Power Couple: Kelly Ripa & Mark Consuelos

Ever since I saw E's True Hollywood Story: Kelly Ripa I've been noticing her and her hottie hubbie, Mark Consuelos.

Ever since I saw E's True Hollywood Story: Kelly Ripa I've been noticing her and her hottie hubbie, Mark Consuelos. I never watched the show where they met, starred and fell in love, All My Children, so as an outsider I can testify that this is one hot power couple. Kelly is not big in the fashion scene, nor is Mark, but they have proven that after 11 years of marriage they know how to keep the flame alive and look good doing it - even with three kids.

From Jersey to Spain, these two opposites found love, on the set no less. They have proven to be a healthy, happy couple. What's their secret? Mark says, "Sometimes the key is to have a bit of distance." Amen to that! He also credits the blonde powerhouse to keeping the fire alive, "My wife is extremely spicy." Nice! If you don't believe this is a beautiful power couple, just take a look at them through the ages...

Glitterati: Morgan Jean Jewelry

University of Georgetown graduate, Morgan Soule, was on her way to a power life on Wall Street when she found her true passion: designing and creating jewelry.

University of Georgetown graduate, Morgan Soule, was on her way to a power life on Wall Street when she found her true passion: designing and creating jewelry. Soon, what was once a weekend hobby quickly turned into a profession: Morgan Jean Jewelry.

Morgan is a Southern California native, so her elegant and modern jewels are a combination of her west coat roots, east coast sensibility and cross-cultural influences. She is also a surfer, triathlete, and a world traveler. Her experiences, like riding through the ancient city of Petra on horseback and snorkeling the Molokini Crater, naturally also inspire her collections.

Prices range from $50 to $560 and can be purchased online or in store. Check out Morgan's favorites!

Trend Alert: Caftans

All this talk about Summer coming to an end be gone!

All this talk about Summer coming to an end be gone! There's still time to hit the beach, lounge poolside and wear all your favorite sundresses. If you need a boost to reinforce the laid back lifestyle that is Summer, a caftan is the definition of sunshine glamour. Some of you may be turned off by this classic cover up, thinking it's unflattering, but with the proper accessories - sassy espadrilles, oversized shades, fabulous beach bag - there's still time to sprinkle a little glam all over the world. Who was a fan of the caftan? Fabcon Jackie O was, 'nuff said.
