Let the wedding festivities beginEva Longoria sure has been living the fabulous life lately! From the constant parade of new bikinis to gearing up for her no-expense-spared wedding to basketball player Tony Parker, Eva sure has nothing to complain about. Spotted here on the shores of Saint Tropez on June 30 in an eye-catching blue bikini (Brette Sandler's Margie Retro Bikini is super similar) and a woven cowboy hat, this soon to be housewife looked anything but desperate! Eva and her beau Tony are in Saint Tropez for his-and-her bachelor parties (how cute) and will spend the rest of the weekend gearing up for their upcoming nuptials. People Magazine is reporting that the two arrived in Paris on Monday morning, and will then have their low-key (yeah, right) wedding, which will be followed by their extravagant reception at the Chateau de Vaux le Vicomte, which is two hours south of Paris. Mario Lopez (yes, Slater from “Saved by the Bell”) has given the couple their first wedding present, which is said to be an 18-carat white-gold bracelet for Eva and a 1.27-carat tie pin for Tony. Talk about the generosity of friends! Best wishes to the happy couple. |
Style Tip: Rock and Roll RingJust as fashionistas have been stackin their wrists with bracelets and bangles, the posh crowd is starting to stack up their fingers with equal amounts of accoutrement. The oversized ring was a must-do last year with the arrival of Balenciaga, Marc Jacobs, Prada and Lanvin's ginormous costume gems. This year we see the fad gaining strength in numbers. Part glam rock, part Barbie al'a Bob Mackie, if you are going to outdo yourself, please do it properly by loading up those crazy neon manicured fingers with excessive amounts of flair. Let's examine the evidence: Exhibit A: Giorgio Armani's Couture Collection debuted July 4th in Paris. Along with a sophisticated-Jem!-does-outer-space air, these hard as diamonds gamines were stacked with BIG rings. Exhibit B: Scenesters get chic with piles of jewels exquisitely considered and executed. The Verdict: Just do it. |
