Rachel Bilson’s Next Role: Jewelry Designer with a Heart
By Jessica
Actress and In Style Magazine Contributing Editor, Rachel Bilson is one of the most influential personas in the fashion sphere. She has become a fixture on the ‘Best-Dressed’ list of major fashion magazines with her impeccable style and immaculate sartorial tastes. So her latest venture as a jewelry designer didn’t exactly come as a surprise, but that doesn’t mean we’re any less thrilled about it.
After a trip to Botswana and South Africa where she learned about the diamond mining industry, the 28-year-old starlet designed a bracelet for the Diamond Empowerment Fund (DEF). The rustic bracelet ($100) is the perfect accessory for every wrist with its tan leather strings and delicate gold charm with an inset round diamond. Twenty percent of proceeds go to the DEF to build student housing at the CIDA City Campus University in Johannesburg.
