Taylor Momsen is Madonna’s ‘Material Girl’

We told you about Madonna’s new clothing line dubbed ‘Material Girl’ hitting Macy’s shelves, and Signature9 UK filled you in on all of the campaign details. The juniors line targets feminine-but-edgy girls with a distinct punk rock style .

The face of the brand has remained hush hush until now. All we knew was that a young Hollywood starlet, who lives and breathes the essence of edgy was in Madonna’s sights. The ads are finished and courtesy of Macy’s it’s confirmed that Gossip Girl star Taylor Momsen is the face of the ‘Material Girl’ ad campaign.

Lauren Conrad will be releasing her latest book, a style guide entitled Lauren Conrad Style on October 5, 2010, concurrently with her third novel, Sugar and Spice. This won’t be the reality television star’s first foray into the authoring world.

And though it’s easy to look at Conrad as another person who’s just famous for being famous, she does seem to be putting real effort into her endeavors. But a look at the bigger picture suggests all is not as rosy as her bank account would suggest.

Something To Sink Your Teeth Into

Animal prints have always come in and out of vogue, but this season we pass on the typical leopard and cheetah and slip into something a little sexier: snakeskin. But don’t worry, this modern take on snake is not as tacky as we’re used to, as long as you shop smart.  We recommend sticking to [...]

First Lady Of Style

First Lady Of Style

It’s not hard to understand why First Lady Michelle Obama is frequently compared to likewise sartorially-savvy former FL Jackie Kennedy Onassis.
