Sparkle Like The Stars

Salma Hayek looked smashing recently at a benefit in San Francisco. This beauty really takes risks with her jewelry. She doesn’t go for the tired and true (and often boring!). If you’re looking for something really unique, you should definitely check out these elegant Jordan Schlanger 18K gold leaf double drop earrings. These earrings organic design hug your ears and seem to become an extension of your body. The dewy curves of these earrings dangle gracefully from the top. It’s a finished look that is perfect for any occasion.

Last night my mom and I took a break from our post-holiday shopping to catch a movie. We saw The Holiday. We needed a cute, feel good movie. The Holiday didn’t disappoint. Cameron Diaz stars in the movie as a frazzled and habitually single movie trailer producer - you know the teasers that you see on TV and before movies start in the theater. Anyway, in one scene Diaz is all dressed up and this cute girl says, “You look like my Barbie doll.” Awwww! B****!
You know which earrings she’s sporting with her Barbie doll look? In the scene Diaz is wearing earrings just like these 1/6 carat 3 stone diamond earrings in 14K yellow gold. You can get Cameron’s earrings on SALE now for just $69! At a price like that, these earrings will make your holiday too!

Miss USA 2006, Tara Conner, got misty during a news conference where The Donald said that he’ll allow her to keep her title despite allegations that she hung out at bars when she was underage. We all make mistakes and I am glad that Trump is giving her a second chance. More than that, I am glad that this sparked the latest round of fisticuffs between Rosie and The Donald.

Tara shouldn’t be so upset - but I am RAGING about her black fingernails! That is so goth and just ugly! If she was wearing ripped jeans and heading to a KISS concert, that would be ok. Paired with her suit, it’s just tacky! Yuck.

I love her necklace and her ring is cute too. I found a ring though that I think will look great with any business suit. This 1/8 carat diamond and black rhodium ring in 14K white gold is a great accessory for business attire. I like the lines of this ring and the funky criss cross design. For just $295, it’s a versatile piece that’s great for the office or the dance floor!

50 Cent and Sheryl Crow were all smiles at the world premiere of Home of the Brave in Beverly Hills recently. 50 Cent is hot - and so cute too! He’s sporting the masculine single diamond stud. His earring is HUGE!

You or your man can get the same look with this big, manly 1/2 carat single diamond stud in 14K white gold. It’s a size that’s pure Hollywood! Plus buying just a single earring means that you can get a bigger stone for the same money you’d spend on a normal two earring set. It really maximizes your budget.

Cate Blanchett and Lauren Bacall share a moment at The Metropolitan Club after a screening of Notes on a Scandal, Blanchett’s latest work. Bacall is a Hollywood icon and is effortlessly stylish and graceful. Blanchett looks shiny and scrubbed in her tailored suit. I wonder if I can get the number of Cate’s pilates instructor?! She’s so slim!

Cate has paired beautiful silver earrings with her suit and it works very well. Every woman needs a couple of pairs of silver hoops in her jewelry wardrobe for a variety of occasions. Silver is an inexpensive way to add sparkle to any outfit.

For only $40, you can get these striking sterling silver hoop earrings. These sleek and sophisticated feature a dramatic faceted detail. I love the omega clasp on these earrings because they are so convenient!

Angelina Jolie took time out of her busy schedule of jet setting around the world adopting everything under 6 months old to actually make a movie and talk about it on Larry King Live. She recently chatted with Larry about life, love, and her movie too - The Good Shepherd. I have a love hate thing going with Angelina. I think that she’s glamorous and beautiful (love/hate) and she is doing good things around the world (love) - but she caught Brad (hate).

Most of the time Angeline looks great now that she’s not tattooing herself under the influence of Billy Bob. Her little hoops are a great way to add sparkle to an everyday outfit. From the office, to the supermarket, or to a night out, hoops are flexible enough for just about any occasion.

For just $325, you can get these amazing 1/4 carat round and baguette diamond hoops in 14K white gold. The diamonds are channel-set to allow light to shine and sparkle through the gems. These earrings will quickly become a favorite in any jewelry collection.

This Christmas skip the stocking stuffers and get her a stocking sparkler! Every year, I see tons of crap all over town that people buy for stocking stuffers. I say save your money and buy just one thing that she’ll love and wear all year - and won’t toss in the trash when you’re not looking! Nothing is a better stocking sparkler than this incredible 3/4 carat created ruby and diamond circle of love pendant in 14K white gold. I’ve been talking all year about how the circle pendant is that latest “big thing” in jewelry fashions. Now you can get the hottest style with the added touch of a ruby heart. At just $150, it’s perfect gift for your sweetheart this Christmas!

Paris Hilton has made a name for herself - and she’s wearing it around her neck! Personalized jewelry is all the rage! Personalized name plate necklaces is a retro trend that has swept into the mainstream. I am seriously surprised that you don’t have a personalized necklace yet. If you don’t have one or if the one you have is plain and run of the mill, it’s time to see what I’ve found!

You can let your unique sparkle shine through with this stylish personalized name plate necklace. At the website there are several designs you can pick from to make each piece your own. Priced from $129 to $259, you can find a style that fits any budget. A personalized nameplate necklace is a thoughtful holiday or birthday gift idea that will make any woman feel like a princess.

The Material Girl has always been a trend setter. From her “boy toy” belt buckle to her pointy bra, this lady isn’t afraid to make a statement. Lately she’s been more kaballah-fabulous than anything but she still manages to sparkle. She’s added a personal touch to her outfit here with an initial necklace in diamonds!

You can add your own personal touch to any outfit with a diamond and 14K white gold initial necklace. This letter pendant has retro styling but is perfect for the modern woman. At just $150, this necklace is the perfect price for a holiday or birthday gift. It’s a great idea for a young woman or someone young at heart - like Madonna!

Jamie Foxx and Beyonce Knowles took some time out for photographers recently at the premiere of their latest project Dreamgirls. Dreamgirls has made the news rounds because of the success of a booted American Idol contestant. But any excuse to talk about sexy Jamie Foxx is good enough for me. He always looks put together and sharp. His black pin stripe suit is classic and is very fitting for a Hollywood premiere.

Like a lot of other hot guys, Jamie sports big diamond studs. They are a classy and very masculine way for a man to add bling to any outfit. If you or your man just has one piercing, this single 1/2 carat diamond stud in 14K white gold is a the perfect bling thing. Since you’re just buying just one stud, you can go big and get the most from your budget.

According to the website tmz.com, The Simple Life reality star has been arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence. Girl, it is time to clean up your act! California Highway Patrol officers said a screening showed that she wasn’t under the influence of alcohol. They said Richie acknowledged having taken Vicodin and smoking pot. The officers said that Richie was alone in the SUV. In 2003, Richie pleaded guilty to heroin possession. The charges were dismissed after she completed the terms of her probation.

Even though she might be a boozer and a loser, little Ms. Richie knows how to wear some bling. She’s sporting some BIG diamond studs in this photo. Of course they look bigger because Nicole has been wasting away for the past couple of years and she’s tiny. I mean, if she’s been doing pot, you’d think that she’d get the munchies and pig out every once in a while. While rocks like that might be out of your budget (and probably Nicole’s too!), you can get the same look with these incredible 1/2 carat diamond studs in 14K gold for just $395! Now, diamond studs are a must have for any jewelry wardrobe. If you don’t yet have any, these will make a perfect holiday gift to yourself - or just forward this post to your sweetie with the subject “HINT HINT!”

Ai yai yai! The Rahulio is dying from the superfabulosity of the Penelope Cruz. So, so much happening here, where is the Rahulio to start? The amazing Queen Mamacita Cruz, she is the sparkling and gorgeous one! Her blingity-bling is magnifico, more on this below.

First, the Rahulio he would like to make the special acknowledgement to Poland for not only giving the Best Actress 2006 award to the Penelope Cruz for her achievements in the movie with the same name as the womens special lady bits, but for having the superwonderfulness to give out 10-inch silver replicas of the mens special bits as their awards. Finally a statue that is both with the decorativeness and the practical! The Penelope Cruz looks thrilled to be receiving the newest and most shiny addition to her special collection of……awards.

But that is the other story for the other day. Let us discuss the amazing glamorous jewelry Her Cruzness is wearing to go with her phallulous, teehee sorry FABulous, award. We like it so much we are forgiving her for wearing the silver with the gold, just this once.

The bracelet it is the epitome of the simple elegance. But here at Rahulio Central, we say, why stay with the simpleness? Try same idea, but with more of the special Latin kick!

As for the earrings, we all know the Rahulio he loves the dangles in the many sexy colors.

A sober-looking Lindsay Lohan showed up to a Los Angeles Lakers basketball game recently. This just goes to show you that a couple nights of good sleep and no booze does wonders for the way you look. She seems comfortable and relaxed.

Lindsay, even for all of her Kabbalah leanings, does the Hollywood thing and dons a sparkly cross. Crosses are great for everyday wear. Even if you’re not religious, they’ve become a cool fashion accessory.

A great and inexpensive way to get in on the cross trend is with this hip stainless steel cross pendant on a ball chain. This sleek and modern piece is just $50. You can combine the stainless steel cross with other white gold and platinum jewelry. It doesn’t matter if you’re at church or a shrine to rock ‘n roll, this pendant will go with outfits for both settings.

Renee Zellweger showed up to the premiere of the film Miss Potter in a plain black dress and no jewelry - not even earrings! The skinny straps of her dress might be overwhelmed by a big necklace. But if you select the right pieces, you can look sophisticated and chic. Renee missed a chance to shine in something special.
A perfect choice for stepping out this winter is this fabulous 1/4 carat diamond and 1/6 carat sapphire pendant in 14K white gold. The delicate and feminine chain won’t overpower your outfit and provides a graceful frame for the dazzling pendant. From the first chilly nights of fall to the last spring snows, this pendant is great for wintertime. It makes a timely gift this holiday season too for just $275.

Cameron Diaz showed up in Madrid, Spain for a showing of her latest flick The Holiday. I know that this is going to sound old fashioned but I still have issues with white after Labor Day. I know that that rule mainly applies to accessories like shoes but Cameron’s dress - even though it’s great and does a fabulous job showing off her legs - would be better for warmer months. Ok! Ok! So maybe it’s warmer in Spain - but still. Just because you go abroad doesn’t mean that you forget what your mama taught you!

Look carefully and you’ll see that Cameron is wearing some chic black diamond hoop earrings. I wasn’t able to find hoops in black diamonds, but these 1 carat black and white diamond earrings in a festive design are just as cool! These earrings are the perfect thing to and spice and freshen up your little black dress. They’re perfect for festive black tie occasions and any time you need a little glamor. At $595, they’re not priced for everyone - but if you’re ready for something really special and unique, these earrings are for you!

According to her publicist, Lindsay Lohan is going to try to sober up a little bit with the help of AA. I know know if they’re confused about the name or what - but the first A is for alcohol and the second A is for anonymous. Hush, girl, you aint got to tell everything you know.

I for one and really glad that she’s looking for help. AA has helped a lot of people in my life and I hope Lindsay gets on a good path too.

Even if she is sippin the sauce, she sure looks great in this picture! I like the smoky eyes and clean shiny skin. Youth is wonderful! You can get a look like Lindsay’s earrings with these 14K white gold triple diamond heart earrings. Dangles, sparkles, and hearts make a triple threat in these fun and flirty earrings. They have a great price too of just $85. They’d make a great Christmas present too!

Eva Longoria is not going to be desperate anymore! The star of the hit TV series Desperate Housewives has announced that she’s getting married to long time boyfriend and NBA star Tony Parker. Eva, who was named No. 1 on Maxim magazine’s Hot 100 of 2005 list, said that their wedding will be “huge and beautiful”! Yeah!

 I haven’t seen it yet myself, but I am sure Eva’s ring is fab-u-lous! This girl does not back away from the bling! Now for those of you looking for get hitched (and the holidays are a perfect time - so romantic! - plus the fam is all around already) this 1 1/6 carat diamond engagement ring makes me sweat! A gorgeous round 1 carat solitaire diamond is the focal point of this knock out of a ring. The center stone is beautifully accented by 1/6 carat baguette diamonds in a lovely filigreed setting of cool platinum. Yum!

Beyonce is looking as beautiful as ever during her performance at the American Music Awards. That girl has got some serious bounce! Check out those kicks too - they’re like drag queen shoes! It’s great how she puts on a real show.

She’s all glittery here in a dress that’s striped with gold and silver sparkles. It’s got a kind of retro 80s influence with the stripes and halter top. A dress like that is begging for one thing - two tone gold jewelry!

In these 14K white and yellow gold hoop earrings the two tones of gold combine in a way that’s fun, fun, FUN! Striped like Beyonce’s dress, these earrings paired with the right outfit can have a very 80s look - which is hot again! Just throw on some Vans, leg warmers, and whatever is new at American Apparel and you’re ready for a great night out.

Halle Berry stepped out with Gabriel Aubry to Hennessey Cognac’s private tasting party held at Cafe Fuego in NYC. Don’t the both look fabulous?! Gabriel looks so sexy with his relaxed suit and scruffy face. Halle on the other hand has on a dramatic, plunging dress that really shows off her stuff. I am not sure I am loving the shirt/coat thing she has on top of her dress though. It looks like and after-thought or that she forgot to pack something stylish and warm on her trip to NY.

Halle is sporting a lovely diamond pendant that you can see peaking out from behind that yucky shirt-jacket thing. Diamond pendants are a great way to add sparkle to any outfit. They really are a wardrobe staple.

 For just $150, you can add a little diamond sparkle just like Halle. This lovely 1/10 carat diamond heart pendant in 14K white gold is a perfect starter piece. The artistic, heart is accented with four beautiful diamonds. This pendant would make a perfect Christmas gift or birthday present!

Apparently Brooke Shields and Tom Cruise have buried the hatchet as far as their public argument regarding depression. Brooke showed up in Italy to attend the wedding for Tom and Katie Holmes. She was just one of the many stars that made an appearance in the small lakeside town of Bracciano, Italy.

Brooke is sporting a sparkly multi-stone diamond ring that has a light and lacy feeling - perfect for a wedding! It’s a great way to make a bold statement without having to wear a truck load of expensive stones.
