Celebrity Diamond Spotlight:
Blake Lively

Blake Lively isn’t one to shy away from eye-catching natural diamond jewels. From statement earrings to layers of pave chains, the actress and entrepreneur loves a good diamond accessory. It certainly doesn’t hurt that she has a close relationship with Lorraine Schwartz, Hollywood A-listers’ go-to jeweler—Beyoncé even name-drops Schwartz in her song “My House.”

Whether walking the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival or supporting her husband at one of his movie premieres, Lively is always dripping in natural diamonds. Most often it’s an earring, perfectly complementing her cascading blonde hair. Even at the launch event of her haircare line Blake Brown, she wore a pair of statement earrings that peeked out perfectly behind her blowout.

Lively’s press tour for her highly anticipated film It Ends With Us, has given us a plethora of stunning, floral-themed outfits to honor her film’s character Lily Bloom, who owns a flower shop. From dresses to jewels, Lively has opted for color, bold designs, and plenty of sparkle.

Lively famously does not work with a stylist, preferring to pick out her own looks and accessories, and has created some very memorable ensembles over the years. “I love design and I love fashion and it’s a way to be creative,” she told WWD in 2018. “In my job, I get to be creative, but it’s over a period of time and so many other people are involved, whereas this is a beginning, middle, and end, and I get to be creative and there’s an end date in the near future.”

Ahead, take a look at some of Lively’s best natural diamond jewelry looks from over the years.

Lively chose a few Brent Neale pieces to wear on and off screen during her It Ends With Us press tour and in the movie itself. She wore the designer’s Flower Pendant with Single Diamond during a video promotion and also wore the Knot Ring with heart-shaped diamonds in the film. “I didn’t know that Blake was going to be wearing anything of ours in film actually, I walked into the movie theatre totally unaware,” Brent Neale shares exclusively with Only Natural Diamonds. “My husband came with me and he spotted the Knot ring right away actually before me! To see your pieces on the big screen—I don’t know how to describe it but I’ll never forget it. She is the kindest most thoughtful person and I think she knew when she asked if we wanted to come to the screening me that it be would be better as a surprise! And it was.”
