As times became volatile, jewelry became an investment. In 1987, Calvin Klein bought for his wife, Kelly, a pearl and diamond pendant and necklace made by Cartier. This original was custom made when Queen Mary ordered it. It was first given to her son, who then presented it to his wife, the Duchess of Windsor.
Some Hollywood and sports celebrities have ordered three-wheelers called the “Roddlers.” That is a unique baby buggy (pram) that is modeled after the 1950s car. There is even a special feature that allows for “surround sound.” They can also be customized with functional brake lights. The price tag for one such modern pram is an astonishing $4000.
Parents can choose to upholster the seat with suede or get a leather bucket seat. There are options to upgrade with customized paint jobs, and fit glitzy accessories like fenders and chrome trim kits. The company called Kid Kustoms makes these Roddlers.
The workshop churns out only 5 such buggies per day due to the high quality and customization requested by its customers.

Paris Hilton was the latest celebrity to invest in blue rimmed sunglasses. She showed off her new specs while she was out shopping at Robertson Blvd. These retro frames came from the 1980s. The high end fashion brands like Primark to Miu Miu have resurrected this trademark and aimed to make it a current trend.
This Yves Saint Laurent Tribute Tote costs around $880. Some of its customers were Heidi Klum, Ashlee Simpson, Halle Berry and Drew Barrymore.
This is an elegant handbag. The stitching creates the texture. The handle is long enough to be used as a shoulder sling bag. It can also be carried on the arm.
The glossy finish means it can be used for dual functions. As a day bag, it affords plenty of room to tote around necessary supplies like makeup, a bottle of water or even a set of clothes.
The dark color enables the bag to be versatile and coordinate with a wide range of colors in any wardrobe.

The most exciting Umbrella.
The most exciting umbrella I have ever seen is not Rihanna’s umbrealla. Ladies and gentlemen, meet Nubrella, the world’s first hands-free umbrella. This is also the first umbrella that promises not to turn inside out in strong winds.
Kirsten Dunst modeled Miu Miu spectacles by creating a sexy look. Siren red lipstick and blood red nail polish pointed the way to suggest smoldering eyes behind those nerdy glasses. The trick was creating a beautiful face to complement the eye wear. Besides using the aid of makeup, the hair also helped to create the polished look of a sexy woman. When the hair was combed back, it removed the distraction and the attention was focused on the face.
Judy Finnegan had a soft fringe that interfered with her face. The fringe did not soften the look of the eye glasses but accentuated the harshness of the black spectacles. If she had the pancake makeup of Kirsten and copied her look, she would achieve a similar effect.
There are more photos of Kirsten in her shades after the jump.
