Her engagement ring caused quite a stir, but Angelina Jolie is hoping the latest gems from her jewelry line, Style of Jolie, attract even more attention.

“It’s a labor of love,” Jolie’s co-designer, Robert Procop, tells PEOPLE. That’s in part because 100 percent of profits benefit the actress’s charity, the Education Partnership for Children of Conflict. In fact, she’s planning to break ground on a school for girls in Qala Gadu, Afghanistan, using funds from jewelry sales.

“Our commitment is always supporting the children’s charity, which remains the overall intention and purpose of the collection,” Procop adds.

Pregnant Kristin Cavallari Has ‘Retired’ Her Highest Heels

Expecting a baby boy in August, Kristin Cavallari has stylishly breezed through her pregnancy — but she has made a few fashion concessions in the name of comfort.

“I’m definitely wearing more ballet flats,” she tells PEOPLE. “I’ll wear heels to dinner. I’ve retired my highest heels for a bit, though!”

Admitting she doesn’t have any tricks to giving her feet a break — “I just don’t wear heels the next day if my feet hurt,” she shares — the reality starlet says she first fell in love with shoes in fifth grade, when she had a pair of platforms that her mom hated. “But I didn’t get really into shoes until I was 18,” she says, “when I discovered Louboutins.”

Cavallari, a brand ambassador for Chinese Laundry, says she’s had a lot of fun in her role. “I love connecting with my fans on fashion, especially shoes, and this has been the perfect platform,” she says, lauding the brand’s affordability.

Her favorite looks lately? “I love a good platform heel and I’ve been really into strappy heels,” she shares. “Living in California makes you able to wear open-toe shoes year-round, which I love … but it’s also fun to wear cute boots, too!” Tell us: What are your favorite shoe styles?

Emma Stone on Her Met Gala Dress: ‘It Was Rainproof!’

Walking the red carpet at Monday night’s star-studded Met Gala, Emma Stone was totally protected from the elements. “It was rainproof,” she joked to PEOPLE of her daring Lanvin mini. “Those plastic flowers! It was fantastic.”

Attending the Ball with Lanvin designer Alber Elbaz was “great,” the actress shared. “It was pretty exciting. And I did love my dress.”

Stone was dressed up for a different reason Wednesday; the star was at New York’s Essex House hotel to help host the fifth annual Gilda’s Club benefit luncheon (she serves as an ambassador for the organization, which supports people living with cancer).

“It’s so wonderful to be here,” she said. “I’m here with my mom, who is three-and-a-half years clear of breast cancer, so of course it’s incredibly exciting to have her here.” Stone’s mother — a big Gilda Radner fan — spent a lot of time at the Gilda’s Club of Phoenix while undergoing cancer treatments after her diagnosis in 2008.

Coco Rocha Shares an Insider’s Perspective on the Met Gala

Model Coco Rocha earned high marks for her gutsy outfit at Monday’s Met Gala — a sleek Givenchy pantsuit once worn by Elizabeth Taylor — and had a blast at the Ball!

Rocha shared her personal photos with PEOPLE, telling us all about the experience the morning after. Here are some highlights of her big night out, in her words:

Getting ready for the Met Gala was a team effort. At one point we had 12 people in the apartment! I usually do my own hair and makeup for events but for the Met Gala I pay out the big bucks. Everyone who is anyone is there so you want to put your best face forward.

Rocha pumped up her look with curly pink extensions, which were woven into her side ponytail.

When my hairstylist Nico brought the extensions I literally squealed, he had perfectly matched the pink in my vintage Givenchy suit. This was going to be quite the bold look. After about four hours of hair and makeup we realized that James, my husband, had a wrinkled dress shirt so I did some very last-minute ironing like the Suzy Homemaker I am.

Of all the events, I have to say the Met Gala red carpet is most daunting. You have cameras on both sides of you all the way up a red-carpeted staircase. If you turn to one side, the other side boos. You really can’t win.

Beyoncé Does Her Own Makeup — and Cuts Her Own Hair

Beyonce World's Most Beautiful Woman

Beyoncé remembers first trying makeup when she was 6 years old. “I was playing in my mother’s makeup,” she recalls to PEOPLE. “I had blue eye shadow and red lips, and I put crazy blush on. I looked like a clown, but I thought I was so beautiful.”

Her routine has come a long way since then — the singer often does her own makeup for appearances — but her love for the basics remains. When asked what she wears to look awake after sleepless nights spent with baby Blue, she replies, “Lip gloss — I love L’Oréal’s Infallible 8 HR Le Gloss in Coral Sands — and a little bit of blush.”

Growing up around her mom Tina Knowles’s salon, Beyoncé learned a lot about beauty. “I like to experiment [with my hair],” she shares. “I love playing around with highlights or bleaching the tips. I can cut and style my own hair.” In fact, she recently gave herself a trim, cutting two inches off her ends. “I just parted it in the middle and chh-chh-chh,” she reveals.

But it’s inner beauty that she values most — and she hopes to teach her daughter to do the same. “My biggest thing is to teach [Blue] not to focus on the aesthetic,” she says. “It’s really about who you are, and the human being, that makes you beautiful.”
