Kidman is one lucky lady! Attending the 2008 Academy Awards, Kidman accessorized her LBD with a jaw-dropping $7 million necklace created just for her by L'Wren Scott, featuring over 7,500 diamonds worth an estimated 1,400 carats. It was reported to have taken 6,200 hours to hand craft.











Heidi Klum


With a 10-carat center diamond worth over $1 million on its own, Klum's Lorraine Schwartz 200-carat necklace made of black diamonds is surely one of the most expensive red carpet pieces worn on the red carpet. Adding extra sparkle to the Project Runway hostess' Golden Globes look in 2014 were black diamond earrings and a black diamond ring, also by Schwartz.







Kristen Stewart


Premiering Twilight: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 in L.A. in 2011, the film franchise's leading lady spared no expense to wow on the red carpet. Dressed to the nines in a long, sequined J. Mendel gown with a sexy thigh-high slit, Stewart accessorized with a amethyst, diamond and platinum ring by Neil Lane worth an estimated $38,000.

Nabbing a 2014 Best Actress Golden Globe for her work in American Hustle, Lawrence sparkled in Neil Lane's elegant black and white art deco jewelry, including pieces like diamond, jade, coral and platinum chandelier earrings and four white and black diamond bracelets.

Angelina Jolie


Pen in hand, Jolie was ready to sign autographs for well-wishers as she walked the red carpet with fiance Brad Pitt at the 2013 Germany premiere of his film World War Z. On her left hand?

Reese Witherspoon


What a look on Reese!
