Over the years, Priscilla Presley has worn many hats. She is well-known for her role as wife to rock and roll icon, Elvis Presley, mother to daughter, Lisa Marie Presley, and as an actress in three Naked Gun movies and on the television show, Dallas. But now, Ms. Presley is ready to put on a new hat: jewelry designer.

On Friday, March 18, Ms. Presley will launch the Priscilla Presley Jewelry Collection on QVC. Aimed at providing rock star glam at affordable prices, the jewelry line is uniquely inspired by pieces from Ms. Presley's personal jewelry collection. This collection will offer women affordable jewelry that looks expensive and is versatile enough to be worn to the office or to an upscale event.

Creating jewelry at an affordable price point was one of the challenges Ms. Presley faced when creating the line. At first, she thought about creating fine jewelry, but the sign of the current time is affordable fashion. She says that creating jewelry with the right weight and beauty that fit into the prices that consumers of QVC were use to was difficult. Despite the challenge, Ms. Presley succeeded.

Pieces in the collection include necklaces, earrings and rings priced at under $100. Signature pieces include a pair of earring with diamond teardrops hanging from diamond-encrusted Gothic crosses that resemble a pair of earrings she wore to a Graceland fundraiser, and a Byzantine-inspired cross pendant that reflects one of the many cross pendants that Elvis gave her as gifts over their years together.

When wearing jewelry, Ms. Presley says that she believes less is more. She says that there is an old rule that she follows that says you should wear no more than three pieces of jewelry at one time. For Ms. Presley, a couple statement pieces like a set of gorgeous earrings and a chunky ring on a finger is an appropriate way to accessorize.

Ms. Presley will launch her jewelry collection on QVC Friday, March 18, from 1-2 am. Pieces from the collection are currently available online for purchase at http://www.qvc.com.
