Paolo Costagli and his ombrė jewels

Ombré is a French term for the word shading–usually done from light to dark. In fashion, ombré has been popular on and off for quite some time. Whether it’s shades of purple on a long gown, or shades of blonde on a head of hair, ombré has been extremely popular lately. Ombre hair is the new must-have hair style, with Drew Barrymore and Rachel Bilson sporting the look above. But how can ombré be translated into jewelry? Paolo Costagli knows exactly how to do this, with his Ombré Collection. Eternity bands and hoop earrings feature the shades of blue, yellow, green and pink of the multi-colored gemstone sapphire. Each goes from light to dark in a way that is both subtle and dramatic at the same time! Earrings: green sapphire, blue sapphire and orange sapphire all $2800 each, pink sapphire $3250. Rings: green sapphire, blue sapphire, orange sapphire and pink sapphire all $950 each.
