    Gala for TOUS and the TOUS Miami collection this spring in New York. On May 12th Spanish jewelry brand

    that capture love and tender moments.

    TOUS invites you to be captivated by a story of love and tender moments with ‘ Tender Stories No.

    2’. Under the helm of Victor Carrey, it is beautifully shot and filled with cheekiness highlighting

    feelings of love, fun and tenderness that are always present in every collection.

    The TOUS SS15 collection pays tribute to the true icons of the Miami lifestyle revolving around palm

    trees, the beach and sunshine. Vibrant shades of turquoise, aquamarine and pink characterize every

    piece made of 18Kt yellow gold, sterling silver, titanium and embellished with crystals, quartz and

    diamonds.

    The Gala for TOUS collection, a partnership with Spanish blogger Gala Gonzáles is the perfect

    extension of the film’s spirit, playfulness and charm. The collection is inspired by organic and ethnic

    elements which, combined with a palette of highly natural colors, reflects the fresh, bohemian and

    non­conformist style of today’s It girl.

    The collection is made up of pendants, earrings, rings and bracelets crafted of sterling silver vermeil

    or yellow gold and rose gold. The pieces have an irregular finish that is reminiscent of the textures

    of nature and combine with unique gemstones faceted into irregular shapes, including rutilated

    quartz, emerald, ruby and brown diamonds.

    Both Gala for TOUS and TOUS Miami collection can be purchased exclusively on the online store at

    Tous.com and in TOUS stores in leading cities in the world.

    Get the Hair: Jessica Chastain at the Met Gala

    Celebrity Hair Stylist Ryan Trygstad for S Factor by TIGI created a seriously glamorous, Rita Hayworth-inspired look for Jessica Chastain as she graced the Met Gala Red Carpet in Givenchy.
    “We were inspired by Rita Hayworth and the serious glamour of her era. I researched exactly how Rita set her hair back in the 40s and drew inspiration from there. The look is a cross between a sideswept updo and a faux bob that perfectly displays Jessica’s gorgeous ruby earrings.” – Ryan Trygstad

    Hairstylist on MTV’s Finding Carter Shares Styling Tips

    1. Start out by cleansing and treating the hair with RBpro Essentials Moisture Shampoo ($17) and Moisture Conditioner ($17). This duo is sulfate and paraben free. Their powerful anti-aging and collagen-building properties act as a barrier to seal the hair cuticle and protect from fading and damage. This is a great way to maintain and keep reds like this bright for filming.

    2. When we are on set, I am blow drying every day and then restyling the hair can cause stress, breakage and fly-always. I make sure to reach for RBPro Essentials Everyday Miracle Repair Treatment ($17) when hair is damp and apply it just before I begin heat styling. It is a must for maintaining the integrity and over-all health of the hair. The treatment is weightless, which is important when using it on fine hair like Ms. Prescott’s.

    3. Since Finding Carter is shot in Hot-Atlanta’s humidity, it’s important to thoroughly blow dry hair in stages. Section the hair off into 4 main parts, then thoroughly blow dry root to end. This will ensure great long lasting and smooth volume. I always use RBpro Essentials Le Deux Styling Crème($17). No flat iron or curling iron needed. It’s a blow-n-go!

    4. To finish the style, a shot of White Sands Infinity Finishing Spray ($22) at the root area will always insure fullness. Finishing off a Hollywood style with White Sands is a guarantee your glamour work will endure the long day of shooting! This spray just holds the style no matter what the weather or shooting conditions are like.
