds.
Worn singularly, or layered, these would be ideal with your little black dress, a pair of black pants and white cashmere sweater, or a white strapless linen dress with black belt and sandals in summer. It’s a fresh, exciting and oh-so-fashionable combo to add to your jewelry collection!

I had never even considered black diamonds before but just taking a closer look I think the combination of the clear and the black is really classy. It’s dangerous to read here because I find things I never knew I wanted or needed. LOL Her dress is beautiful and the accessories really do coordinate perfectly.

she does look exquisite! I love her with those bangs. And the bracelets are totally hot.

Black diamonds are awesome. I never knew were they were mined, or the theory of how they may have fell to earth in meteorites. Cool! I’m loving those bracelets especially the last one with the irregular pattern.
Charlize’s dress is a little bit 60’s. I like it. Nice change from all the frou frou ones at the red carpet events. It seems each one gets more ridiculous than the last!
