Lapis lazuli is a colored stone that's always been a favorite, but is seeing an upwards move in popularity as jewelry trends take us towards a more natural, earthy look. Christine Taylor showed us some lovely lapis jewelry when she arrived on the Tropic Thunder red carpet with hubby Ben Stiller.

Christine wore a pair of drop earrings that end with lapis lazuli donuts. Now, these aren't your ordinary donut earrings -- diamonds and emeralds were used to create the drop, and more diamonds wrap around the donut to hold it in place. Everything is set in platinum.

She also wore a large diamond and platinum broach and a ring fashioned from lapis, diamonds and platinum. All of Christine's jewelry was by Neil Lane.

Lapis Jewelry Options

Diamonds and emeralds are high end, and so's the platinum, but lapis lazuli looks good mixed with nearly any other gemstone (especially opaque stones). You'll find affordable lapis jewelry set with sterling silver and gold, and combined with turquoise, pearls, carnelian, malachite, black onyx and other less costly gems.
