Elizabeth Hurley (”Liz” In The Media) Loves Celebrity Charity and High Fashion, Rolex Watches and Valentino Couture
Posted by John Lavitt and filed under Diamond Jewelry, Rolex Pop Culture |
Elizabeth Hurley, who is simply known as “Liz” by the media and her fascinated fans, loves to be seen on the town, dressed to the nines and wearing a gold Rolex watch. Whether in Hollywood or London, New Delhi or Milan, Liz Hurley always is photographed at the best parties and the most celebrated events. Her gold 18k Rolex President goes with any outfit and makes sure that she arrives on time. Beyond the celebrity fast lane of fame and fortune, Austin Powers and Hugh Grant, Elizabeth Hurley spends a lot of her time finding ways to give back through charity and public appearances. Recently, Elizabeth Hurley donated a picture of her son to appear on a British stamp. Six-year-old Damian is seen dressed in a T-shirt and multi-colored hat in the photo. Liz said: “The images I have chosen mean a lot to me as a mother and it is great that my photography can be used in a way that benefits others.” The picture was turned into a limited edition stamp to raise money for the domestic violence charity, Women’s Aid. A Royal Mail representative said: “This is the third year we have run this auction. It has proved to be so popular that we invited Elizabeth to come on board for 2009 and are keen to raise as much money as possible for these worthwhile causes.” The two postage stamps of Damien, featuring signed photos of the actress, sold by auction on eBay for over £1,550. When Elizabeth Hurley believes in a cause, she does her best to take action and help the less fortunate.
Yes, Elizabeth Hurley does give back in the philanthropic tradition of the Hans Wilsdorf Foundation, but she always knows how to give the very best to herself as well. When it came time to get married, Elizabeth Hurley chose an amazing spot for her wedding: the Umaid Bhawan Palace in India, which is made of yellow stone and marble. It was commissioned by Umaid Singh, grandfather of the present Maharaja, in 1929. He wanted to find jobs for his people so he paid 11 million rupees (a fortune at the time) for 3,000 workers to toil for 15 years. Clearly, Liz Hurley thinks it was worth every single rupee: she rode an elephant across the lawns of the 26-acre gardens to a flower-strewn gazebo to marry multi-millionaire Arun Nayar. When she became a new wife, her husband must have emphasized the importance of being on time because Liz Hurley has been pictured on multiple occasions with her husband by her side and her gold 18k Rolex President on her wrist. Even as a married woman, Liz Hurley still hangs out with the A-list. When the Wall Street Journal recently reviewed the opening of a new documentary about superstar designer Valentino, the writer wrote: “There’s no doubt that Valentino Garavani, founder of the $1 billion-plus fashion brand that bears his name, is a living relic of “La Dolce Vita.” To enter the orbit of Valentino is to join a world of skiing in Gstaad, debating over hand-stitched sequin strips for couture dresses and hosting glamorous parties attended by A-list celebrities from Liz Taylor to Liz Hurley.” Indeed, as an A-list celebrity, Liz Hurley attends the most fabulous parties and events in the world, and she usually wears her gold Rolex President to make sure she arrives fashionably late.
