Angelina Jolie’s Jewelry Line: “Chic and Contemporary”

You’ve seen the serious sparklers, but just what went into the creation of Angelina Jolie‘s new jewelry line, Style of Jolie? “She has been involved, every step of the way,” jeweler Robert Procop tells PEOPLE. “She wanted to create some beautiful art around jewels with the mission of helping children.” Jolie and Procop, who’s styled the actress in the past, started the project in August of 2010, creating storyboards, researching gems and metals and considering various designs. “Angelina has a very classic style. She is very chic and contemporary,” Procop explains. “[The collection] is what she enjoys wearing on the red carpet, but also what she enjoys wearing when she’s at home. It’s also what she enjoys giving as a gift.” In fact, at Christmas, Brad Pitt gifted Jolie with a bracelet similar to the the five-row white quartz tablet bracelet (above) after seeing her design. Another piece the actress particularly loves is the Angelina Jolie exceptional emerald necklace (above), containing 44 green gems totaling 103.48 carats. “It’s probably one of the finest collections of cushion emeralds ever assembled,” Procop says. “The stones are just so bright.” Though the line — which features pieces starting at $4,000 and benefits the Education Partnership for Children of Conflict — is only available to private clients at the moment, Procop hints that later this year, a more accessible retail version will hit the market. But for now, the jewels are hitting the road: after a short stint in Beverly Hills, they’ll move on to a gallery in Monaco for about two weeks. Seems they’re following in the footsteps of their jet-setting creator! Tell us: What do you think of Jolie’s jewelry line? Reporting by Kate Hallett

Sneak a Peek at Angelina Jolie’s Jewelry Collection

Angelina Jolie is perfectly accessorized on the red carpet, whether she’s wearing dainty earrings or statement-making gems. And now, the actress will always have something to pair with her pretty dresses thanks to her new jewelry line, Style of Jolie. The collection, which she designed over the course of the last nine months with jeweler Robert Procop, is currently on display by invitation only at Julien’s Gallery in Beverly Hills, but we have a sneak peek! In the clip above, Procop says the line is made of “artistic forms using gemstones as a centerpiece.” And there are already celebrity fans: Robert Downey Jr.’s wife, Susan, wore earrings from the collection at the Oscars in February. Though Jolie won’t be on hand to showcase her jewels, proceeds from the exhibition will benefit Children in Crisis, the charity of her choice. Check out some of Jolie’s gems in the clip above!

Day or Night: Which Johnny Depp Look Do You Like Better?

Day or Night: Which Johnny Depp Look Do You Like Better?
Target/Fame; Ramey

He may be sharing the red carpet with Angelina Jolie to promote The Tourist, but Johnny Depp has been getting more than his fair share of attention for his sartorial choices during the film’s world tour. The actor, who stepped out in two very different outfits on Dec. 16 for promotional events in Madrid, Spain, first got cameras flashing in a messy cowboy-inspired ensemble of head-to-toe denim and a pinstriped vest—complete with a fedora and scarf-like rags. Later that night, Depp cleaned up his act, hitting the red carpet in a dapper Polo Ralph Lauren charcoal glen plaid three-piece suit, which he accented with a red pocket square and bold framed glasses. And while Depp can pull off just about any style with his striking good looks and A-list charm, we can’t decide which look we like better. Tell us: Do you prefer a funky daytime or dapper evening look for Johnny Depp? Vote in our poll below!Jessie Goldberg

The nods are in for the 2011 Golden Globes and nominees like Natalie Portman, Angelina Jolie and Anne Hathaway are poised to bring their fiercest fashions yet to the winter awards season. Nominated for turns in Black Swan, The Tourist and Love and Other Drugs, respectively, the actresses have each brought a certain je ne sais quoi to their red carpet looks. While Portman continues to tap into her feminine side with elegant frocks by Jason Wu, Rodarte and Lanvin, Jolie has taken to more sophisticated silhouettes from the likes of Atelier Versace. Never one to shy away from a fashion risk, Oscar co-host Hathaway’s recent choices have run the gamut from timeless Dolce & Gabbana to edgier looks from Miu Miu to well, her birthday suit! And with other recognized actresses including Michelle Williams, Halle Berry and Nicole Kidman in contention, the show will surely bring some serious competition—on, and off, the red carpet. Tune in to the 68th annual Golden Globes on NBC on Sunday, Jan. 16. Tell us: Who are you most excited to see at the 2011 Golden Globes? –Justine Harman

Angelina Jolie’s ‘Tourist’ Style Secrets

Angelina Jolie might be one of modern cinema’s most iconic vixens, but when creating her look for the new movie The Tourist, her costume designer looked to classic film noir glamour. “My inspiration for [Jolie's character] Elise’s costumes were the Hitchcock movies: minimal elegance,” Academy Award-winning costume designer Colleen Atwood, who worked on the thriller, tells PEOPLE. In one scene, Jolie’s character dashes off to a ball in Venice, Italy, wearing a glamorous, flowing black gown topped off with a diamond-studded choker (below). “The black gown was designed to evoke the grand life, and to frame Angelina Jolie’s beauty,” Atwood explains. “The necklace was created by Robert Procop from an antique tiara, and [the diamonds were] definitely real!” Another eye-catching number from the film, an ivory sheath accented with a camel shawl and gloves (above), had a royal lineage as well. “That look was inspired by a dress designed by Irene [Lentz], who is a legendary costume designer,” Atwood says. “I took the basic idea and added some flair to contemporize it. The original had a jacket, but I really wanted something a little more luxurious, so I created the cashmere wrap. I’ve always loved a glove, and was filming in the land of fine gloves, so I used a fine suede glove to finish the look.” –Sara Hammel
