Lily Allen for Chanel Handbag Ad Campaign [First Look]

Back in March, news was first reported that Karl Lagerfeld has chosen Lily Allen to be the new face of Chanel.

Beyoncé to Launch Sasha Fierce for Deréon Collection

According to WWD, Beyoncé and her momager/stylist Tina Knowles is slated to launch a new junior apparel label, Sasha Fierce for Deréon, for back-to-school selling, named after Beyoncé’s alter ego and third solo album, “I Am…Sasha Fierce”. The collection consists of a full range of sportswear, outerwear, handbags, footwear, eyewear, lingerie and jewelry, the “over the top” jewelry, shoes and eyewear feature “large chains made in mixed metals such as silver with gold, heavily studded shoes and oversize sunglasses such as the ones Beyoncé has been seen wearing on tour.” You can expect apparel like “a one-shoulder dress, black bodysuit, fake leather jacket with oversize collar, leggings and destructed jeans with mesh and lace details lining the ripped material.” Come September, the collection will be available at retailers like Macy’s, Dillard’s and specialty stores Jimmy Jazz and Against All Odds.

The collection, Tina said, is “edgier and trendier and reflects Sasha Fierce’s daring and outgoing attitude. Beyoncé, who said in a statement “the line really exudes a different side of my personality, which I am grateful that I can express,” had a lot of say in the creation of the collection, Tina said.

Madonna for Louis Vuitton Fall 2009 Ad Campaign [More Pics]

Madonna for Louis Vuitton Fall 2009 Ad Campaign [More Pics]

Last week the first image of the Louis Vuitton Fall 2009 ad campaign featuring Madonna…again has leaked, today Absolument Madonna has more super photoshopped images from the campaign. If you thought the first image was photoshopped, that was nothing compared to these featured here. Looks like all the images feature Madonna’s Met Gala look but in different colors, all the images prominently feature the “bunny ears” and a handbag. I do love the bunny ears though! For some reason I kinda like the treatment of the images, what’s your thoughts?

Totally forgot to post thes pieces that I copped from H&M after I went to the Gap Design Editions Khakis Collection In-Store Event. Had to stop in H&M since it was a couple of stores down from GAP, picked up a couple of things including a leather zipper bag, faux leather motorcycle vest, white denim shorts and another cheapy striped tunic which I also have in white/black. Didn’t have time to shoot more pics, but more to come soon…
