It’s no secret that Paris Hilton’s new shoe collection is gooey, pink, and begging for a small dog to chew it up (and thanks to Perez for the preview). What’s more surprising (or maybe not) are its origins: Paris’ dainty little sandal is a pretty exact co
LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - The CW has green-lighted an untitled fashion-magazine reality series from Tyra Banks and Ken Mok, the duo behind the network’s No. 1 show, “America’s Next Top Model.”

Roland Mouret - Ready to Wear Fall 2008 - 2009
I wasn’t all that in love with the spring 2008 collection for RM by Roland Mouret, but he has turned me around for fall 2008. Style.com says it’s a pre-fall collection and the fashion spot says it’s Fall 2008, i’m going with the fashion spot.

I want to tell you about a club I’ve heard of. It’s secret, highly exclusive. There are no written rules to decide if you can or can’t join. There’s no official committee to vote you in. This club has got only about 200 members in the entire world, all women. What they have in common is the desire and the means to acquire the most expensive clothes that money can buy.
