Duke's Pearls: Bernard and Doris star stuns the red carpet at the Golden Globes

The Golden Globes returned with much pazazz this year after being cancelled last year. As usual, the question of who was wearing what on the red carpet generated as much buzz as the awards themselves. If you looked past the glitzy gowns and shining sapphires, you might have noticed, as I did, the timeless elegance of Susan Sarandon, who had donned with pride a Fred Leighton exclusive long pearl necklace.At one point Sarandon actually begged the powers that be that gave her the necklace to wear if she could keep it.Well wouldn't you? Her 32" string looked both modern and elegant around her neck.

You might say that the fact that Sarandon, still stunning at 62, was the only A-list celebrity at the Globes to be wearing pearls, means that we're going back to the days of pearls being the jewels of choice for the "older" woman?Hell no! Pearl jewellery has a timeless elegance and charm if you know how to wear it. The trick is to do as the celebrities do and be picky!A word of caution - you need to be wary of the many low grade and poorly fashioned eBay pearls out there. If you’re on a budget, go for natural freshwater pearls which can be beautiful. But for the true celeb treatment you should spend that little extra on saltwater pearls, the choice of Susan Sarandon on Sunday night.

Susan Sarandon follows a long line of Hollywood pearl loving superstars over the last 50 years. I’m sure you’ll agree, each of them are classy in their own way and yet very different characters.Proof, if proof was needed, that it should be pearls, not diamonds, that are a girl's best friend?

5. Jackie Kennedy - JFK's missus knew a thing or two about looking good - and she knew a thing or two about pearls too, they were key to her iconic image of 20th Century sophisticated womanhood.
4. Liz Taylor - the epitome of all things glamorous and elegant in her day, Elizabeth Taylor gained royal status in the pearl kingdom by owning the world's largest pearl necklace, La Peregrina, as worn by a whole range of European queens and princesses!
3. Sarah Jessica Parker - she has set many a style trend amongst 21st century women, and has been largely responsible for the resurgence of celebrity pearl chic.
2. Princess Diana – Lady Di’s elegant image had much to do with her attachment to high class pearl jewellery, necklaces and pearl-adorned outfits.
1. Audrey Hepburn – Who can forget the classy black dress and simple pearl necklace in Breakfast at Tiffany's? She is arguably THE style icon of the 20th century, and will forever be associated with pearls.
