Not content with their already booming fashion empire, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are adding to their already successful Elizabeth and James Line — with jewelry, reports Women’s Wear Daily. The designing duo have teamed with famed jewelry designer, Robert Lee Morris, for their newest adventure in fashion. After seeing Morris be honored with a Lifetime Achievement Awards at last year’s CFDA Fashion Awards, the twins set their hears on working with the industry legend, who has created pieces for everyone from Calvin Klein and Donna Karan to Karl Lagerfeld in his forty year-plus career. The Olsens and Morris have created 80-plus styles for the jewelry line, including cuffs, earrings, necklaces and rings made from silver and antiqued brass. Motifs snakes, beetles, crosses and daggers. Ashley Olsen tells Women’s Wear Daily, “The symbols are attachable and you can take the jewelry and make it your own. There are solid silver and gold pieces to wear forever and comfort pieces that you’ll put on and wear everywhere.” Pieces will range from $65 to $700 and will hit Intermix stores nationwide in September. Tell us: Will you buy the Olsens’ new jewelry line?

The internet is abuzz with reports that Harry Potter star Emma Watson is stepping in to replace Keira Knightley as the face of their Mademoiselle fragrance — to the tune of a 3 million pound contract! Unfortunately for Watson, unless there is a magic trick at foot, this is all simply smoke and mirrors. A rep for Chanel tells PEOPLE that the rumor is “100 percent not true. We can’t figure out where this came from. It’s everywhere!” Tell us: Who would you prefer in Chanel ads? Current face Keira or Emma?
