Whitney Port Unveils Jewelry Look Book

It was only a few weeks ago that reality TV star-turned-designer Whitney Port shared a peek at her vintage-inspired new jewelry line, Bits & Bobs, which will be available this fall. Now, the full lookbook is live on Port's website. A quick click-through reveals antiqued gold long necklaces, earrings, pins, cuff bracelets and even crowns.
Whitney blogged about her latest venture:“The time has finally come!!!! The Bits & Bobs by Whitney Eve look book is here and I am so ready for you to check it out!"
“I have absolutely loved designing this first season of jewelry and cannot wait for many more! It has been such an intriguing learning experience to work with metals. I had a blast going through the bins and bins of chains, beads, brooches and vintage jewelry in order to achieve what we have made. I absolutely love making jewelry because it is that one touch of sparkle, that one statement piece that can make an outfit shine."

Whitney Port Visits Philadelphia

It's been several years since MTV's "The Hills" and "The City" went off air, but Whitney Port continues to prove that her interests in fashion and clothing design are not exclusive to her reality-TV show days. On Thursday, the 27-year-old star, designer and author attended a garden tea party at Apricot Lane Boutique in Suburban Square in Ardmore. This was Port's very first visit to Philadelphia, as she was in town to promote the launch of her new, budget-friendly fashion line, WE by Whitney Eve, which combines signature styles from her original Whitney Eve collection with a more modern appeal. Port was dressed in a printed shirt paired beneath a relaxed, off-white blazer from her WE Collection, black skinny jeans and studded Giuseppe Zanotti heels. This is what the scene looked like at Apricot Lane: Ms. Port was greeted by a line of girls- some on the verge of fandemonium breakdowns- as each patiently waited her turn to meet her. Always the sweetheart, the designer interacted with all of the attendees, taking pictures and providing a style consultation for the local winner of the store's facebook contest. (An added bonus for guests was that the cupcake truck was parked right outside of the boutique.) "Whitney was so wonderful to all of our guests and made this event extra special just with her personality and style advice alone, said Ashley Seiden, co-owner of Apricot Lane.

Whitney Port: "I Want People To Take Me Seriously as a Designer"

Whitney Port may appear glamorous as a budding fashion designer but insists "casual is more [her] style".
The reality star is set to showcase the fourth collection from her label Whitney Eve at New York Fashion Week in September. The brand, which was first unveiled in 2008, is being launched globally in Australia, Sweden and Norway this year.
She says her clothes reflect her own personal style.
"I design clothes that I want to wear," she told the UK edition of Grazia.
"I love getting glammed up, but casual is more my style."
She also describes her style as eclectic, funky, bright and cheery. Her new collection mirrors her own dress sense with pieces including bright leggings, fitted jackets, floral dresses and tailored shorts. Whitney, who first came to fame on hit reality show The Hills, insists she creates her own designs.
"I work with a design assistant and a print designer but it's mostly me, it's my baby," she revealed.
Whitney admits moving from TV into fashion has been tough. She says gaining credibility as a designer has been the biggest hurdle.
"I want people to take me seriously as a designer," she said.
"That hasn't always been easy. Proving myself as a valid fashion designer is the hardest aspect. And finding investment is a challenge. There aren't many who want to support new designers, but I've had people rooting for me."

While she is focused on her fashion line, Whitney is not finished with television. SMs. Port just finished filming a stint on the judging panel of Britain and Ireland's Next Top Model along with Elle Macpherson and Tyson Beckford.
"I'm back in front of the camera but this is different. I've found my voice now. I have the ability to speak up if I need to and it's really the first time on TV that I've been able to do that," she said.

Whitney Port & Elle Macpherson Shine at the Rodial Beautiful Awards in London

For any girl doubting themselves on how to dress to suit their shape, should take inspiration from Elle Macpherson and Whitney Port.
The two blondes both looked equally radiant at the third annual Rodial Beautiful Awards held at London's five star hotel The Sanderson - but both opted for very different styles.
Elle looked utterly jaw-dropping in an androgynous white suit that created curves and shape along her slender silhouette, while Whitney channelled her inner Grecian goddess in a gold lace toga by Julien Macdonald.
