“I am a jeans lover,” says Big Bang Theory star Kaley Cuoco. “I literally live in them. So I wanted them to be as comfortable as they make me feel.” The actress searched high and low for her perfect pair, but was never able to find them. So when Raven Denim creative director Yael Torbati asked her to co-design a pair for the brand, she jumped at the chance.

Now available online, the “Kaley” skinny jeans ($193) come in dark olive or jet and feature zipper details. “It’s very clean and sexy, a perfect skinny to dress up or down,” Torbati says, adding that Cuoco was the perfect guest designer. “We selected [her] for her casual offbeat charm and cool, approachable style.”

For every pair of “Kaley” skinnies sold, Raven will donate 20 percent of proceeds to the Friends of Animal Foundation. “It wasn’t a tough choice,” Cuoco, an animal lover, says of selecting the charity. “We have to give a voice to the creatures that don’t have one.”

Let the search for Kaley Cuoco’s dream wedding dress begin!

The 25-year-old Big Bang Theory actress is engaged to addiction specialist Josh “Lazie” Resnik, her rep confirms to Us Weekly. The couple have yet to announce a wedding date.

Prior to her relationship with Resnik, Cuoco secretly dated her Big Bang Theory costar Johnny Galecki for two years.

“It was such a huge part of my life and no one knew about it,” Cuoco told CBS Watch Magazine of her undercover romance with Galecki, 36. “It was a wonderful relationship, but we never spoke a word about it and never went anywhere together.”
