Emma Stone in Van Cleef & Arpels at the Spider-Man Premiere

Tuesday, January 22nd, 2013

Emma Stone appeared at a Madrid Premier of “The Amazing Spider-Man” on June 22. She was in a
cream colored outfit from the Fall 2012 Dolce & Gabbana collection. The lace dress featured puffy
sleeves as well as some colorful embroidery. She finished the outfit with nude pumps from Christian
Louboutin as well as jewelry from Van Cleef & Arpels. Of the jewelry she wore, there was a ring on her
finger that featured two butterflies, which looked absolutely stunning.

The 28 year old actress signed autographs and posed for pictures at the Madrid Premier. She was with
her costar, Andrew Garfield, who played Spider-Man. The two are a couple in real life and are usually
very tight-lipped about their off-screen romance. At the premier, however, Garfield found it difficult
to keep his hands away from Stone and the two enjoyed each other’s company. The couple told Teen
Vogue that they actually met and fell for each other during the audition of the film, not in the filming
like many suspect. Emma Stone has been doing very well in Hollywood over the past several years. Best
known for her role in Easy A, she has also played opposite Ryan Gosling in Crazy Stupid Love, which
came out last year.

The stunning butterfly ring doesn’t form a complete circle. The slightly “u” shaped ring features a white
gold and yellow gold butterfly – one on each side of the “u”. Diamonds and yellow sapphires decorate
the butterflies for additional detail. The ring is designed by Van Cleef & Arpels who has been designing
jewelry since 1896, when the company was founded in Paris. The first boutique opened in 1906 and
the company has been designing luxury jewelry ever since. Van Cleef & Arpels launched a number
of new lines over the past several years. Prior to 2009, the company was in the business of making
jewelry, bridal jewelry and watches. In 2009, they launched luxury perfumes under the name Collection
Extraordinaire, featuring six unique fragrances. In 2010, the company launched a high jewelry collection
called Les Voyages Extraodinaires de Jules Verne. The company has a long list of prestigious clients
that include royal and imperial courts from around the world as well as many industrial magnates. The
jewelry designer is currently active in Europe, the United States, Asia and the Middle East. The company
has a unique gem setting known as the Mystery and they have continued to be innovative within their
jewelry designs. Their technical prowess allows them to maintain their notoriety and stay as a top choice
amongst many of the Hollywood celebrities when they must decide on a designer to wear down the red
carpet. With boutiques all over the world, it’s easy for people to enjoy the designs of Van Cleef & Arpels.
With the company’s recent additions, it is also possible to get perfume and higher-end jewelry, offering
up something more unique than ever before.

Marion Cotillard Stuns in Chopard at Cannes

Wednesday, January 9th, 2013

Marion Cotillard showed up to the premier of her new movie “Rust and Bone” at the 65 th Annual Cannes
Film Festival in France earlier this year. She looked stunning in a black dress that was belted, showing
off her slim figure. In her voluminous up do, she had 18-carat white gold necklaces with sparkling
diamonds woven through her brunette locks. The designer of these stunning gold necklaces is Chopard.

The young actress has been acclaimed for her work in a number of roles, including La Vie in Rose and
How I Got Into an Argument. She now stars in French director Jacques Audiard’s new movie, Rust and
Bone. The Academy Award winning French actress has received mixed reviews on this new role where
some have called it “enthralling” while others have said that it was “pretty terrible.” In “Rust and Bone”
Marion plays a killer whale trainer who suffers an accident at work. She pairs up with a single father to
form an alliance where they must go up against all odds. Marion was very concerned about taking on a
role where she would be forced to play a character that had to rebuild a life after losing her legs at work.
While it’s a different role for her, she was glad to take it on. She was also glad to go back to a European
movie after taking on several Hollywood films including “Inception” and “The Dark Knight Rises,” which
has just recently been released into theatres.

The slender white gold chins created by Chopard were layered with brilliant white diamonds. The
luxurious look is very common with Chopard, who has been dealing with precious stones for many
years. The Swiss based designer has been in business since 1860. In their time, they have created
pocket watches and other timepieces along with jewelry and other accessories. While the company
predominantly focused on timepieces and creating in-house movements, the company has branched
out into other jewelry which they are now known for. The company recently formed a partnership
with William Goldberg Diamond Corporation, who has been responsible for supplying precious stones
worldwide. This partnership has allowed Chopard to enjoy the Ashoka diamond cut, which the Diamond
Corporation has been responsible for recreating. The new Chopard watch collection features these rare
diamonds on the timepieces. Chopard has been working with the Cannes Film Festival for over 60 years,
including being responsible for the design of some of the awards. On the 60th anniversary of working
together, they developed a Red Carpet Collection in cooperation with Valentino. 60 high jewelry designs
were created, which were inspired by the celebrities who walked the red carpet at Cannes. The jewelry
of Chopard can be seen all over the globe. There are boutiques on all continents and dignitaries and
celebrities can be found wearing the designs at virtually any major function in the world. The company is
known for their luxurious designs and continues to inspire with their beautiful, handcrafted pieces.

Rihanna <3′s Lynn Ban

Monday, November 12th, 2012

Rihanna is one of our favorite modern style icons, always on the cusp of avant garde, fresh looks. She recently appeared at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show to promote her new album, Unapologetic. We were quite impressed with her black gown, lace gloves, Chanel pearl glasses and even some garters (an homage to the Victoria’s Secret brand, we’re sure). But more than anything, we were loving her jewelry, provided by Lynn Bann.

The super sleuths that we are, we realized Rihanna has been rocking some great jewelry by the brand. From pyramid earrings to simple but chic necklaces, the jewelry is tough but still girlish, just like Rihanna.

And lucky for you, today we are featuring an item new to Shop Lucky! This Lynn Ban 18k yellow gold “spiked” ring is so unique. More to the point, it’s rare and we can’t find it anywhere, which makes it a true treasure!  We’re undecided about whether the spikes represent shark teeth or a dangerous but pretty crown. Either way, the look is consistent with Lynn Ban. A strong statement with an elegant edge.
This would be a great gift, and paired with a monochromatic fashion statement, would get you just about as much attention as Rihanna gets. A win win in our book!

Revenge is So Sweet

Wednesday, October 31st, 2012

On the latest episode of Revenge, aired October 28, 2012, we couldn’t help but fall deeper for the woman we love to hate, Victoria. Ever the fashion plate, Shop Lucky has been swooning over Victoria (Madeleine Stowe) and her penchant for theatrical dressing, from bandage dresses to Roland Mouret and beyond. Although one of her more subtle looks, we found Victoria’s “snoop through other people’s things” outfit this Sunday one of our favorites. Clad in a black v-neck top and skirt, Victoria is confronted by Mason ( Roger Bart) over one of the many, many lies she has told. But we could forgive her, especially if she handed over the gorgeous necklace she was wearing!

A wonderful contrast to her alabaster skin and raven hair, Victoria’s long strand onyx necklace is wrapped around her neck, glimmering away as she continues her deceit. While we don’t condone her actions, we sure are buying what she is selling.

The best news of all: you don’t have to be a sinister Grayson to get Victoria’s look. Shop Lucky has the perfect accompaniment to all of your v-necks, dresses and more for holiday parties, dramatic birthday dinners and beyond. Made of sterling silver, our David Yurman Bijoux collection necklace featuring onyx, black spinel, ruby and gold beads is forty-eight inches long (Perfect for wrapping) and retails for $1750.00 at DavidYurman.com.  In typical Shop Lucky fashion, we would never make you pay that much for this beautiful designer necklace. Inquire within at 215-92LUCKY or timothy@shoplucky.com for your chance to own this au courant stunner.

Calvin Klein that had a very long and flowing skirt. It also featured a very unusual neckline as well as
Bulgari drop earrings as well as a Bulgari Serpenti diamond bracelet. The earrings were even more

the best at the box office.

The Bulgari Serpenti bracelet that adorned her wrist featured 18k white gold and pave diamonds. The
stunning bracelet wrapped around the wrist one and a half times, offering a significant amount of
diamonds in order to do so. The luxurious jewelry was designed by Bulgari, who has been in the jewelry

Instagram is an iPhone application exploding with art and personal expression. It allows a user to take pictures of their surroundings, friends, outfits, concerts or first pumpkin spice latte of the season (guilty as charged). After the shot is taken, the user can saturate and crop the photo, adding “filter” effects very similar to those found in Photoshop. Images go from plain Jane to Vogue-worthy in seconds. Shoplucky hearts Instagram because it is a constant stream of beauty and eye candy. In particular, we love accessory details and especially jewelry pictures (no surprise).

We believe that after the blazer is ironed and paired with the perfect blouse, after the shoes come out of their pretty boxes and you’re heading out the door for that divine sushi dinner, there is nothing more important than finishing the outfit with the right touch. Gold, silver, diamonds, sapphires-we salute it all. Because there is nothing better than that shimmer on your hand while hailing that yellow cab, that glimmer set off by the street lamps, the shine as you navigate your way in style.

Kristen Stewart Shows up to MTV in Melinda Maria

Wednesday, September 5th, 2012

Kristen Stewart showed up to the 2012 MTV Sneak Peek Week in May wearing an orange Balenciaga
quilted motorcycle jacket along with Balenciaga skinny jeans that were so tight they looked like they
were painted on. To compliment her look, she wore a gold Pyramid 1 necklace by Melinda Maria. The
sneak peek week held by MTV is an annual event that helps to build the anticipation of the MTV Movie
Awards. A number of movies were shown, including Stewart’s “Snow White and the Huntsman” where
she played the title role, Snow White.


There are two movies coming out this year that feature Kristen Stewart. The first was “Snow White and
the Huntsman” which also features Charlize Theron as the evil queen. Even though there was a lot of
hype about the movie, it didn’t do as well in theatres as many people expected it to. As for the other
movie, it will be the second part of the Twilight finale, “Breaking Dawn,” which also features Robert
Pattinson, her real life boyfriend. Stewart and Pattinson have been in the news recently because of an
alleged affair that Stewart had with the director from the Snow White movie. When she admitted the
fair to Pattinson, he moved out and has refused to comment to the press about the event, saying simply
that he’s heartbroken.

The Pyramid 1 necklace was on a gold chain featuring an upside down pyramid hanging low in the
middle of Kristen Stewart’s chest. The design was by Melinda Maria who has been dazzling some of the
hottest stars around the world. E! television has given her the title of “Hollywood’s Bling Queen” and
she accepts the title very gratefully. Her designs have been seen on such top celebrities as Madonna,
Kate Hudson, Jennifer Lopez, Megan Fox and countless others. Her jewelry has also been seen in
movies and TV shows in addition to on the red carpet. Melinda Maria also believes in giving pack to
the community. A percentage of her sales go to a number of global charities that include the Cura
Orphanage as well as the Leonardo diCaprio Foundation. Melinda Maria’s collections can be found in
golf and silver and spends a significant amount of attention to the details. Every stone that is set into
the jewelry is set with the same precision as other jewelers set a diamond. Her designs can be found
online as well as with a number of boutiques around the world. As more and more celebrities don her
designs, she is able to gain more notoriety, allowing her to become a household name like some of the
jewelry greats that have been gracing the red carpets for decades. Her designs continue to take on a
very modern look and every design is slightly different from the last one. She has been asked to design a
number of pieces especially for various celebrities and has happily obliged each and every time.
