AKRON, Ohio, Aug. 15, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Recognized as
one of Hollywood's most beautiful
and beloved stars and admired for her sense of style both on and
off the red carpet, Sofia Vergara has partnered with Kay® Jewelers,
the number one jewelry store in America, to launch her jewelry
collection, SOFIA VERGARA so
Sofia™. Aptly named, the fashionable yet elegant collection
embodies Sofia's playful, vibrant
and sexy style with bold statement necklaces and earrings as well
as shimmering bracelets. The SOFIA
VERGARA so Sofia™ collection is available exclusively at select
Kay® Jewelers stores and online at kay.com.
"I've loved jewelry since the day I was born," said Sofia. "I don't feel dressed without it - I
never even go to sleep without jewelry on. It's how I express
myself — my style, attitude and the way I feel. My new
jewelry collection, SOFIA VERGARA
so Sofia™, developed in partnership with Kay® Jewelers, reflects my
love of jewelry and sense of style, and I hope it inspires women to
express themselves with their own unique look that says, 'This is
so me!'"
The collection includes rings, necklaces, earrings and bangle
bracelets to complement every style, many set with diamonds and
semi-precious gemstones, including amethyst, tanzanite and topaz.
The 10K gold and sterling silver settings feature intricate details
that add a feminine touch. Each piece also includes a hidden
natural emerald to symbolize Sofia's beautiful home of Colombia. In keeping with Sofia's view of jewelry as a means of self
expression, the collection is designed to be perfect for a day at
the office or a night on the town.
"Kay Jewelers is the perfect partner for Sofia and her fine jewelry collection," says
Luis Balaguer, CEO of Latin World
Entertainment. "It offers women beautiful jewelry, outstanding
quality and true value…all key elements of the Sofia Vergara
lifestyle brand."
Ed Hrabak, President, Kay®
Jewelers, said: "We always seek to provide our customers with the
most innovative and exciting brands in the industry and we are
thrilled to be launching this collection with Sofia." Hrabak continued, "SOFIA VERGARA so Sofia™ is a vibrant, bold and
stylish collection that celebrates an authentic passion for self
expression — reflecting what a beautiful piece of jewelry should
offer."
Sofia was named one of the most
talented and powerful women in Hispanic entertainment by The
Hollywood Reporter and Billboard Magazine. She is also the only
Hispanic actress to begin her career in the U.S. Hispanic market
and cross over to the general market, in which she gained and
continues to maintain great popularity and influence, holding key
positions on Forbes' Power Women and Celebrity 100 lists.
She can currently be seen each week in her leading role as
"Gloria" in ABC's Emmy-award winning series "Modern Family," for
which she has been a four-time Golden Globe, Primetime Emmy and
Screen Actors Guild Awards nominee. Sofia has also appeared in a number of feature
films, including the recent "Fading Gigolo" and "Chef," with
Scarlett Johansson and Robert Downey Jr., and is co-starring with
Reese Witherspoon in a comedy due
next spring.
