Jewelry Designers Partner With Celebrities
The concept of Jewelry "Branding" is nothing new to many designer Jewelry companies. There are some jewelry manufacturers who have recently partnered with celebrities to promote their designer jewelry.
Unlike with advertising and marketing which takes years to really make an impact; Celebrities offer instant name recognition.
The house of Mouawad (jewelers) has collaborated with supermodel Heidi Klum on a jewelry collection for the last three years. Klum designed a jewelry collection that includes about 100 pieces of fine jewelry priced from $300 to $80,000. Klum is heavily involved in creating the line and can offer her fans a product with more than just her stamp of approval as a spokesmodel.
In addition to her involvement in the design, Klum is extremely visible in the Jewelry's marketing, appearing in advertisements and at special events promoting the line, to help customers make the connection between the products and her name and image.
A-list actor Brad Pitt has also been affiliated with Fashion Jewelry Designer, Damiani after working with the designer to create wedding rings for himself and his (soon to be ex) wife Jennifer Aniston.
More recently, Damiani has partnered with actress Gwyneth Paltrow to be their spokesmodel for 2005.

While jewelry manufacturers benefit from the instant branding of their jewelry products, the partnership offers benefits to the celebrities as well.
Robert Thompson, an expert of popular culture and Professor at Syracuse University says that the move toward celebrity products represents a natural evolution for celebrities, spurred partly by the American public's facination with them. He adds that jewelry is especially suited to celebrity endorsements due to its grandeur.
"Jewelry is one of those luxury items that you get for its association with glamour and wealth, and the kind of lifestyle that only big celebrities can sell and endorse.," he says.
The celebrities themselves are seeing that, rather than being advertisements for someone else's designs, they can create (and profit from) their own design. This is a very powerful motivator for them and has been the catalyst for many celebrities including Paris Hilton, Jennifer Lopez and Pamela Anderson launching (their own) wildly successful fashion jewelry collections.

Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

I'll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it'll do even better in those areas, but for now it's a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod's strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.

This is actually a intelligent weblog. I mean it. You've got so a lot knowledge about this problem, and so much passion. You also know how to make individuals rally behind it, clearly from the responses. Youve got a style here thats not too flashy, but makes a statement as large as what youre saying. Great job, indeed.

Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It's very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.
