Gwyneth Paltrow has modeled for Coach, Tod’s, Estee Lauder, and even her own Goop line. Now, the actress lends her smile to Hugo Boss as the face of the label’s new scent, Boss Nuit Pour Femme. The perfume is inspired by the elegance and simplicity of a classic LBD, which is why Paltrow models a sleek, one-shoulder version in the campaign seen above. Head over to Hugo Boss’s YouTube channel to see her video, and keep an eye out for Boss Nuit Pour Femme, which hits stores later this month.

Olympics 2012 Beach Volleyball: Kerri Walsh Jennings and Misty May-Treanor’s Necklaces

Jul 31, 2012 @ 4:00 pm

Before the Olympics began in London, beach volleyball superstar Kerri Walsh Jennings headed to Me & Ro studio in New York City to shop for some special pieces for herself and teammate Misty May-Treanor. “Kerri wore her Me & Ro Love & Om pendant when they won the gold medal in Beijing,” Me & Ro designer Robin Renzi told InStyle.com. “She wanted special pieces for this Olympics.” And she was very particular about one thing—it had to be gold. “When Kerri came to the studio I was showing her everything but she didn’t want to look at the silver line,” Renzi added. “She said ‘I only want gold. I need to win.’ She was a beautiful Amazon with an amazing competitive spirit.” Click through to see all of jewels and the personal inscriptions close-up.
