Colored Diamonds and the Sparkle of Celebrities

People always perceive diamonds as perpetual white. They only attain other colors when light shines upon them. What we all don't know, however, is that there are actually different colored diamonds available in the market. As to what have caused them to turn pink, yellow, or blue is left to the judgment of chemistry. The only sure thing is that these fancy-colored diamonds are gaining worldwide popularity, especially when they're worn by celebrities.

Sales for pink diamonds definitely increased when Jennifer Lopez, the original bling-bling girl, started to sport a huge pink diamond engagement ring from Harry Winston. Her wedding may not have ended in the altar, but it has begun people's shift of attention to other colored diamonds.

Then came Beyonce, whose sense of fashion always borders between flamboyance, sensuality, and elegance. At the Golden Globe Awards, she didn't only dazzle all of the guests with her presence and voice but also with her fancy-colored diamonds, with gold settings.

Paris Hilton-an heiress, socialite, and A-list celebrity-not only made headlines for her DUIs, arrest, and endless club hopping but also for her fashion sense. She got more famous when she started wearing a 24-carat fancy yellow diamond as an engagement ring. On the other hand, the supermodel and certified Victoria's Secret model Heidi Klum sealed her marriage with crooner Seal with a yellow diamond ring too. Other celebrities who own yellow-colored diamonds include Dennis Quaid; Rodney Jenkins, a famous producer; and Veronica Varekova, one of the world's supermodels.
