All eyes were on the Pretty Woman as she introduced the legendary Dave Matthews Band at the Stand Up For A Cure Concert Series in New York. Julia Roberts may have made a strong political statement in her Obama T-shirt, but she also made quite a style statement with her sparkling Me & Ro 18K Gold Right Turning Conch Amulet. The shiny necklace is engraved with The Right Turning Conch that symbolizes the endless spread of the Buddha’s teachings. The conch is one of the oldest ritual objects and stands for femininity and as a musical offering. Julia’s is on a custom-made 19 inch chain, but you can get your hands on a similar one in a different length at meandrojewelry.com MeandRo.com for $1,880.

While other Hollywood stars are setting their sights on conquering the worlds of fashion, fragrance — or even hair extensions — Eva Mendes is poised to make her mark on home design. Macy’s has just revealed exclusively to PEOPLE that the actress, along with partner George Augusto, is collaborating with them on a line of luxury bedding that will launch online and in stores at the middle of this month. The Latin-inspired collection, Vida, will come in five styles, each of which, like Bettina above, will feature rich patterns and intricate detailing. “Vida is all about easy luxury,” Mendes says. “The colors, fabrics and textures that I live and love, brought to life in a stylish, comfortable and affordable way.” So what does it cost to crawl under Eva’s covers? A four-piece queen set, which includes a comforter, bedskirt and two shams, will set you back between $340 to $425. Tell us: Will you get cozy in Eva’s bedding?
