We must celebrate the triumphant and award-sweeping return of Kate Winslet, who in the late 1990s burst into the spotlight with the cinematic juggernaut Titanic. Recently, In 2008, Winslet not only starred in two major motion pictures, but also solidified her place in Hollywood as one of today’s most respected artists. As a serious actor who doesn’t appear to be tainted by the cut-throat business, Kate Winslet is, and will remain, a positive reflection of feminine strength and capability.
Perhaps one of the most highly anticipated aspects of Winslet’s comeback was her on-screen reunion with Titanic co-star Leonardo DiCaprio. Having made a respected name for himself with films such as Blood Diamond and The Departed, DiCaprio met Winslet head-on for the emotionally-charged film Revolutionary Road. For this film, Winslet has already won the Golden Globe for “Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture - Drama,” as well as a nomination from the Screen Actors Guild for “Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role.”
As if praise for her work in one film wasn’t enough, the fabulous Kate has garnered even more attention for her leading role in the screen adaptation of Bernhard Schlink’s The Reader. She’s already received an Oscar nomination for Best Actress, and the nods have only just begun. We’re sure Ms. Winslet is here to stay in the limelight.
As for this superstar’s style, we’re enamored. Kate is comfortable in her skin, and does not subscribe to the super-thin Hollywood way of life. We love her that way! Winslet was photographed while promoting The Reader at the Berlin Film Festival, looking chic and sophisticated in a navy and heather gray pantsuit. What we loved most of all about her ensemble was the delicate leaf pendant necklace she wore around her neck. She looked stunning, and instantly set the leaf trend in motion.
We have several items to match Kate’s style. First is the Zoe Chicco Gold Leaf Necklace, a simple yet beautiful angled leaf pendant made of solid 14K yellow gold. This stunning piece is versatile, and will complement any outfit wonderfully.

If it’s drama you’re after, Melinda Maria Etched Triple Leaf Earrings will indulge your every whim. Finally, the Carolina Rock Crystal Diamond Leaf Necklace is a perfect piece to follow this trend. The 14k gold and diamond-studded leaf pendant shines; and the necklace maintains an added mystical quality with the hanging clear crystal.
