Some of Elizabeth Taylor’s Jewelry Will Be Auctioned Online

This December, Christie’s will auction off over 2,000 items that belonged to the late Elizabeth Taylor, 950 of which will be sold exclusively online from December 3 to 17 (the auction house has accommodated real-time bidding via the Internet since 2006, but it’s the first time they’re doing it as an alternative to a live auction for a private collection sale).

Meanwhile, there will be four days of live auctions for the remaining items, some of which will be displayed at Christie’s Rockefeller Plaza headquarters from December 3 to 12, so you can see them for yourself before they get snapped up and locked away in someone’s jewelry box.

Though silver is timeless, gold has a more summery feel, complementing tanned skin and bright colors. Part of Kate Spade’s monthly series, this gleaming June ring is a standout warm-weather accessory, with a shiny faceted centerpiece and twelve-karat gold-plated finish. It’s a refreshing departure from the blingy, grandma-chic cocktail rings that have been making a comeback in stores this season. This light-catching stone is striking but still feels sleek.

June ring, $78 at Kate Spade or online.
