Sneak Peek! Iman's Global Chic Jewelry Line

Model Iman's collaboration with HSN is still going strong but her latest pieces for her Global Chic line have made me take notice.

Model Iman's collaboration with HSN is still going strong but her latest pieces for her Global Chic line have made me take notice. I've never been one to spend a fortune on jewelry, and even if I could afford it, I would still seek out fabulous costume jewelry. If you're like me, be sure to check out Iman's jewels.

The latest selection mostly consists of bracelets, like this Golden Goddess Dangle Cuff ($65), and rings, with a few earrings and necklaces in the mix. Each piece is bold, fairly priced ($35 to $75), and sure to get tons of compliments.

Vogue Italia Finally Makes an Entrance (!)

>> This morning, the July 2008 Vogue Italia hit stands, and we've got the scans to prove it.  The magazine features an 11-page spread, "Elegance as a Form," with Yasmin Warsame and devotes 9 pages to America's Next Top Model alum Toccara Jones in addition to the two editorials we've already seen: Naomi Campbell's 9-page luxe spread and the 25-page ode to new girl Sessilee Lopez.

But I saved the best for last: "Modern Luxe" by Steven Meisel, spanning 15 pages, and featuring everyone from Noemie Lenoir to Kiara Kabukuru to Jourdan Dunn.

Liya, Sessilee, Jourdan, and Naomi Make Four for Vogue Italia

>> What a way to ring in a new day .
Liya Kebede, Sessilee Lopez, Jourdan Dunn, and Naomi Campbell

>> What a way to ring in a new day . . . and hopefully a new age. The first photos from the much-hyped July 2008 "black issue" of Vogue Italia have dropped. The cover looks to be a four photo foldout, with vets Liya Kebede and Naomi Campbell joining up-and-comers Jourdan Dunn and Sessilee Lopez for top honors.

From the cover teaser words, expect more of the same mix of the experienced (Alek Wek, Alva Chin, Gail O'Neil, Iman, Kiara Kabukuru, Karen Alexander, Tyra Banks, Veronica Webb, Yasmin Warsame, Pat Cleveland) and the new blood (Arlenis Sosa Pena, Chanel Iman, America's Next Top Model contestant Toccara Jones) inside.

Enjoy your first peek in the gallery below.

When they're not strutting their stuff on the runway, models are sure to be spotted at the swankiest events in town. At the Met's Costume Institute Gala, these long legged felines were dressed to the nines in their favorite designer duds. Iman looks stunning posing with her hubbie David Bowie in a smokin' Dolce & Gabbana gown and Fred Leighton jewels. Check out some of our favorite model looks from last night and let us know your faves.

Love It or Hate It? Iman's Costume Institute Gala Look

We already know that Iman doesn't look her age, but I'd love to know more about her makeup.

We already know that Iman doesn't look her age, but I'd love to know more about her makeup. Since she has her own cosmetics line, I'm assuming that's what was used to give her such a deep, dramatic eye shadow look. I'm not sure what to think about the flipped-up bangs — your thoughts? — but come on, it's Iman. Mrs. David Bowie! I want to be her when I grow up.

Bella Quiz: Guess the Celebrity Beauty Buy

It's a mistake to think that celebrities always have the absolute best beauty secrets.

It's a mistake to think that celebrities always have the absolute best beauty secrets. (If that were the case, they'd theoretically look flawless all of the time, which is humanly impossible.) But because they get to try so many products and work with the best experts, I always like finding out what they're using. This Telegraph story uncovers a ton of celeb-approved beauty products. Read the article if you're in a rush, or for a bit more fun, see if you can guess who uses what.

A Night of a Thousand Lights and Some Beautiful Ladies

Diane Kruger left her hot man Joshua Jackson at home and slipped into something glamorous for last night's "A Night of a Thousand Lights" party to benefit St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital in NYC.

Diane Kruger left her hot man Joshua Jackson at home and slipped into something glamorous for last night's "A Night of a Thousand Lights" party to benefit St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital in NYC. She wasn't all by her lonesome, however, as she met up to make model-y faces for the camera by the side of Michelle Monaghan among others. Diane is quite the red carpet pro these days, but she always seems to keep it interesting and help light up the night.

Behind the Seams: A Night of a Thousand Lights

Marchesa, Marchesa, Marchesa. It was all about Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig's creations last night at A Night of a Thousand Lights.

Marchesa, Marchesa, Marchesa. It was all about Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig's creations last night at A Night of a Thousand Lights. The party, which benefited St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital in NYC, was attended by none other than fashionable, Marchesa-clad ladies. Diane Kruger, Iman, Michelle Monaghan (whose swirly accordian-pleated dress I want), Joy Bryant, and Mary Alice Stephenson all schmoozed, wined, and dined to the background of a Marchesa fashion show. Tired of hearing me say Marchesa? See the night's events for yourself.
