Why we love it: This look “blue” us away with ranges of Aquamarine to Sapphire permeating the intricate pattern and textures of the architectural design.

What: Matthew Williamson clutch
Why we love it: Pantone has declared that the 2013 color of the year is Emerald, and we’re green with excitement (and envy) over this gorgeous jewel-toned suede party clutch. The bling-y border makes it quite a statement piece.

What: Carmen Marc Valvo runway look
Why we love it: Is it more Ruby or Garnet? Either way, we love this flowing floor-grazing skirt – it looks perfect for a formal holiday happening. It also looks so festive with this simple cut top, which subtly suggests all of those pretty Pearls, Opals and Diamonds to us.
