Platinum makes diamonds sparkle brighter on the red carpet, so it's no wonder why our favorite stars opted to wear platinum jewelry to the 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards. Style expert Michael O'Connor notes that "Celebrities are choosing one area to highlight, whether that's a large statement necklace in platinum, big earrings or stackable cuff bracelets." O'Connor adds that "Colored gemstones are making a big appearance on the red carpet. We're seeing more in the cooler palettes, such as blues and greens." Since platinum is a naturally-white metal, it will maximize the brilliance of colored stones too.
