VMA Jewelry Trends: MTV, Meat and Mischief

September 13, 2010

Lady Gaga's controversial 'meat dress' was the loudest fashion statement at the 2010 VMA Awards, but rocker-chic jewelry in black and blue also won the night. Check out the trends - and the tri-tip.

MTV's 2010 Video Music Awards is known to court controversy - from last year's Kanye West/Taylor Swift snafu to the Madonna/Brittney kiss. This year belonged to Gaga in show-stopping ensembles that garnered as much attention as her controversial videos.

Feathered mohawks, huge gowns and a dress made entirely of meat were some of the highlights (countered with an Ellen DeGeneres veggie bikini). But her jewels were a veritable no-show (why upstage a steak skirt with a little bling?).

Enter the jewelry trends we did spot on the VMA white carpet - from hot, hot, hoops to gems in black and blue.
