Signature style: I love to layer silver chains. I don’t leave home without my current necklace stack, which consists of three David Yurman necklaces. I like to play with lengths so that each chain plays well with others while getting its shine.
First piece of jewelry: My parents finally got married when I was 7 years old. When they exchanged rings they included me by giving me a silver nameplate bracelet that said “Moody.” I remember cherishing it and wanting to keep it safe forever.
Iconic red-carpet moment: I styled Beyoncé for the Atlantis [The Royal] hotel grand opening in Dubai — that was the epitome of iconic. She wore 57-carat Messika diamond earrings! They were insanely beautiful; I’ve never seen anything like them.
Dream jewel: I’ve always wanted “brown sugar” emerald-cut diamonds. I just haven’t decided if I want it in a ring, earrings or necklace. Maybe, a tennis bracelet…
Style tip: Let it speak to you and fall in love with it. If you’re going to wear it almost every day, make sure it’s multifunctional and can be worn in multiple settings with a majority of your clothing choices.

Signature style: I like to mix it up, vintage with contemporary and playful. I never leave the house without something sentimental, such as my mother’s marquise diamond from her engagement ring that I wear on a skinny gold necklace and my grandmother’s wedding band stacked with colorful rings.
First piece of jewelry: A little red enamel and gold heart ring from my father for Valentine’s Day.
Jewelry splurge: A gold Cartier Baignoire watch, which I bought long before it became popular. Even in my 20s, I knew to invest in the best classics.
Iconic red-carpet moment: Elizabeth Taylor wearing the jaw-dropping 69.42-carat diamond drop necklace, known as the Taylor-Burton or Cartier diamond, to the 1970 Oscars. It was so glamorous and so Hollywood.
Dream jewel: I have so many, but among them are a Verdura Maltese cuff
Styling tip: Give your old jewels a new life: Take your grandmother’s brooch and wear it as a pendant or remove the emeralds from a ring and make drop earrings. There are so many possibilities

Signature style: Vintage with classic — every piece always has a story.
First piece of jewelry: A gold butterfly necklace from my mom, who used to wear it when I was little. It’s very sentimental.
Iconic red-carpet moment: A favorite classic moment would be when Princess Diana went to her first and only Met Gala in 1996, dressed in a John Galliano for Christian Dior jewel tone blue slip dress, adorned with her own sapphire and pearl choker with sapphire and diamond drops. My love of blue could be inspired by this memorable look.
Dream jewel: I have always dreamed of owning any of the aquamarine Art Deco jewels by Cartier, like the aquamarine tiara that Elsie de Wolfe dyed her hair to match.
Styling tip: Storing jewelry correctly matters, damage can happen to even diamonds. Make sure to divide earrings into separate bags or compartments. And find a good friend who can untangle your necklaces for you. That is an impressive talent.
