Jewel Toned Dresses

MISSE

When getting dressed up for that company party, class reunion or cocktail party the classic choice is

the little black dress.

statement and really standing out is on your agenda, it’s good to look for the hot trend of the moment

and make it your own. This holiday season the timeless LBD is being left in the closet by the

fashionably minded for something a little brighter. One of the best choices of the trendy this winter is

jewel toned dresses

. Fashion editors and Hollywood stars alike are looking to gem stones as their

inspiration for their go to party dress this year.

Emerald

While red heads need to proceed with caution wearing purple, emerald green is an awesome option

for them. This sparkling deep green can also look fabulous on dark brunettes and fair blonds. Green

is a great for those looking to stand out in the crowd.

Sapphire Blue

A deep sapphire blue is one of my favorite colors. This rich color is flattering on everyone and a

super hot choice for winter.

Numerous actresses at the 2010 SAG Awards shook up the red carpet with surprising,

saturated jewel tones. What are the celebrities wearing?

Diane Kruger, part of the winning cast of the film "Inglorious Basterds," stretched the standard

color spectrum with a deep-citrine dress. Young American designer Jason Wu (of Michelle

Obama's Inaugural ballgown fame) designed the sensuous, one-shouldered gown. Come to

think of it, her dress pairs perfectly with this year's citrine-encrusted Award Show Season

compact by L'Oreal.

Lea Michele, breakout "Glee" star, chose a bright emerald, draped column dress by Malandrino.

The songbird also incorporated both the ruffle and décolletage trends from last Sunday's

Golden Globes with her plunging neckline and heavily ruffled cap sleeves. Her choice of jewelry

was more unique; instead of loading up on sparklers, she stacked a couple of blue and green

enameled bangles by Jean Schlumberger for Tiffany & Co.

Anna Kendrick, who sparred with George Clooney in "Up In the Air," landed in a vivid amethyst

silk chiffon bustier dress by Alberta Ferretti. Proving again that purple is a huge color for this

award show season.

"Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" star Mariska Hargitay broke out a tourmaline-pink Vera

Wang halter dress. And despite Chloë Sevigny's Golden Globes mishap, Hargitay braved a

ruffled train.

Even "Golden Girl" Betty White -- this year's recipient of the Life Achievement Award --

bolstered the trend with her flowing turquoise chiffon -- despite joking to USA Today that since

she's hardly a fashionista, she should send just the dress to the ceremony!
