So, Roberto Cavalli already does watches, but he’s teaming up with Swiss company the Franck Muller Group for a new range of watches that will be ultra expensive and exclusive.

The Ace awards stands for the Accessories Council Excellence Awards and was created in 1996 to pay homage to individuals and groups who’ve made great strides in the accessories industry, “The purpose of the awards is to celebrate those who have had a positive impact on accessory consumption during the prior year,” according to a statement on the ACE website.
As the creative director at House of Harlow 1960, Nicole Richie picked up her award in style.

Hollyscoop caught up with Klum at a QVC event during Fashion's Night Out in New York and talked her new "Wildlife" collection of jewelry.
Klum says fans can expect big, edgy pieces from her new jewelry range like chunky stone bangles, large oval rings, luxurious bib necklaces and metal cuffs.

Mother’s Day is right around the corner and if you still haven’t had a chance to buy Mom a gift, have no fear—we’re here to help!

Here’s Hollyscoop’s list of favorite Mother’s Day Guide Ideas:

After all the hoopla of the Royal Wedding, we’re going to be looking for the next costumed-celeb event to grasp onto: enter the 2011 Kentucky Derby, which will take place May 7th.
And here’s a fun fact: did you know that the Kentucky Derby is actually a horse racing event and not a celebrity hat fashion show? Because I had no idea.
Celebs love the tradition and social flair of the Kentucky Derby, and we love seeing what outrageously overdone hat Kim Kardashian or Jenny McCarthy will be wearing.
The tradition of wearing hats to the Kentucky Derby dates as far back as the Royal Ascot races in the UK, which began in 1711. Started by Queen Anne, there was a strict dress code for the races, which included women wearing hats.
In the United States, patrons of the Kentucky Derby have adopted the hat tradition since 1875. And there aren’t many events in the U.S. in which wearing a lavish hat is appropriate, so we have to take advantage.
Let’s face it, most of us won’t be heading to the Kentucky Derby with Jessica Simpson and Brooke Shields. Hey, you can always round up your Chihuahuas, grab a Smirnoff Ice, and have a mini-race in the backyard.
It’s almost as classy. So in picking out your 2011 Kentucky Derby hats, here are a few Spring/Summer trends that will help you find the perfect fit:
Shimmer With shimmery trends popping up for summer, choose a hat with some glossy detail—like a sleek ribbon.
Lace Lace isn’t going anywhere this summer, but it’s evolving into a more antique-y, classic look—perfect for a traditional Kentucky Derby hat. Lace details would be a good choice, or go bold and choose a hat with a lace veil.
The exotic Think Natalie Portman’s deep purple dress and matching tassel earrings at this year’s Oscars. If you’re feeling a little more daring, go for a bold colored, exotic Kentucky Derby Hat. It doesn’t exactly scream Kentucky, but we can leave that to Loretta Lynn.

Nicky Hilton has been really busy with her new jewelry line that’s a favorite among celebrities.
Modamob.com conducted a one-on-one interview with Hilton to see where she draws inspiration, where she sees her Nicky Hilton label going and her dos and don’ts in fashion.
1) You have a jewelry line. How did you decide to get into designing jewelry?
-
I love jewelry! I've been obsessed with it since I was a little girl. Jewelry adds character to a person and to an outfit. Every piece I own has a interesting story behind it.
2) When was the first time you were excited seeing your jewelry on a celebrity? As a designer, what was that feeling like?
-
It's very exciting seeing someone in my pieces, whether it be a celebrity or a random person walking down the street. Emily Blunt has a worn a bunch of pieces recently. She's so chic and looks great in the line.

Amy Smart moves quickly!
Just after dating for a few months she’s gotten engaged to boyfriend Carter Oosterhouse.
"I just got engaged on Sunday," she told OK! "I'm so happy. It was so beautiful, romantic and I was completely surprised.
"I'm just really happy and enjoying this time."
Congratulations! Now, on to more important things like what’s the engagement ring like?
Smart showed off her ring at the Body Shop Three-Minute Shower Challenge at New York City’s Columbia University Thursday and that thing is HUGE!
The pic was taken from far and the ring still looked huge. She found herself a keeper. And if he’s not a keeper, she can just keep the ring.

Jolie has collaborated with designer Robert Procop for a collection called Style of Jolie that will benefit Empowering Children in Crisis.
“This is a collaboration between Angelina Jolie and myself in designing beautiful jewels as a piece of an art form,” Robert said. “What we’re showing here is a collection that Angelina and I have been working on for the last nine months or so.”
If you wanted to see the collection, you couldn’t because it was shown to an invite only crowd earlier this week. Your best bet is to just watch this video because it’s not like we can afford the jewelry in the first place.

Celebrities such as Fergie, Katy Perry, Britney Spears, and Rihanna have all fallen in love with this amazing line.
Designer, Julianne Waters, created JuJu Gold for the girl who wants to mix glamour and guts into her jewelry.
Some of my favorite pieces from the JuJu gold collection are the dice pinky ring, drop spike earrings, and the 60-spike necklace.
Fergie is a huge fan of the spike bracelet. You can check out JuJu Gold online at www.jujugold.com or at the standard shop in Los Angeles.
