Britney Spears’s ‘Princess’ Engagement Ring: All the Details!

Britney Spears may be a pop-star diva to the rest of the world, but to beau Jason Trawick, “she’s his everyday princess,” says celebrity jeweler Neil Lane, who designed Spears’s dazzling engagement ring to befit Trawick’s vision of the singer’s down-home regality. “Jason is a romantic and when I asked him to tell me about Britney and what the ring would represent to them so I could find inspiration, his response was always the same — she is his princess!”

With that theme in mind, Lane tells PEOPLE he designed from scratch a tiara-motif sparkler with a round, perfect white diamond in a handmade platinum setting that “looks like a mini crown,” the celebrated jeweler says. He also added 90 small round diamonds around the eternity band. “Jason didn’t want an over-the-top ring with a giant stone,” he adds.

Britney Spears Introduces a New Fragrance, Cosmic Radiance

Smell like Britney — again! Femme Fatale Britney Spears is bringing some luster to her namesake fragrance franchise this August with the debut of her newest scent, Cosmic Radiance. Inspired by her current Femme Fatale album and tour, the sensual floral fragrance is a tribute to bold, confident, fun and flirty women. “I believe that all women can create their own world where they shine the brightest,” Spears said in a release. “It’s all about having the power and confidence to be yourself. When I wear my new scent, Cosmic Radiance, I feel beautiful, empowered and sexy.” Like the black-and-white jewels on the new bottle, the fragrance will be more contrasted and complex than the original, last year’s Radiance. It’s infused with a splash of citrus along with notes of amber, sandalwood and liquid vanilla. The eau de parfum spray starts at $39.50 per bottle, and will be available across the globe at select retailers and at Kohl’s stores nationwide. –Caroline Slutsky

Who Has the Hottest Summer Tour Style?

Splash News Online (3); PictureGroup

Summer 2011 doesn’t just belong to “California Gurls” — it’s all about Rihanna, Taylor, Britney and of course Katy, too! The pop princesses (and country queen) are all on the road, greeting their fans and performing their hits on their respective summer tours. Katy Perry’s California Dreams tour features numerous candy-coated costume changes, including a Jeremy Scott-designed look inspired by Hershey’s kisses. Britney Spears’s Femme Fatale tour is a journey through the starlet’s pop-hit past, with costumes including a snake charmer outfit and mirrored gold jacket (plus some super-cute makeup artists). Rihanna’s Loud tour presents the redhead in a series of Swarovski crystal-studded outfits, including a racy bra and panty set. And Taylor Swift is showing off her style — and her musical talent (she plays several different instruments!) — on her Speak Now tour, where the Nashville star shows off her gams in short and sexy skirts. We love all the ladies’ looks, but want to know what you think.

Sneak Peek: Britney Spears’s Sexy ‘Femme Fatale’ Tour Costumes

When Britney Spears hits the tour circuit in Sacramento, Calif., come Thursday, she’ll be dancing “Till the World Ends” in her signature sexy style. We got a sneak peek of the singer’s sultry “Femme Fatale” tour costumes, courtesy of designer Zaldy Goco, and the looks are smoldering. “The true muse for me … is Britney herself,” Goco tells PEOPLE. “She has such a clear idea of how she wants to present herself and what she wants to deliver to her fans.” The show’s concept, though, comes from tour director Jamie King, who wanted to present femme fatales throughout the years. “The idea to create iconic personas or disguises for Britney was really inspirational,” Goco says. Spears will take the stage in a shimmering silver outfit — “the simple colorless crystal is so pure on stage, the brilliance is like nothing else,” Goco shares — and during her performances, change into looks like a mirrored gold jacket, snake charmer outfit, kimono featuring a “Japanime Britney” and more. There’s also some “spikey stud couture,” as Goco says; a purple leather jacket covered with thousands of pink chrome studs, safety pins, spikes and chains. “It’s something you haven’t seen before,” he explains. “We found the one place in America that could make that dream come true.” But the true showstopper? Her daring black Swarovski crystal-covered closing number outfit, which illuminates with LED lights and animates fire and lightening. Says Goco, “It’s the pièce de résistance.” Tell us: Are you excited to see Spears on tour? –Kate Hogan
