We're Watching: The First Wives Club
Posted by Hayley French on
The First Wives Club (1996) teams up Bette Midler, Diane Keaton, and Goldie Hawn as a trio of recently reunited and divorced friends whose husbands had each left them for younger women. Scorned, this cast of hilarious characters exact revenge on their ex-husbands by digging up dirt through some good old fashion stalking. And, OK, you caught us- there is a young Sarah Jessica Parker playing the role of one of the husband’s mistresses. That is not the reason we’re recommending this movie though- we’re not that obsessed, we swear!
Goldie Hawn’s character, Elise Elliot, is a ditsy bombshell actress who would just love to be decked out in gold and diamonds on a regular basis. We can think of a beautiful thing or two that Elise would enjoy.
ELISE WOULD LOVE:
> Spike Diamond Ball Studs by Anita Ko, $6,500
> Single Round Bracelet with Royal Blue Moonstone and Diamonds by Temple St Clair, $7,950
> St. Paolo Classic Ring with Pink Tourmaline and Tanzanite, $6,250
