Q & A With Kimberlin

Filed under: Interviews

kimUnlike many other jewelers, Kimberlin isn't the type to toot her own horn. In fact, everything about her – from her designs right down to her looks – signifies a very humble, happy-go-lucky girl who loves nature. And we're not talking about any love of nature – we're talking big time traveler who uses the rolling hills of Tuscany and the bubbling springs of Iceland as inspiration for her drop dead gorgeous jewelry collections.

IndiaPlaza.com, Our New Favorite Jewelry Spot - Tip of the Day!

Filed under: Accessories, Style Tip of the Day

Angelina Jolie at a *Different* "The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button" Premiere - StyleFab!

Filed under: Clothing, Celebrities with Style, Celebrity Fashion Mistakes

Dammit, we hate when this happens.

As a rule, we find Angelina Jolie irritating. And just last Tuesday we called her out for a Golden-Girls-esque StyleFoul at the Berlin premiere of "The Curious Case of blah blah blah the title is as long as the freaking movie".

Then last night they turned up at the film's premiere in Paris and we are forced to admit that she and the Pitt-ster somehow pulled off seriously elegant, striking, matching pale grey outfits. Yes! Matching!

We don't know how this happened, or even why we like her silvery ensemble so much. Or why it's okay that the two of them totally match, like some lovely dovey high school couple, or aging tourists from Kansas. But we do, and it is.

Her coat looks so soft that it could be made of 200% cashmere, and yet it is not slouchy at all. The color makes her hair look dark and glossy, and her coordinating wide-legged pants are tailored to exactly the right length to keep them from eating her feet, as they did in Germany.

Brad also looks fantastic, clean even, in his three-piece suit and silver tie. And we are just overwhelmed by the grey scarf he's carrying. It's dapper. He totally reminds us of Bob Redford here. Yes, really.

That said, she can wipe the superior look right off her face. Yeah, this round goes to her, but we're not like her fans now or anything. We just like her outfit. For once. Okay?

Nicole Kidman doesn't have to try too hard to look stunning on the red carpet. She's tall, thin, and poised, and that takes care of quite a bit of it. However, when she takes a bit of a chance, as she did here for the Paris premiere of her newest film, "Australia," she makes a major impact.

Why aren't you wearing this? Pure Pashmina Wrap

Filed under: Accessories, Must Haves

Even though it's cold out, there are certain times when a sweater just won't do. When we're hitting the club with our girlfriends or attending a cocktail party with our boy du jour, we want to look a little sexy, and sometimes that requires showing a little skin. But we don't want to be cold, of course, so we like to bring along a little wrap, like this Pure Pashmina Wrap, $59.99 at The Pashmina Store.

Talismans for a modern age from Kerin Rose Jewelry

Filed under: Accessories, Interviews, Green Fashion, Must Haves

Sometimes the art of personal adornment is about more than just looking pretty or dressing up a boring outfit. Sometimes the artist behind a piece of jewelry pushes things further and gets you to really think about bigger issues every time you look in the mirror or touch that bracelet on your wrist. That's certainly the intention of the designer behind kerin rose jewelry, who strives to create talismans for a modern age.
