It's been a while since we heard anything about Nicky Hilton's clothing line, Chick by Nicky Hilton, but now the socialite is coming out with costume jewellery for Fall. "I’m a crazy jewellery collector. I've always known since I was a teenager that I wanted to do a line. Whenever I bought something, whether at a flea market in Paris or a bazaar in India, I've been collecting pieces," she said. Nicky has paired up with Titan Brands to bring baubles — wholesaling from US$35 to US$480 — with themes like Art Deco (inspired by her mother and grandmother's David Webb pieces) and Spike and Snakes. The collection will first hit Endless.com exclusively, then Nicky will take her goods to department and specialty stores. Are you impressed with these preview pieces?
Rachel Bilson recently used her fashion designing skills to help out the nonprofit Diamond Empowerment Fund (DEF). Touched by a visit to Botswana and South Africa to learn more about the diamond mining industry, the actress designed this sweet leather bracelet (US$100) to help purchase student housing for the CIDA City Campus in Johannesburg (Africa's first free university).
This bracelet is a far cry from the usual charity tee. It's simple and chic — the leather cords are ideal for everyday wear, and the diminutive diamond adds a smart, conscious touch. Unfortunately, the bracelet isn't available in Australia, but for anyone heading overseas be sure to check out Macy's.
Brille en el aire, the latest collection meaning 'glitter in the air' by Samantha Wills, is a range inspired by creating accessories with spirit and soul. Featuring intricate gold detailing, heveanly turquoise stones and opaque black jewels, the range stays true to the popular ethnic aesthetic we've come to know and love from the brand. Eva Mendes, Ashlee Simpson-Wentz and P!nk have all be spotted wearing the Aussie label, so make like a celebrity and get jingling!
