Excuse us, while we add Halle Berrys necklace to our Christmas lists. The ageless Oscar winner popped up on Instagram, showing off a gold necklace with a double lioness pendant - and we wanted all the details.

It turned out to be a sweet tribute to her good friend Kerry Washington, who helped design the Aurate New York accessory as part of her Lioness Collection collab with the brand.

“Rocking my sweet friend @kerrywashington’s new jewelry collab with @auratenewyork,” Halle captioned the photo, which showed her pairing the necklace with a leopard print face mask and a black top. The Kidnap star went on to share a snap of the matching Lioness Pendant earrings she was also rocking, which were hidden by her soft, wavy locks in the snap.
