f a m o u s L y s a i d , “Elegance is good taste, plus a dash of daring.” I would like to think that this is what we present to our

readers. We work with artistic visionaries who display these beautiful items

in brilliantly creative and daring ways. After all, what Ms. Snow was talking

about is style.

The upcoming year showcases some of the most dramatic looks with re-gards to your jewellery and accessories. When it comes to watches, think leopard-prints, slick lines and clusters in diamonds. For your statement jewels, rough stones, shades of cerulean and an overall, understated elegance comes to top of mind.

Our 2013 style guide has many different representations of what inspiration can be. Jewellery and timepieces help us express our per-sonalities and different parts of our selves every day by simply changing how we adorn our image. Illustrators John Weber and Damien Vignaux literally painted their canvases with jewellery and timepieces for this is-sue to stunning effect. Photographers Babar Khan and José Tió capture two different sides of women’s jewellery, whether it is dark and romantic or sexy and playful, respectively. Photographer Michael Brunn takes an unconventional turn and uses an alternative model for high-end gems in his clever shoot.

While the self-awareness of how we express a vision of ourselves is important, I still believe that the greatest emotional satisfaction always comes from the pleasure of giving.

We hope this style guide will encourage the art of giving throughout the year.

W h i l e a t t e n d i n g the University of Toronto, Michael O’Connor took a part-time job working for Peoples Jewel-lers, a large jewellery company. Today, the style expert and TV commentator who has worked with celebrities such as Eva Longoria, Minnie Driver, Amy Adams, Felicity Huffman and Gabourey Sidibe, readily recognizes artfully designed and aesthetically pleasing accessories. O’Connor credits his background in creating original jewellery pieces for people with the success he enjoys today. “Creating original pieces or buying ones that would be popular and therefore sell, honed my skill and taste level to what works on certain people, what’s fashionable, what completes an outfit and how to get a certain look,” he says. “Growing up, I was influenced by the work of Nolan Miller, and loved the chic style sense of some older Hollywood celebrities such as Joan Crawford and Ingrid Bergman. From a jewellery standpoint, I loved the work of Verdura and the pieces designed by Fabergé.”

M I c h a e l O ’ c O n n O r D e -

f i n e si c o n i c s t y l e

Today, O’Connor finds inspi-ration in fashion and beauty,“I love to see what fashion designers are doing with silhouettes, fabrics, lines, colors. I find inspiration in new makeup shades or finishes. I’m inspired by hair-stylists. Acces-sory and jewellery designers also inspire me; they provide the finishing touches to any look. While clothing is like wrap-ping on a present, the jewellery and accessories are the ribbons and bows.” Regularly appearing on a variety of television shows, O’Connor has also done live coverage and commentary from the Academy and Emmy Awards red carpets. “Next year, I see colour continuing as a major trend. For jewellery, that opens the door for designers to use a variety of gemstones. There is a continuing trend toward old Hol-lywood and that means state-ment jewellery and accessories are a definite trend. Larger, chunkier pieces with presence and sparkle will be important. Some will achieve a larger look by layering.” > > > >

While fashion can define a person, it’s jewellery and accessories that help alter that definition, and that includes today’s variety of timepieces. “Watches by nature are a functional accessory and for men, that accessory is sometimes the only way that they feel comfortable expressing their individuality. A man’s watch can make a distinctive statement. I think they are less important for women who have the ability to create individuality in many more ways and therefore, have to fulfill a more decorative need than merely telling time.” O’Connor credits movies with giving audiences ideas in accessorizing, “Casablanca had great pieces of jewelry like iconic brooches on many of Ingrid Bergman’s costumes. In the 1940s, jewellery bright-ened up many of the simple silhouettes and darker fabrics. Movies like Breakfast at Tiffany’s made the little black dress a phenomenon, however the dress was made very chic with an abun-dance of pearl strands and a small tiara or hat.” O’Connor feels that many people downplay or forget accessories and compares this to forgetting the dressing on a salad. “Without the proper accessories, that little black dress could be tasteless and dull. Don’t be afraid of some contrast—in color or size.” For accessories that elevate an outfit to the next level, O’Connor offers this bit of advice. “Consider an amazing, large handbag. Also a chic silk scarf. And last but not least, nobody can deny the star-power of a great pair of hot sunglasses.” With his valuable insight into style and fashion, O’Connor sums up his definition of luxurious living. “It can be very subjective. Certainly beautifully made clothes and gorgeous accessories are luxurious. However, there are simple luxuries that I love as well, such as fresh flowers in a home. Luxurious living also means having the time to spend with good friends and family regularly. It’s something that I’m still striving for.” * * * *

A f t e r A l o n g d A y of styling Hollywood star Kate Beckinsale in classic Dior for a red carpet event, celebrity fashion stylist, Taylor Jacobson returns home and looks inside her own closet for something to wear out. “I tend to always wear black”, says the Connecticut native who moved to Los Angeles with her family at the age of eight. “So I like to accessorize with a pink or leopard shoe, something that pops on my feet.” Add a cool clutch in a graphic print with sharp corners or metal finishings and Jacobson is ready for an opening night at a local gallery “One of my favorite things to do is viewing art,” she says, or browsing vintage bookstores in a more casual version of the basic black ensemble. For Taylor, styling is a way of life. While her canvases may vary — from red carpet to editorial campaigns — her passion remains the same. She worked her way up the proverbial ladder after collaborating with a family friend who was a costume designer. “She said to come work for her and from there I met others in the industry.” Not bad for a young woman just out of her teens. “My first paying job was on a movie with Jamie Foxx called Breakup Handbook. I never had to intern so I consider myself super lucky.” She worked with infamous stylist Rachel Zoe for five years learning the ins and outs of the industry and how the whole celebrity world of styling worked.

Jacobson’s resume is vast — from Gwen Stefani’s Harajuku Lovers Tour to the film Ha-vana Nights. She has steadily grown her own brand, working on campaigns with advertising clients as well as editorial shoots for high-end fashion magazines. Along the way she collabo-rated on two seasons of Kasil’s denim line with creative director David Lim. Now her celebrity clientele includes Kelly Rowland (“he loves fashion and has fun with it”), Mena Suvari (“one of my favorite clients; she’ll wear anything I show her”), Marisa Tomei and more. “When I style someone, I take into account personality, body style, and I like to know what they feel comfortable in. I think a woman loses her confidence if it’s not about her anymore and it’s about the dress, the blazer, or the outfit. The dress cannot be wearing you.” To look divine, don’t settle. “You have to feel like you own it. You can always find something that gives you confidence and power.” Jacobson’s favorite looks run the gamut. “Always Chanel and Fendi because of their clas-sic style. You can never go wrong with them. I love ALC and think she’s [Andrea Lieberman] very talented doing phenomenal leather pieces, while Jenny Kane puts chiffons and prints together so well.” Knowing how to accessorize is equally as important as choosing clothing. Jacobson’s rule of thumb with jewellery is, “less is more.” She pauses. “But it depends because if you’re wearing a little black dress, then load up on the bracelets. That’s when I say over-acces-sorize, have fun with it because it’s a blank canvas. Keep the neckline clean and do a compli-mentary earring to the bracelets. I love Sutra – it’s fancy but they use a lot of black diamonds and raw stones; their pieces are bold and graphic.” She also chooses vintage Cartier, Ippolita and a wide range of Kimberly McDonald designs. When it comes to timepieces, “I think watches should not be worn with gowns or tuxedos”, states Jacobson. “I like men in watches when they wear suits.” “For women, I think the big-ger the better for daytime. I like an oversized man’s watch because it makes a statement and adds a little something to a basic outfit like jeans and a tee. There’s a reason why the Michael Kors watch sold so well and continues to. It ties outfits together.” Inspired by a love for fashion and design, Jacobson sums up what luxury means to her. “Warmth, upscale, and topnotch.” * * * *

W e o f t e n take for granted that the style, shape and material of jewel-lery we wear – like the ubiquitous beaded and shiny Shamballa to the sparkling Hamsa; the chunky ethnic-inspired bangle, or brightly-hued watch – has been pre-determined and predicted by a network of global watchdogs who specialize in some-thing called trend forecasting. Trend forecasters are profes-sionals who specialize in observ-ing socio-cultural phenomena and how they affect the market sector. Trends are a unique and intrigu-ing process of change and trend forecasters have a real influence on what millions of people wear, eat, and listen to. When you talk about trend forecasters within the jewel-lery world, the first name to come to mind is likely Paola De Luca. De Luca is a forecaster, de-signer, consultant, trendsetter and spotter who has inspired hundreds of designers, brands, and entre-preneurs world-wide. She has lent her highly sought-after expertise to a number of global brands that in-clude Ferragamo, Armani, Swarovs-ki, Luxotica and Pandora. Today, she is the founder of Trendvision Jewellery + Forecasting, an Italian multimedia creative and trend forecasting agency in associa-tion with Fiera Vicenza, the leading jewellery trade show in the world. As a trend forecaster, De Luca’s specialty is jewellery and luxury goods. She leads an extensive creative team through an extensive

A L L’ s W e L L t h A t

t r e n D s W e L L

process of research, guidelines, and inspiration. The research team collects trend data via cultures and then the data is organized, codified, analyzed and interpreted to identify future scenarios for the jewellery, watch and luxury goods sector. “We collect information about 18 months in ad-vance, which allows us to identify product mega-trends for the coming seasons,” she explains. Megatrends, by her definition, have a long cycle of four to six years and are influenced by tech de-velopment, economic crises and globalization; con-versely, short trends (or fads) last six to 12 months and include pop culture, fashion and celebrities. “trends don’t come from the catwalk like people think... they are a result of what’s happening,” she asserts. “they are a result of environmental and political issues.” And, as a result, “there has never been a better time in jewellery and design.” Right now, says De Luca, the younger genera-tion is starting trends – adapting to their circum-stances and creating a completely repurposed ver-sion of luxury. Moving into 2013, De Luca expects to see more “mixed media and hybrid jewellery. It’s no longer about gold or silver; it’s about mixed leathers, resins like Bakelite and other non-tradi-tional materials.” This kind of “Indigenuity” lends itself to primor-dial inspiration, like the use of rough diamonds, minerals and rocks.

De Luca points out that upcoming jewellery trends harness the concept of ‘think globally, act locally,’ and embrace the materials and motifs of particular cultures, whether or not the location is nearby. While fine jewellery inherently em-braces luxury, the current economic climate forces the notion of integrating less expensive materials into designs. Throughout the ages, diamonds have been sought after for their clarity, brilliance and fire. However, economic factors are forcing retailers to rethink how to market once “undesirable” diamonds. Brown, grey and yellow dia-monds are turning up in even the most important piece of jewellery in women’s lives – the engagement ring, and De Luca says that these unusual diamonds will change the perception of “bling.”Common rock crystal has become the antithesis to flawless diamonds, with leather replacing gold. Metals like silver are treated to look like iron and steel. De Luca says watches will con-tinue to feature prominently in 2013 as the primary jewellery piece, particularly for women; men‘s watches are evolving from the chunky and bold silhouettes to sleek timepieces.“Leather bracelets with precious clo-sures or diamonds, and nice applications of workmanship will take centre stage

this year,” she says. De Luca’s husband wears Cartier’s pink gold wedding band – one that matches her own, and she says that we should expect to see more yellow and coloured gold making their way into men’s jewellery. “With younger men paying attention to gen-tlemanly details,” she notes that men’s jewel-lery is also heading into an exciting direction. in addition to watches and rings (fashioned mainly in white metals), cufflinks are making a resurgence. De Luca feels very

strongly that the internet is a specific advancement in technology that com-pletely changed forecasting; In a world that’s now fully connected, jewellery

De Luca’s team has identified four megatrends that will influence the styles, colours and shape of jewel-lery worn in 2013 and beyond. Among them: Ecomagination espouses the balance between concern for the envi-ronment and playfulness. Too often, be-ing green is seen as a constraint, how-ever this trend uses nature as a source of inspiration. Expect to see everything from butterflies and wing shapes, flora silhouettes and botanical motifs. Nostalgia factors high in the Decorama trend, which serves to re-discover and interpret decorative styles of great influence. Blending classic de-signs with a fresh and modern twist, we can expect to see luxurious and exotic materials, and precious gemstones. Neo-wonder places an emphasis on colour and shape as a real power of expression. Louder, bigger and brighter is best, if you want to convey your mes-sage. The 80s influence continues, with vivid pops of colour; futuristic, clean silhouettes take their cue from bustling urban centres. Indigenuity is influenced by urban nomads who travel light and know that whatever they need will be at their next destination. It features a modern esthet-ic reminiscent of ancient tribes, and a desire for “slow fashion” which focuses on quality in production and product. ****

“trends don’t come from the catwalk like people think... they are

a result of

what’s happening”

designers are not only spotting and observing – they’re thinking and innovating as well. “We need the internet,” she says. “Typically fine jewellery has been an inherited — and therefore very closed — institution. However, with the advent of the digital era, and the open ocean that is the web, we are discovering a new generation of designers who have no prior ties to the jewellery industry, but are creating a new esthetic, new codes. Ultimately, jewellery is the expression of indi-viduality, and retailers will be tapping into trends and creating products that help consumers tell their stories, De Luca asserts. “This story is not only about the brand; a successful retailer will bond with its customer to help them answer the question, ‘what world or look am I selling?’ “Today, luxury is a philosophy that reflects contemporary values,” she says. “It’s a story told through emotions and materials. Jewellery can project a real or aspirational lifestyle.” * * * *

Spring into marriageWith the New Year comes a new begin-ning for you and your relationship. If you’re ready to pop the question to that special someone, the best thing you can do is be prepared. Between the ring, the actual pro-posal, and the upcoming wedding planning there is a lot to think about. By taking the proper steps you can be a prepared groom instead of a clueless bachelor.

The ringSelecting the perfect engagement ring can be nerve-wracking. First, determine if your fi-ancé prefers gold or silver jewellery. To keep it discreet, observe the pieces she wears everyday or take a peek in her jewellery box. Be aware of other options as well, such as platinum, palladium and rose gold. If you’re buying a diamond, know the 4Cs: cut, colour, clarity and carat. These are the

R U L E SO F

E n g a g E m E n T

criteria jewellers use when grading diamonds and they will influence price. Cut is important — the most popular choices are the round brilliant, princess, or square cuts. The easi-est way to know your fiancé’s preference is to ask. Grooms planning a secret proposal can ask a trusted friend or family member to accompany them when purchasing the ring. Don’t be afraid to think outside of the box. Current engage-ment ring trends include less traditional cuts, like oval and cushion cut, or coloured stones such as sapphire, emerald or ruby. Coloured and conflict-free diamonds are also gaining popularity. You can even customize your ring. Whatever route you choose, be sure to select a reputable jeweller who makes you feel comfortable and provides options within your budget.

Once you have the ring, be sure to store it in a safe place. A Jewelers Mutual Insurance Company survey of 659 recently engaged men found that 67 per cent of men stored their en-gagement ring at their home. If you’re worried your fiancé may stumble upon it, consider leaving the ring with your jeweller or in a safety deposit box at the bank until the big day. Because there are so many details that go into planning a proposal, it is easy to forget the most important step – insur-ing the ring! “There are not many elements of a proposal that you can insure, thankfully your valuable ring is one you can,” said Patrick Drummond, VP of sales and marketing. “Jewellery insurance is a quick, easy process. Applying directly after pur-chase is the most ideal time to get protection; it’s fast, easy and more affordable than you think.” > > > >

Five Tips for Protecting the RingBefore the Proposal• Store the ring in a safe place. 66 per cent of men reported in the survey that they stored the ring at their place of residence after pur chase. This is not a safe option. • Ensure she doesn’t fi nd it. Hiding the ring at home raises the potential that your future bride will discover it. Hiding the ring at a bank safety deposit box will prevent this from happening and also keep the ring safe from theft. • Document it. Don’t forget to write down an accurate appraisal of the ring. Make two copies and store one separate from your jewellery. Also include a photo of the ring. • Keep it with you and don’t leave it unattend ed. If traveling to a special destination for a proposal when you arrive at a hotel or res taurant, don’t hand your jewellery bag to hotel or restaurant staff. Carry it personally. • Insure it right. Jewelers Mutual provides personal jewellery protection against loss, damage, theft and mysterious disappearance wherever your travels take you. So get the right insurance, relax and wait for the “Yes!” * * * *

The proposalThe only thing perhaps more nerve-wracking than selecting the perfect ring is pulling off the perfect proposal. If planning a grand spectacle, try to keep it hush-hush; telling the proposal plan ahead of time and blowing the surprise is the biggest proposal don’t. Be sure to gauge your fi ancé’s personality to determine if she’d be into a creative stunt or prefer a more inti-mate experience. Before you get down on one knee, have a loose plan of where you’d like to propose. Pick a location that is meaningful to your fi ancé or your relationship. Consider including special de-tails, such as her favorite song or fl owers. You might want to arrange for a friend or photogra-pher to hide out nearby to snap a photo or video of the moment that she’ll remember forever. There is no need to memorize a big speech, but if you’re nervous it can be helpful to make a list beforehand of things you would like to say. Just remember the magic words – “Will you marry me?”

The weddingAfter she says yes, don’t worry about choosing a date right away. If you and your fi ancé have your hearts set on a location, it is best to coordinate with the venue and let their availabil-ity be a guide. If location doesn’t matter, you can start by narrowing down your search to a season. Keep in mind that the average engagement lasts 14 months and there are endless options from destination weddings to eloping. To help stay on track consider seeking the services of a wedding planner to handle ad-ditional details and vendors. For the DIY set, consult wedding websites, blogs, magazines and books that provide tips on planning your big day. Your bride will appreciate the help and it could help relieve stress as your big day approaches. Take the time to enjoy every moment from, “Will you marry me?” to “I do”, it will happen faster than you think.

F o r o v e r 5 0 0 y e a r s , the Le Vian name has been synonymous with crafting some of the world’s most exquisite jewellery, however, present-day CEO Eddie Le Vian has breathed new life into the centuries-old family dynasty. Known for their stunning, sometimes whimsical, eye-catching creations, Le Vian reveals that the impetus behind the creation of chocolate diamonds was an advertising salesman who would visit regularly and bring chocolate on every visit. “He was so passionate about it…through him I understood the passion that most people have for chocolate and how it is related to sexuality.” “As we looked for ways to brand the brown diamonds, it became clear that the passion for chocolate is key.” Since then, the married father of two has integrated this marketing ap-proach into what has become the company trademark. Along the way, Blackberry Diamonds, Cotton Candy Amethysts, Vanilla Diamonds, Straw-berry Gold and Parisian Honeycomb have joined the Le Vian lexicon. “These brands have be-come part of our edible brands of gems and jewellery, each of which has particular meaning,” Le Vian describes how each “edible” material is meticulously matched with a design. “Choco-late Diamonds work best when combined with rich colours, like Strawberry Gold or with coloured gems such as the Cotton Candy Amethyst.” His innovation and imagination have rejuvenated not only his brand, but his favourite gemstones, as well. Le Vian’s continuous ability to re-invent the brand, while staying ahead of the trends, has given the company longevity, setting it apart from the alternative mass-market fine jewellery houses. With his combined background in business and gemmology, Eddie Le Vian has been happy to be the key motivator behind the company’s designs.

Eddie Le Vian.indd 2 2013-01-23 9:46 AM

While his campaign to bring Le Vian into the jewellery world as a frontrunner began with the idea of a tangible material such as chocolate, Eddie Le Vian also incorporated his business sense into the product, to make it an exclusive commodity. He received a business degree from Arizona State University, and earned diamond grading and gemmol-ogy certi� cations through the GIA. He honed his skills during a year of on-the-job training, � rst as a stonecutter and then as a jewellery salesman, � nally becoming a designer. Le Vian says he never lost sight of the future and a new consumer marketing direction. “A� er graduating from ASU, I realized that jewellery was being sold generically unlike other industries and as such, I started a branded division within the family’s centuries old business.”With the unique edible titles, Le Vian has helped bring the variety and company into the twenty-� rst century. No longer is the consumer purchasing a brown diamond; they are now purchasing a limited licensed piece. “The integration of our branding and product development is designed to continue to tell branches of the same story and resonates well with the consumer.” Le Vian is riding high on the sweetness of success, but the � rst signs of the company’s innovative streak was evident in the 1950s when the late Abdulrahim Le Vian emi-grated from Persia to the United States and set up shop in New York City. He revived the lost art of “invisible setting – a special technique that cuts grooves underneath the gems that slide into railroad tracks. The tightening of the tracks is done from below and is invisible,” explains Eddie Le Vian. “We also recently patented Parisian Honeycomb, a gem-stone cut that we developed using a combination of old-time practices with our own modern techniques to create a look that has never been done before.” In Le Vian’s eyes, these innovations have helped set Le Vian apart from other jewel-lery brands. “Originality is the key. Our branding and celebrity place-ment, as well as our global view of the production, add a high value to the designs that set them apart. And our lifetime certi� cation and warranty and trade privileges are unheard of at our level.” There are currently over 200 locations in Canada car-rying Le Vian, and that number is anticipated to increase to 300 by next year. Their customers run the gamut, from customers who appreciate the sparkle and dash of a Le Vian

creation, to the Hollywood elite who seek a piece to accentuate their star power. Actresses like Kerry Washing-ton, Angie Harmon and Emily Blunt were all recently spotted accessoriz-ing with pieces from Le Vian’s 14k Strawberry Gold collection – adorned with a variety of Vanilla and Choco-late diamonds. For 2013, Le Vian predicts that, “Neon and candy colours such as tangerine and yellow” will be popu-lar, as well as “gladiator-fashion, criss-crossing dimensional straps and chocolate diamond engagement rings.” “We love what we do and that mo-tivates us to keep the Le Vian brand and image alive and well throughout the world. Building beautiful, versa-tile jewellery that is kept in families for generations with our name signed inside is our key to immortality.” * * * *

“The integration of our branding and product development is

designed tocontinue

to tell branches ofthe same

story andresonates well with

the consumer.”

THINKING ABOUT BUYING A DIAMOND? IT’S TIME TO LEARN THE FOUR “C”S

C A R A T Carat refers to the metric measured weight of a diamond. Diamonds are weighed before setting, and the measure should be the same,however they’ve weighed.• 1.00 carat = 200 milligrams, or 1 gram = 5 carats• 1 carat equals 100 “points” (like cents in a dollar). People often refer to weight in “points.” You might hear a diamond referred to as a “75 point diamond,” which means it weighs 0.75 carat. Certain weights are more desired, and prices escalate noticeably per carat. C L A R I T Y

Clarity is based on an assessment of internal (inclusions) and surface features (scratches and blemishes) on the following criteria:• Size• Location of the inclusion• Colour of the inclusion• Number of inclusions• Contrast (visibility in their particular location)Grading of the clarity of a diamond is based on 10X (magnified 10 times actual size) magnification in good lighting, using a trained eye, and standardized terms:• Flawless: Nothing internally or externally visible.• Internally Flawless: Nothing internally visible under 10X magnification, but may have very minor surface features, such as very small scratches.• VVS-1: Very Very Small inclusions, very difficult to find under 10X, usually not under the table (the large centre facet at the top).• VVS-2: Very Very Small inclusions, difficult to find under 10X, must be very small if under the table.• VS-1: Very Small inclusions, somewhat difficult to see under 10X, small if in the table.• VS-2: Very Small inclusions, seen under 10X with little difficulty.• SI-1: Small Inclusions: Might be seen with some ease under 10X magnification.• SI-2: Small inclusions: Can be seen easily under 10X magnification, might be eye visible to good eyes. Can often be seen from the underside (pavilion).• I-1: Included: Features can be seen with the naked eye, but the diamond retains its brilliance.• I-2: Very noticeably included, Features are easily seen with the naked eye., and the diamond may have reduced brilliance.• I-3: Extremely obvious inclusions, reduced brilliance, and possible danger of breaking due to large fractures or other inclusions.

The time to make a decision about buying a diamond has arrived. It’s an exciting prospect: the opportunity to enter into a

long-term relationship with a beautiful gem. It seems complicated, but it isn’t.

What you need to know before buying a diamond is actually pretty basic. You should start with the four “C”s:

carat, clarity, colour, and cut. Each of these is importantin its own measure.

Diamond Guide.indd 2 2013-01-23 10:18 AM

C O L O U R

Ideally graded in indirect north light or equivalent lamp. This ensures that you don’t have the sun shining directly on the gem. The colour is a grade of the body colour of the gem, not the sparkle or brilliance.Most diamonds are graded alphabetically, (for obscure reasons there is no “A”, “B”, or “C”), so colour grades start at “D “(completely colourless), and range through“Z” (noticeably coloured). Prices are highest for “D” colour and decrease as we go down the alphabet to “Z”. Colours more strongly coloured than Z have enough colour to be attractive, and the prices start to go up at this colour range.Colour: FancyYellow, brown, and grey diamonds more intense than “Z” are called fancy.Diamond is found in many different colours:• Red is the rarest and most costly• Blue is next• Purple• Pink• Orange• Green• Brown• Chameleon: Green in light and at room temperature, and changing to yellow if left in the dark or heated.• Grey• White• Black is very inexpensive and is opaque. C U T

Cut grade is a term relating to the elements that make a diamondbrilliant, sparkly and lively to the viewer. Cut grade is based on aseries of criteria, but there is not a single standard. The factorsconsidered are generally the same for all: • Proportions• Symmetry• Polish • Light return/Light performance• BrillianceGemological Institute of America (GIA) uses a word-based system: Excellent, very good, good, fair, and poor. This is simple to follow. The American Gem Society (AGS) uses a number based system. Cut grade can affect price more than 50 per cent, from ideal to poorly cut. The shape is separate from cut grade. Round brilliant cut is the most commonly seen standard cut type (as opposed to cut grade), princess cut (square or rectangular) is the one of the next most common cut types, and there are hundreds of other cut types available. The shape of a diamond will affect price. The round brilliant cut is the most costly, whereas princess cut diamonds are less expensive. One additional factor that we look at these days is the “F” word: fl uorescenceis a property of a glow (usually blue) that might be seen when a diamond is exposedto ultraviolet rays. Diamonds can have anywhere from no fl uorescence todistinct fl uorescence. * * * *

T A G H e u e r and its brand ambassadors Cameron Diaz and Leonardo DiCaprio hosted a glamourous charity event in New York on November 11 to support Diaz’s partner char-ity UN Women, as well as NY Care’s Hurri-cane Sandy Relief Effort. The exclusive party was held in Cullman Hall of the Universe at the American Museum of Natural History, with a performance by the New York City ballet to kick off the evening. Five hundred guests from the business, fashion, media and entertainment industries were present at the gala, with the goal of raising funds for hurricane victims as well as awareness for gender equality and female empowerment across the globe. For every guest, TAG Heuer pledged $100 to each charity. The drive marks the first oc-casion Diaz and DiCaprio came together for a TAG Heuer celebrity event. Diaz wore the Link Lady Trilogy Limited Edition in steel, while DiCaprio sported the Link Limited Edition with blue dial.
