Fall is here, and you know what that means—celebs are about to step out in the season’s hottest trends, and jewelry is no exception. Whether they’re hitting the red carpet or keeping it low-key on the streets, stars are always giving us serious accessory envy. This season is all about statement pieces, unexpected pairings, and timeless classics making a big comeback. The best part? You don’t have to break the bank to look like your favorite stars. Here’s what to expect and how to get the look. Diamond Hoop Earrings Are a Must You know those sleek, sparkling hoops everyone’s been rocking? Yeah, they’re still trending hard. But this fall, it’s all about taking them to the next level. Celebs are going bigger, bolder, and shinier, proving that diamond hoop earrings  are a must. We’re talking hoops that catch the light from across the room, adding a touch of glam to even the most casual fits. Whether you see them worn at big award shows or during laid-back coffee runs, these earrings are the accessory for fall. But here’s the kicker—you don’t need red-carpet invites to rock these. Look for similar hoops that give you that celeb-level shine without the crazy price tag. The trick? Pair them with your favorite fall layers, like an oversized sweater or a sleek leather jacket. Hoops instantly take any outfit from basic to bold, and you can go as big (or as small) as you like. It’s the season to sparkle, after all. Rings? Stack 'Em Up Rings are having a major moment this season, and not just one—think stacks upon stacks. This trend is all about mixing metals, stones, and styles to create a look that feels personal yet luxe. Celebrities have been spotted layering delicate rings with chunky statement pieces, giving off an effortless “I woke up like this” vibe. And trust us, you can look like Dua Lipa  with the right combination of rings. To get the look, start with your favorites—maybe a dainty gold band you always wear—and build from there. Add in rings with cool gemstones or unique shapes, and don’t be afraid to mix silver with gold. The key is variety. You want your fingers to look decorated but not too matchy-matchy. And here’s the best part: you can easily adjust the vibe depending on the occasion. Keep it simple for a workday, or go all out for a night out. Layering Necklaces Is Still Hot Layered necklaces are one of those trends that just won’t quit. And why should they? This look is all about versatility and personal style, which is why you’ll still be seeing your fave celebs piling on multiple chains this fall. Thin chains, chunky links, and pendants of all shapes and sizes—it’s the perfect way to add dimension and personality to any outfit. The beauty of necklace layering is that you can easily make it your own. Start with a couple of longer chains and then add a shorter, more delicate one to balance things out. Want to get the full celeb effect? Throw on a statement pendant or two. Stars like Rihanna have been known to mix high and low pieces, so don’t feel like you have to splurge on every piece. The goal here is layering and playing with different textures to create that effortlessly chic look that never goes out of style. Cuffs and Bangles Are In This fall, bracelets are getting a serious upgrade. Gone are the days of dainty wrist wear—now it’s all about chunky cuffs and bold bangles. Whether you’re seeing them stacked or worn solo, these pieces are designed to stand out. Celebs are loving this trend because it makes a statement without trying too hard, perfect for those who want to make an impact without overthinking their accessories. To pull this off, think about balance. If you’re going with a big cuff or bangle, keep the rest of your look simple. Or, if you’re feeling daring, try pairing multiple bold bracelets on one wrist for a maximalist vibe. It’s all about adding that extra punch to your outfit, whether you’re in a cozy fall knit or your go-to little black dress. Bracelets are the ultimate fall accessory for anyone looking to take their outfit to the next level without too much effort. The Return of the Brooch Yes, you read that right— brooches  are making a comeback, and it’s not just your grandma’s favorite accessory anymore. Celebs have been spotted pinning them onto everything from coats to scarves, giving this old-school piece a fresh, modern twist. The new wave of brooches is all about bold designs, quirky details, and unexpected placements. So, how do you pull off this trend without looking like you’re raiding a vintage store? It’s all about pairing the brooch with modern pieces. Think about pinning one onto a leather jacket or adding a fun, decorative pin to a wool scarf. It’s an easy way to inject some personality into your fall wardrobe, and it’s totally customizable. Whether you go for a quirky design or something a little more elegant, the brooch is the underrated accessory you didn’t know you needed this season. Fall Jewelry to Watch For From diamond hoops that steal the spotlight to bold bracelets and brooches making a surprise return, the jewelry trends this fall are all about making a statement. Celebs are leading the way with their bold choices, and the best part is you can totally replicate their looks without going overboard on your budget. So, whether you’re into stacking rings, layering necklaces, or rocking a bold bangle, this fall’s jewelry trends are designed to help you stand out. Time to level up your accessory game and shine like the stars you admire. By ML staff. Image courtesy of Pexels.

In September 2024, Jaeger-LeCoultre introduced a new artistic interpretation of Calibre 184. Created in 2019, this exceptional movement unites the smallest version of the bi-axial Gyrotourbillon with a highly intuitive perpetual calendar, a minute repeater that sounds the Westminster chime, a one-minute constant force mechanism, a dead-beat minute hand, and a leaping date display. The Master Hybris Artistica Calibre 184 will be unveiled in 18-Karat pink gold (750/1000) during the Precision Pioneer exhibition in Beijing in September, to be followed by a variant in white gold (750/1000) (18 Karats). The timepiece will be a limited edition of five pieces of each variant. Inspired to meet the highest challenges of horology Jaeger-LeCoultre created its Hybris collection to bring together some of the highest watchmaking skills in a single piece. The timepieces that are designated Hybris Artistica complement the exceptional mechanics with sophisticated and complex artistic decoration. Calibre 184 unites three of the greatest complications in the history of watchmaking – each of which represents a pillar of Jaeger-LeCoultre’s watchmaking mastery: sound, precision and astronomical complications. In addition, the Hybris Artistica interpretation showcases the Grand Feu enamelling skills of the Manufacture’s Métiers Rares™ atelier ­as well as the craft of lacquering. Underlining the extraordinary sophistication of Calibre 184, it takes approximately five months to assemble its 1052 components. Very few watchmakers have mastered such a high level of skill and a single watchmaker works on the entire process from start to finish. An artistic reinterpretation of the finest watchmaking skills Complex and visually intriguing, the dial of the Master Hybris Artistica Calibre 184 is an essay in harmony and contrast. Soft curves contrast with the rectilinear geometry of the decoration; textured surfaces contrast with high shine; visual complexity is anchored by a restrained bi-colour palette. The dials feature decorative plates of black Grand Feu enamel with a geometric pattern of fine lines, set on both sides of the sub-dial that displays the time and perpetual calendar. The centre of this sub-dial is a smoky black, semi-transparent sapphire that allows an intriguing glimpse of the calendar discs. The open-worked lower half of the dial is dominated by the visually mesmerising Gyrotourbillon, on each side of which the repeater hammers are set like wings. Set beneath them, the distinctively curved gongs are treated with black, to harmonise perfectly with the overall colour palette. In keeping with the complexity of this timepiece, the Grande Tradition case comprises more than 80 components, with polished, brushed and micro-blasted finishes highlighting its sculptural form. For the Master Hybris Artistica Calibre 184, Jaeger-LeCoultre’s designers have used the case-sides as a canvas to link to the new dial decoration, adding a plate on each side of the case featuring the same geometric pattern as the dial, executed in black lacquer. On the case, the attention to detail extends to the manner of operating the minute repeater. Rather than the traditional slider or a simple push-button, the designers developed a retractable pusher that is mounted flush with the case to preserve its elegant lines. An exceptional calibre uniting three great complications Calibre 184 features the fifth iteration of the Gyrotourbillon, which returns to the original form of the 2004 Gyrotourbillon design. However, the mechanism has been completely re-engineered and its size significantly reduced. The reduced size made it possible to incorporate a minute repeater without adding much thickness to the calibre. Remarkably, the 94 components making up the Gyrotourbillon weigh just 0.4 grams. In watchmaking, precision depends on the delivery of a consistent power supply to the regulating organ and Jaeger-LeCoultre’s engineers have incorporated a one-minute constant force mechanism to ensure a consistent flow of energy to the Gyrotourbillon. Because it causes the minute hand to beat every 60 seconds (in similar way to a dead-beat seconds hand) the constant force mechanism also has a significant benefit for the minute repeater. Normally, if the minute repeater is activated at any point between minutes, it will chime the time a minute fast or slow. Thanks to the beating minute hand, it will always chime the precise minute shown by the hand. The minute repeater of Calibre 184 plays the Westminster carillon – the melody made famous by the clocktower housing Big Ben at London's Westminster Palace. This chime is rarely found in watchmaking due to the complexity of the mechanism needed to achieve it. Four hammers are required, rather than the usual two, and in Calibre 184, they are stacked in pairs so that they strike the gongs from the same angle. In mastering chiming mechanisms, Jaeger-LeCoultre has focused on ways to improve the sound, and Calibre 184 features several patented inventions: the trébuchet hammers, which strike the gong more solidly, and the crystal gongs, so named because they are connected directly to the front crystal, enabling a cleaner transfer of the sound and increased volume. The mechanism also incorporates Jaeger-LeCoultre’s signature time-lapse reduction mechanism, which ensures a smooth cadence no matter what time it is chiming. Moreover, the minute repeater calibre features two distinctive characteristics: The gongs are curved outwards to meet the hammer at its natural strike point, and they have a square variable profile, providing a larger strike area that enables a cleaner strike. The perpetual calendar is a fine example of Jaeger-LeCoultre’s mastery of astronomical complications, as it takes into account the differences between the cycles of the heavenly bodies and the units of standard civil timekeeping. Consequently, the calendar needs manual adjustment only in centennial years that are not also leap years. The first time that this will be required is the year 2100. The operation of the perpetual calendar of Calibre 184 is both innovative and highly intuitive, allowing the date to be re-set either backwards or forwards. The layout of the calendar indications is equally intuitive. Set into the hours and minutes dial, three small windows display the year, month, and day, while the date is shown on a ring surrounding the sub-dial. The spaces between dates are perfectly uniform, except for 16 and 17, which are separated by 60 degrees. Every month, the date indicator hand leaps from one to the other, ensuring that the Gyrotourbillon isn’t obscured. Viewed through the sapphire case-back, the reverse side of the movement is no less compelling. The plates have been open-worked to allow a view deep into the calibre, including a full view of the Gyrotourbillon, as well as the governor for the minute repeater, which uses friction and centripetal force to regulate the speed at which the time is chimed and reduces the silent intervals between chimes. In keeping with the elevated level of the mechanics and the exceptional artistic craftsmanship of this timepiece, the movement features superlative hand-finishing. The bridges are hand-bevelled; sunrayed Côtes de Genève radiate out from the perpetual calendar’s anchor-point; and heat-blued screws are set into hand-bevelled and polished sinks. Several bridges are micro-blasted, to create a pleasing textural contrast with the movement’s polished elements. Uniting three great watchmaking complications with an exceptional degree of craftsmanship and artistry, the Master Hybris Artistica Calibre 184 is eloquent testimony to the 180 skills housed within the Manufacture and reconfirms the place that Jaeger-LeCoultre holds in the world of haute horlogerie as the ‘Watchmaker of Watchmakers’™.

Chambers hails from the US, making her the perfect fit to be teaming up with American icon, Ford Motor Company. Ford has been racing since the company’s inception and continues to expand its presence in a diverse portfolio of series around the world from Le Mans to Dakar and from Daytona to Bathurst. Ford is also partnering with Oracle Red Bull Racing as it works towards the brand’s return to F1 in 2026 with Red Bull Ford Powertrains.

The Mustang Challenge sees drivers up to FIA silver ratings compete on a level playing field against other Mustang Dark Horse R cars. In the F1 Academy series drivers can only participate in the series for two years before stepping in to their next phase. The Red Bull Ford Academy Programme Team would like to thank current driver Emely de Heus for her commitment and hard work over the 2024 season and for her overall contribution to the programme. Christian Horner, CEO & Team Principal of Oracle Red Bull Racing said: “Continuing our partnership with Ford as a title sponsor of the Red Bull Academy Programme is hugely exciting and further cements their commitment to female participation in motorsports.

Red Bull and Ford share common values and are united in providing more opportunities for young and emerging talent in motorsports, and we can’t wait to see Chloe hit the track in Red Bull Ford colours in 2025.” Mark Rushbrook, Global Director of Ford Performance Motorsport said: “It’s so great to welcome Chloe to the Ford family as she joins the Red Bull Ford Academy Programme. Chloe is not only a real racing talent but also has the ability to race in different series and to see her lining up in the Mustang Challenge in our Dark Horse R is really cool. To have an American driver representing an iconic American brand is the perfect scenario for us and we are excited for all that 2025 will hold. This partnership is also part of a much larger relationship that we now enjoy with Red Bull across many race series and our partnership is getting stronger all the time.” Chloe Chambers said: “I am thrilled to be driving for the Red Bull Ford Academy Programme for the upcoming 2025 season. As an American driver, it is an honour to team up with an iconic American automotive company like Ford. It is a privilege to be partnering with the Red Bull Ford Academy Programme to continue improving female representation in the sport, and I am grateful for the support to achieve my own career goals in motorsport. I am excited to take part in the Ford Mustang Challenge this week and to have more opportunities to race outside of my role in F1 Academy. My focus for the rest of the year remains on delivering performance with Haas, but I’m looking forward to the next chapter in 2025 with the Red Bull Ford Academy Programme.” About Ford Motor Company Ford Motor Company (NYSE: F) is a global company based in Dearborn, Michigan, committed to helping build a better world, where every person is free to move and pursue their dreams.

Tina McCall-Waters, USTA Florida’s Volunteer of the Month for September, has spent the last 20 years making an enduring impact on the Eatonville community through tennis.  As a volunteer, she has dedicated her time and energy to teaching children the sport, helping them build skills that extend far beyond the court. Her efforts have touched the lives of hundreds of kids.  This past summer, Tina made a significant contribution by coaching around 200 kids through the Denton Johnson Tennis Program. This program is a collaboration of three key organizations within Eatonville: The Boys & Girls Club of Eatonville, LaShunda Tots, and EsteemLearning. Tina’s leadership and dedication have helped these children develop their tennis abilities and, more importantly, their confidence and sense of community.  Tina’s love for tennis started early and at the age of 10, she won her first junior tournament at the Orlando Tennis Center, which really helped shaped her future in the sport. Since then, she has gone on to have a remarkable career. She was the first Black female to receive an athletic scholarship at Indiana University and was one of the pioneers that built Indiana Women’s Tennis into an amazing program. She was a two-time First-Team All-American and a three-time First-Team All-Big Ten and led the team to three Big Ten Championships. She was inducted into Indiana University’s Hall of Fame for tennis in 2023.  Tina’s accomplishments extend far off the courts. She recently published her first book, Give Back and Laugh Out Loud, which reflects her personal philosophy of giving back and finding joy in the process. When she’s not on the court, she can be found coaching Special Olympics at Magnolia School, another example of her unwavering commitment to service.  Reflecting on her more than 20 years of volunteering, Tina loves to put smiles on other people’s faces. “I love giving back and I’m able to help someone else learn the game of tennis and have the window of opportunities open for them,” she said.  Tina’s story is one of service, passion, and giving back. Through tennis, she has opened doors for many young athletes in Eatonville, leaving a legacy that will continue to inspire future generations.  USTA Florida congratulates Tina McCall-Waters and thanks her for spending countless hours helping children learn the game of tennis. Eatonville is lucky to have her and Tina has deserved the honor of USTA Florida September Volunteer of the month.  Interested in volunteering in tennis?
