.
Stars in search of Emmys jewelry got the chance to browse Tacori's new 18k925 collection during a party at L.A.'s Sunset Tower Hotel. Guests like bride-to-be Christina Hendricks-whose wedding rings were designed by Tacori-and Jennifer Finnigan joined host Ali Larter for the big reveal of the line, which combines 18-karat gold and 925 silver metal, a special mix of platinum and palladium. Jewelry worn by Larter during the event, which was sponsored by Veuve Clicquot and The Argyle Spa, was auctioned off to raise money for The Art of Elysium.

Self-confessed jewelry junkie Debra Messing (in Max Mara) was among the guests at a pre-Emmy dinner hosted by Kelly Katz and famed jeweler Martin Katz. "This is how I want to be all the time, every day,” Messing gushed while she browsed Katz' new Everlon Knot collection. After a dinner of mini-burgers, short ribs and potato puree catered by Wolfgang Puck's Chinois, Messing and fellow guests like Jennifer Carpenter and Anne Heche got their just desserts-each was treated to a Martin Katz diamond micro band compliments of their host.
