Pippa Middleton has a new bag—the “Romina” by Aruna Seth—and we got the inside scoop on the style straight from the London accessories designer. “Pippa and Kate both love black suede, so you can see why the Romina fits in seamlessly into Pippa’s wardrobe,” Seth told InStyle.com exclusively. And with the comfortable shoulder strap and multiple interior compartments, it’s easy to see why Miss Middleton scooped it up. “It’s the ultimate everyday bag,” added Seth, who also designed the butterfly crystal pumps Pippa wore to the Royal Wedding reception. “For Pippa this works since she’s a busy woman on the go.” Shop the style for $920 at arunaseth.com.

Rihanna’s $5,000 Grammy Manicure

Feb 17, 2012 @ 2:10 pm

What if your manicure cost $5,000? Rihanna’s Grammy look did! The singer attended the awards show with Red Carpet Manicure’s “Amor 24” shade swiped on her fingertips. Each bottle contains a full ounce of 24-karat gold, and sells for a cool $5,000. While individual units of this pricey polish aren’t available for sale, the company will be auctioning off a few and donating proceeds to charity. Luckily, there is an easier way to score metallic talons: Red Carpet Manicure will release a similar-looking polish named Award Winning at redcarpetmanicure.com this spring—with a much more manageable $10 price tag.
