Ladies, wanna be as glamorous as Jackie Kennedy, then wear Jackie’s signature Cartier Tank. Gents, you want to be as fierce as James Bond, won’t you like Rolex 6538 or 5508 on your wrist?

Celebrities are the ones that sell this particular product better than anyone else in the world. It is about prestige. Brad Pitt and Uma Thurman are excellent example of Tag Heuer’s faces.

Nicole Kidman is Omega’s signature face

Glamorous starlets are keeping time with the trend. More and more stylish Hollywood girls appear nowadays wearing men’s watches that turned into more feminine accessory. They might look not as elegant as this Cartier…

But there is something so bold into it, they just look very cool. Kim Kardashian knows what she’s doing. She’s wearing Timex.

Paris Hilton has even had her own watch collection made back in 2005.

Here is my chic choice of wristwatches.

Rolex Oyster Perpetual Lady-Datejust

But above all, of course, I call the new Rolex Oyster Perpetual Lady-Datejust in 18ct Pink Gold with Diamond-set Mother-of-Pearl Dial.

The unique hue of Rolex Everose gold works in perfect harmony with the solid steel to lend a specific personality to the Rolesor watch. In the 18ct Everose gold alloy developed by Rolex, a touch of platinum is added to lock in the copper, and thus the colour. Its enduring beauty is a true delight.

The Oyster Perpetual Lady-Datejust combines the prestigious elegance of a ladies’ watch with the most exclusive materials. It is available in steel, Rolesor, 18ct gold or platinum.

This is the next Bond girl’s watch, don’t you think?

Fancy and expensice is chic if there’s taste… No matter how sophisticated Rolex brand is, sometimes even their designers make mistakes by overdosing the diamonds. Below is what I call bad taste. Not elegant.

Can there be anything better than being hot and being elegant? These cover girls and the boy know, what I’m talking about. These are most elegant celeb cover stars of this month. And don’t even try to tell me you don’t find them glam and gorgeous.

Fantastic Kill Bill star Uma Thurman is gracing this month’s Vogue issue. If all women looked that fabulous approaching 40… A great and really elegant outfit consisting of a silk blouse, jeweled belt, organza and silk net skirt, accompanied by the matching necklace makes her look gorgeous at this cover.

Gwyneth Paltrow looks positively flawless in Versace on the July 2008 cover of Harper’s Bazaar. “You know, I don’t want to look like a mother who doesn’t care. For myself, for my work and for my relationship, I want to look good,” the star said. And she does look good in that great bright pink dress.

The Devil Wears Prada star Anne Hathaway is looking smart gracing InSyle’s July cover. As the magazine revealed, Agent 99’s alter ego is a master decoder of personal style. So sexy and smiley, Anne Hathaway seems like the greatest attraction for buyers. Just confess you couldn’t help but get yourself the mag because she was smiling so irresistibly!

British singing star Leona Lewis is featured on the July 2008 cover of Blender magazine. “I don’t wear little miniskirts and low-cut tops. If you want to show your bits off, it’s up to you.” Leona tells the music mag. This pop’s next megastar is wearing all black but anyway manages to look positive and hot. Sassy and hussy, Lewis looks great here. Mariah Carey look out!

“Mary-Kate is fragile yet strong,” said Diane von Furstenberg about this month’s Elle cover girl Mary-Kate Olsen. It’s not really often that we see the Olsen twins apart. Mary-Kate is famous for her incredible sense of style (which I personally do not always understand, but anyway). This cover explains why her fashion line is so popular worldwide. She’s really elegant and glam here.

When talking about elegance and style there’s no way I can miss Angelina Jolie, the sexiest assassin on screen and a doting and caring mom in real life. Jolie’s gracing two elegant covers this month.
Famous old Hollywood glamour is felt in the air when you’re looking at her Vanity Fair cover, while Entertainment Weekly cover looks more like down-to-earth but naturally beautiful. That’s Angie, a woman in full.

What I like about Arena magazine this month is Shia Labeouf’s cover. He’s so cute! Bet you all’d love to have a romantic date with the Indy star by the pool? A man in an elegant black suit is always attractive.

Amy Winehouse was back on stage in London Friday when she performed two of her hits ‘Rehab’ and ‘Valerie’ at a special concert as part of Nelson Mandela’s 90th birthday tribute.

Everyone welcomed her with loud cheers and was impressed by her strong vocals and her really healthy looks, according to the reports.

Amy was wearing her famous huge beehive with a bright heart-shaped pin inscribed with “Blake”, her husband’s name. Generally Amy looked much better than expected, especially taking into account her recent hospitalization and health issues.

Besides singing two of her songs, Winehouse took lead vocals in a version of ‘Free Nelson Mandela,’ alongside Jerry Dammers, the writer of the anthem, and most of the concert’s performers and then joined everyone to sing ‘Happy birthday’ to Nelson Mandela.

Here’s Amy singing her famous ‘Rehab’. Honestly, I expected something grander from her. but the dancers rock.

Organizers of Friday’s gig feared Winehouse would miss the concert after she failed to attend a scheduled photocall on Thursday, the source reported.

Generally the concert was aimed at raising money for Mandela’s 46664 AIDS charity – named after his prison number. The concert followed the fundraising dinner on Wednesday night, which was attended by Bill Clinton, Gordon Brown, Oprah Winfrey, Robert De Niro, Will Smith, Uma Thurman and others.

According to the reports, the event has raised about $10m. The concert was led by Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith and was attended by Geri Halliwell, Leona Lewis, Annie Lennox, trio Sugababes, Lewis Hamilton and Nicole Scherzinger, Prince William’s girlfriend Kate Middleton, and others.

Once again, happy birthday Nelson! You’re a great man!

Nelson Mandela along with the world’s most loved celebs have broken silence on Mugabe’s regime at Mandela’s party.

The fundraising dinned welcomed his close friends: world famous socialites as well as human rights activists. Among the guests there were big names like Oprah Winfrey, Nicole Scherzinger, Uma Thurman and many others.

But on a short address, Zimbabwe merited only a brief mention in a list of the world’s ills.

For the speech Nelson Mandela said:

The world remains beset by so much human suffering, poverty and deprivation. It is in your hands to make our world a better one for all, especially the poor, vulnerable and marginalized.

We look back at much human progress, but we sadly note so much failing as well.

In our time we spoke out on the situation in Palestine and Israel, and that conflict continues unabated. We warned against the invasion of Iraq, and observe the terrible suffering in that country.

We watch with sadness the continuing tragedy in Darfur. Nearer to home we had seen the outbreak of violence against fellow Africans in our own country and the tragic failure of leadership in our neighboring Zimbabwe.

It is within this context that we should also see the plight of those affected by HIV and Aids. It is now in the hands of your generations to help rid the world of such suffering.”

Will Smith and his wife Jada Pinkett Smith were just two boldfaced names to fete the prebirthday dinner party held in Hyde Park. Also on the list: Forest Whitaker, Kim Cattrall, Leona Lewis and Denzel Washington.

Amy Winehouse was supposed to attend as well; unfortunately she’s been hospitalized and is still advised to stay in bed. For the concert though, she will perform at her first post-hospitalized performance.

Another troubled girl Naomi Campbell attended the event. She looked oh-so-preety, and most important, she smiled.

Uma Thurman is going to countersue Lancome over the use of her face and name in their advertisements. The actress states the cosmetic giant used her image on Asian websites and Canadian billboards to boost its “prestige, stature and bargaining power” after her contract had expired in September 2004.

Thurman’s charge is the response to Lancome taking legal action on May, 7, filing legal papers denying breach of contract and asking the judge to dismiss Thurman’s original claim for $1 million, the source reports.

Celebrities will now be careful about doing deals with Lancome. They continued to use her photographs long after the contract was over,”

Thurman’s lawyer Bertram Fields said.

You know guys, it’s not fair on your behalf. I’m not bitchy now. I do mean it.

P.S. plan not to buy any of Lancome products for the next couple of months in support of Uma.
