Deal of the week (Thursday): Catherine Zeta-Jones

Catherine looks like a shimmering lady of delight in this shape hugging number from Herve Leger. The star was in NYC for the premier of her latest movie, No Reservations. I love how Zeta-Jones changes up the pace with the unexpected color of her Louboutins heels. Her cuff is priced a little on the high side but I'm totally in love with flattened dots detail.

Wild Card Wednesday: Eva Pigford

**Click Picture to Enlarge**

Eva looks fantastic as she graces the red carpet at the BET Awards in LA. Her Laundry by Design dress reminds me of the Fiesta week celebration held ever year in San Antonio. I love how she allowed her dress to take center stage and went light on the accessories. The bangles she chose are stackable and will complement any look. Her studs are stellar and add a touch of understated elegance.

THIS OR THAT Tuesday: Gabrielle Union

I still remember Ms. Union as the sassy cheerleader in Bring It On. I'll never forget how she wanted to give our pal Kirsten the 'ol 1-2 punch for trying to steal her squad's cheerleading moves. Gabrielle looks classically chic during her recent appearance on The Rachael Ray Show. She took my favorite summer accessory, the shirtdress, and topped it off with a chunky wooden bangle and fantastic lucite ring.

Deal of the week (Thursday): Katherine Heigl

You all may know Katherine from her stint on Grey's Anatomy but I remember Ms. Heigl from her starring roll on the WB's Roswell. She looks fantastic on the red carpet in her Anna Sui gown and sparkling jewels. Lucite is a HUGE trend for the summer and her earrings would look great with almost any outfit. Her ring is one of my favorites and would transition easily into fall.

Wild Card Wednesday: Fergie

I had to take a break from jewelry blogging, to address this outfit real quick. Fergie, my love, what the hell where you thinkin'? I mean seriously! As a fashion stylist, I consider it my civic duty to save you from yourself. You are hear by ordered to step away from your closet. We all see that you are totally incapable of making fashionable decisions. What you should have done was ditch the super short shorts, those Spice Girl boots, and that dreadful hat. If you would have paired the vest with a crisp white blouse, dark slacks/denim, and some slammin' flats then you could have saved yourself a lifetime of embarrassment. I'll allow you to keep those sunglasses but that purse has go to GO! You know what....NO...the sunglasses have to go too! Baby girl please call ME so that we can do a makeover. To redeem yourself, here's what I recommend...

vest, blouse, pants, shoes, bangles, necklace

Now back to the regular jewelry blogging already in progress...

THIS OR THAT Tuesday: Cameron Diaz

Today I had to switch it up and give you a little bit of THIS and little bit of THAT. I typically don't feature entire looks but today a bit of inspiration hit. Cameron sports a fun, floral mini shirtdress and bejeweled thongs as she leaves Georges Salon in Beverly Hills. Since I’m a jewelry diva, I love how she pulled her look together with gold bangles and hoop earrings.

Monday Madness: Sienna Miller

Hi-Ho-Silver! Check out Sienna Miller in her sky-high Louboutins at the Pepe Jeans fashion show in Barcelona. Although I'm not a fan of her heels, I'm totally diggin' those shimmery bangles. Did you guys know that Sienna has fashion label called Twenty8Twelve which is backed by Pepe Jeans (which explains her recent appearance)?

Happy Anniversary to ME!

A year ago today, I started blogging simply as a way to share my love of jewelry with the world. Today, my blog has grown by leaps and bounds due to my hard work and dedicated readers. My goals for this next year are to get my blog ranked 7 on google (any suggestions?), add some contributing writers (contact me if you're interested), exchange links with more established blogs (YBF, etc), become a blogger for hire (why not get paid for what you love doing?), and get some press (i.e. I'd love a write up in a mainstream fashion publication) for my blog. Join ME as I celebrate this great milestone and welcome the many blessings to come.

P.S.
Thank you so much for believing in my talent and making Margarite Elaine a daily stop on your destination of life. Without you, I'd simply be talking to myself :) so thanks for lending a kind ear.

Frantic Friday: Rihanna

Rihanna looks sleek and slender in her Herve Leger gown at the BET Awards in LA. The songbird accessorized her look with a fun necklace and bold ring. I am totally in love with her curly locks and fab earrings. If anyone knows who designed her earrings, please drop ME a line.

Deal of the week (Thursday): Kate Hudson

Yellow has been a HUGE statement color this summer and Kate Hudson wears the trend beautifully. Goldie's daughter shimmers like a ray of sunshine in this one shoulder gown from Dior by Galliano. Kate's flowy gown looks almost angelic when she pairs it with this pearl ring and diamond bracelet.
