Madonna’s Daughter Blogs for Material Girl Line
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News,
Style runs in the family! Madonna‘s daughter has started her own fashion blog.
Lourdes, 13, helped her superstar mother create her new clothing line, The Material Girl Collection, and now she has taken to the internet to promote the line and says the clothes will reflect some of her personal taste.
“Helluuur thurrrr, I’m Lola and this is my first blog entry so it’s kind of like ummmm.. I’m just going to use this blog entry to tell y’all a little bit about myself. I am totally obsessive about 80’s shorts. You know the kind that makes your butt look kinda big, with a grunge-looking shirt tucked in. It’s kinda nerdy but I love it. And the 80’s are another huge obsession of mine, which is totally amazingly awesome because Material Girl. HELLO! It’s like 80’s themed, which pretty much rocks, so yeah (sic).”
Madonna has previously said their clothing range has been inspired by Lourdes’ likes and dislikes: “It is absolutely an extension of her taste. We like to combine a plaid or a flannel with a lace or leather with lace or rhinestones. So we mix and match textures and fabrics and elements that are both masculine and feminine.”
The collection - which will be launched in August - are for department store Macy’s and start from $12.

Fashion Police: Rainbow Happy Paris Hilton
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Editorials, News,
It’s one thing to embrace color in the summer months. It’s a whole other thing when you slightly resemble a bizarro, boho clown like Paris Hilton.
While her headpiece and necklace can be put to better use, her rainbow-striped dress looks like remnants of a child’s bed sheets. She used to walk runways and has a fortune that could easily buy her a good stylist (or at least a friend who should have honestly told her not to walk out in public like this)—there’s simply no excuse for this.

Britney Spears Talks Candie’s Clothing Line
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News,
Britney Spears only wanted to design clothes she would wear herself.
The “3” singer, who has launched her first fashion line for Candie’s which will be sold Kohl’s department stores, says the outfits she created all reflect her personality and know they are something her fans would be eager to buy.
“I wanted to design clothes that I would wear and my fans would wear. That was the most important thing to me. I wanted to make both daytime casual looks and fun dresses to go out in at night. I met with the design team for Candie’s and Kohl’s, and we started making sketches and designed a line. I got to approve every single piece in the line. It was really a lot of fun. This collection really represents my personal style. I took pieces from my Circus tour and pieces that I wear every day. I love denim, so I made sure to include a lot of jeans. I can’t wait for it to come out.”
As well as jeans, the range feature leggings, skirts and oversized, slouchy tops. Britney says she had such fun creating the collection, she is keen to do another one in the near future: “I had such a blast designing this line and would love to do it again.”
Style Advisor Agyness Deyn
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Health & Beauty, Models, News, Site Announcements,
Moving from the catwalk to behind-the-scenes, Agyness Deyn is become a style advisor.
The supermodel has teamed up with journalist Fiona Byrne to create website naag.com, which will give fashion tips and their take on the latest trends.
“We’re not shoving anything down your throat. We’re just saying ‘This is rad.’ We’re not saying ‘You have to like this,’” Deyn said.
The website has already had some big coups, with profiles of Mark Ronson and Juliette Lewis, who are both friendly with the 25-year-old beauty. “I think because we’re friends, they trust us and like what we’re doing,” Deyn said of their involvement.
However, their dream interview would be with designer Alexander Wang: “He’s one of the most real people in fashion. Totally unpretentious and fun.” Although she will be giving out advice, last year Agyness revealed she isn’t a huge fashion fan and won’t pursue a catwalk career forever.
“You know, even though I’m in fashion, I don’t, like, do fashion. Fashion isn’t me, even though I work in it. It’s just materialistic stuff. I just want to do whatever makes me happy.”

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Editorials, News,
Judging by the Spring/Summer 2010 runways, clear heels are certainly trending right now; however, Gossip Girl star Taylor Momsen took it down to a whole level of trashy.
Performing with her band The Pretty Reckless, 16 year-old Momsen gives Miley Cyrus a run for her money in a skin-tight, short corset held down by some very adult garters. Despite her lingerie-heavy outfit, her clear platforms recently attracted quite a bit of attention, considering it has a slot for tips.
Tacky or a stylish sense of humor?

Kardashians Launch Tanning Product
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, News,
The Kardashian sisters believe that they have created the “perfect” fake tan.
The trio of siblings - Kim, Kourtney and Khloe - have launched the Kardashian Glamour Tan gel and Kim is extremely pleased with the results.
“My sisters and I are all about getting the perfect tan without harming our skin. We’re always on the look-out for the best self-tanner so we thought we’d create the perfect formula and share it with everyone,” Kim said.
The non-streaking, non-staining product includes protective antioxidants, and vitamins C, E & D to keep skin healthy and moisturized. It also claims to be the only self-tanner available containing Imudulin, which is a “key ingredient responsible for stimulating vitamin D synthesis which can aid in lessening the look of lines and wrinkles.”
As well as their own self-tanner, the sisters also have their own range of swimwear and jewelry collection, which they recently revealed was inspired by their heritage.
