History of The Vibrant & Colourful

Be inspired by sapphires, emeralds and rubys


In this blog, I will not be going on about celebrities overpriced jewellery. Well I might.. but I will be giving alternatives which are affordable and of course, by the Real Effect.

Emma Stone

Emma Stone: Tiffany & Co necklace

The beautiful Emma Stone wore a sparkling Tiffany & Co diamond choker at the Golden Globe Award 2017. Any going out occasion is not complete without jewellery. Some silver, gold, diamond, sapphires, rubies and oversized pieces, make a complete look.

Alternative: I have chosen our captivating interlocking tear-drop centrepiece with luxurious tear-drop cubic zirconia stones as Emma Stones, Tiffany & Co necklace replacement. This necklace ranges from £100. The clear glistening cubic zirconia tear drop becomes a huge statement with a life like glow. Perfect for an ‘awards’ night or a formal/special occasion.

Chrissy Teigen

Chrissy Teigen: Schwartz earrings

The wonderful Chrissy Teigen wore these long drop earring from Schwartz. These ruby coloured long drop earrings at the Golden Globe awards 2017. The gorgeous blend of colours makes a perfect complexion.

Alternative: We have chosen these beautiful vintage inspired stretched diamond drop earrings, filled with glistening stone-sets as an alternative to Chrissy’s award earrings. I have chosen this because of the similar shape, and the beautiful glowing stones.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus

Julia Louis-Dreyfus: Chopard’s “High Jewellery Collection” earrings and cuff

Julia Louis-Dreyfus wore a beautiful pair of rectangular stud diamond earrings, with a diamond cuff both from Chopard’s “High Jewellery Collection”. The beautiful jewellery contrasts excellently with her silver glowing tassel dress. Her jewellery pieces where kept at a reasonable size, keeping the outfit classy, elegant and sophisticated. This is by far one of my favourite outfits from the Golden Globe Awards 2017.

Alternative: As an alternative to Julia’s drop earrings, I have chosen the REAL EFFECT’s sparkling hand finished bar earring, crafted from sterling silver and cubic zirconia embellishments. These earrings are beautifully crafted, and are set at an affordable price from just £40.

Dont worry, I have also chosen an alternative for the diamond ring! I of course have chosen a piece from the REAL EFFECT collection; and this ring ranges from just £40! I have chosen the delightful marquise ring, hand finished with a stone-set outline and a sparkling marquise cubic zirconia centered stone.

It features a staggering 18 carat sapphire surrounded by gleaming diamonds.

The sapphire is September birthstone. Sapphire is known as a ‘precious gem of wisdom, loyalty and nobility. It is said to focus the mind, encourage self-discipline and channel higher powers’.
