Jill Zarin Signs Jewelry Licensing Deal with GLITTERRINGS

NEW YORK, Jan. 9, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- If it's any indication of her longevity and tenacity, Jill Zarin's departure from The Real Housewives of New York has not slowed her down one bit. Adding to her budding fashion empire, the former reality star recently signed a deal to become GLITTERRINGS' first celebrity license with the launch of the Jill Zarin Jewelry Collection. GLITTERRINGS, helmed by co-Founders Karen Webster and Joyce Tsao, is known for their "Affordable Luxury" cocktail ring and jewelry collection.

The Jill Zarin Jewelry Collection will launch with a micro collection on February 1, 2012 just in time for Valentine's Day. The initial micro collection will feature bold designs that embrace the dynamic of Jill herself, and will be available at www.jillzarinjewelry.com retailing from $28 - $110. The full collection of fashion jewelry - rings, bracelets and necklaces will launch in department stores in fall 2012.

The inspiration behind the Jill Zarin Jewelry Collection came from her desire to have a line that was affordable and clearly represented her taste and style. "My jewelry and accessories have definitely been a topic of conversation over the years and I wanted to share some of my favorite pieces with everyone at affordable prices," said Jill. "I like my rings bold and colorful. They should be something someone notices and become a topic of conversation. Jewelry can often be a way for people to connect."

GLITTERRINGS is excited about this new chapter in the company. "I knew I wanted to go into business with Jill after our first encounter. Dana Hill, President of Divine Marketing Group, set up a meeting and proposed developing a jewelry collection for her after the great response we got when she wore one of our amazing Carolina Amato Collection necklaces on the RHNYC Reunion show. It was crystal clear to me that she was a bright star with a distinct fashion point of view and an amazing talent for accessorizing with jewelry, which when combined with her keen business instincts made the idea of creating a signature jewelry line for her, without question, a smart one," said Karen Webster, GLITTERRINGS President & co-Founder. "We are thrilled to be a part of the dynamic of the Jill Zarin brand, and are looking forward to building a successful business with her," said Joyce Tsao, GLITTERRINGS Owner & co-Founder.
