I’ve always loved Kimora Lee Simmons, but never more than right now.  As someone who adores animals, I have a special place in my heart for people who also embrace them. 

The beautiful fashion empress/reality TV star is going au naturel  for a gorgeous new, eye-catching campaign for PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals).

Kimora, dolled out in angel wings, no less, and holding her adorable dog, Zoe, demonstrates her desire for people to make dogs a part of their families-and not leave them tied up outside or cooped up at home alone all day. “You cannot just chain up an animal,” Simmons said. “The chains are heavy, it’s cruel. Dogs need to run and play.”

Kimora  urges people to do whatever they can to help neglected backyard dogs. “Everybody should do the best they can, because a lot of little ‘best-you-cans’ add up to a lot of saved animals.”

According to a PETA spokesperson, the campaign was launched to coincide with national Unchain a Dog Month, which is observed every January.

Kimora Lee Simmons has donated more than $20,000 to PETA to help severely underprivileged dogs living in low-income, rural areas. “Thanks to her generosity, more than 100 dogs have received sturdy, weather-tight doghouses with a shade overhang for summer, straw bedding, toys, and new collars and harnesses,” the rep said. “Simmons’ funding of PETA’s program provides not only truckloads of houses but also staff to deliver them, truck rental and gas, and the equipment to dig up fences and posts that commonly tangle dogs’ tethers.”

If the wings she’s wearing look familiar, there’s a reason.  They were designed by Martin Izquierdo, the same designer who made Victoria’s Secret’s ads so famous.  Well…he helped make them famous.  There were the models’ contributions, of course.
The wings were, thankfully, made out of 100 percent cruelty-free materials.

Now here’s a watch that’s living the Glamorous life - Flossy Flossy.  Is this gorgeous or what?  I’ve spent more days than I’d ever care to count poking around in the world of jewelry, handbags, perfume and all things girl-y - but I’ve never seen a watch quite like this one.

Maybe it’s because cats are another great passion of mine, but I absolutely love this bracelet watch.  I’m even wild about the name:  The  Show Girl Bracelet Watch.

Indeed!

The signature cat is outlined in crystals on tiger eye texture degrade dials in pink.  The crown has matching color cabochon inset.

Just look at how shiny and elegant this piece is - can’t you picture it with a great black or white top or dress? - Something somewhat understated because this would be the showstopper.  Exactly what you’d expect from a Bracelet Watch that goes by the name Show Girl.
