KARL = INSPIRATION!

Karl Lagerfeld was an icon! A creative genius, intensely curious, highly influential, powerful and passionate about style! One of the most celebrated designers of the 21st century and an iconic symbol of style.

This is the man whose love for collars led him to create what could be the most expensive collar in fashion history. The collar features 40 carats of black diamonds and a 22.33-carat emerald centerpiece, all priced at more than $45,000 – with proceeds from the sale reportedly going towards a children’s cancer charity.

The collar was specifically created to celebrate the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee year. A true collector’s item!

Fairy Tale Princess Look!

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge made a glamorous appearance at the London BAFTA awards and looked stunning!

The Duchess wore a white grecian-style dress and debuted a pair of Princess Diana’s favorite pearl earrings, last seen over 20 years ago!

The elegant earrings are from Diana’s personal collection and feature a circular design of diamonds and a single diamond-encrusted pearl and were worn by Diana several times in the 1990’s. The last time she wore them was at the Royal Albert Hall in 1997.

Ladies and Rocks!

The American poet and painter, René Ricard, was right in saying that sometimes it is ok to throw rocks at girls….the best kind of rocks…diamonds!!

Ricard was a very talented and eccentric artist who got known from Andy Warhol’s movies. He wrote poems in the form of paintings and people like Kate Moss are huge fans of his work.

We are also fans of this work and totally agree with Ricard!!!

Sparkling Lip Art!

A talented make-up artist created the most luxurious lips! She placed a total of 126 diamonds of different sizes on a woman’s lips weighing almost 23 carats and worth almost 500,000 euros.

Incredible art, sparkling diamonds and captivating lips.Impressive and stunning!

Inspired by Diamonds!

Every artist from Rihanna to Prince and Marilyn Monroe have been inspired by diamonds singing about this exquisite and precious stone as a symbol of love, success, strength and luxury.

Iconic songs – each one with a very different story behind it!
Marilyn Monroe’s song dazzled in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes in 1952 and has been replayed in hit movies Moulin Rouge and Burlesque. You were right Marilyn…diamonds are a girl’s best friend!!

The legendary James Bond theme song from 1971 state the obvious by saying that ‘diamonds are forever’….while Kylie Minogue felt as strong and brilliant as a White Diamond in the namesake song.

As Rihanna said…keep shining bright like a diamond ladies…!!!
