68th Golden Globe Awards revealed a number of key trends

From gowns in a rainbow of pinks to emerald green, one-shoulder sheaths to full-length sleeves, the fashions on display at Sunday night's 68th Golden Globe Awards revealed a number of key trends. For jewelry, it seemed that most stylists and their stars received a similar style memo: choose either simple earlobe-hugging earrings or large, nearly shoulder-grazing pairs, matched with a bracelet or two.

Golden Globes winner Claire Danes, recognized for her role in the HBO miniseries Temple Grandin, went this route, pairing a yellow gold and diamond cuff with small diamond and platinum drop earrings, all from Fred Leighton. Black Swan actress Mila Kunis, one of a handful of stars to wear emerald green to the Globes, went with a bracelet and earring combo, too, selecting a yellow gold and diamond cuff and diamond stud earrings from Lorraine Schwartz. And Mad Men's January Jones, who wowed in a barely there Versace, was another actress to go the popular jewelry silhouette, selecting diamond and platinum column earrings and a trio of diamond and platinum bangle bracelets from Neil Lane.

Meanwhile, right-hand rings don't show any sign of going out of fashion, as quite a few stars topped off their earrings and bracelet combinations with a ring—or a few. Annette Bening, one of the evening's big winners for her role in The Kids Are All Right, wore a diamond and black onyx cuff bangle, diamond cluster earrings and two diamond cocktail rings. Catherine Zeta-Jones, whose husband Michael Douglas presented the final award of the night, looked to Van Cleef & Arpels for her "Crescendo" diamond bracelet, "Laureen" diamond ring and "Eliza" earrings, the latter featuring 26.8 carats total weight of round-, pear- and marquis-shaped diamonds. Presenter Jennifer Lopez went with a jewelry trio, too: a diamond cuff with over 600 diamonds, plus cluster earrings and a diamond suspension ring, all in platinum from Harry Winston.

Necklaces were fewer on the evening's stage, but they did get some very high-profile exposure. Natalie Portman, Golden Globe winner for Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture, accessorized her strapless Viktor & Rolf gown with a multi-row diamond necklace set in platinum, topped off with oval diamond stud earrings in platinum and a diamond ring in 18-karat white gold, all from Tiffany & Co. Presenters Helen Mirren and Kaley Cuoco hit the stage in necklaces, too, with Mirren wearing a platinum and cascading diamond necklace from Cartier, and Cuoco donning a 29-carat oval-shape diamond necklace in platinum from Chopard.
