Can Celebrities Really Design?

Well this has been quite a week for designers, fashionistas, and hip hop enthusiasts. Should I or shouldn't I, I think I shall... It is official, the new Mr and Mrs have made the leap into married bliss. I'm speaking of the infamous Jay and Beyonce. Doesn't their marital union remind you of crowning the king and queen at the prom? It's like we just saw (well not actually since it was a private ceremony but...) the two of them get crowned and take their first dance.

At any rate, it's nice to see a new "power couple" . It gives you something to aspire to, because let's face it, everyone gets their reign and then the next new hot couple comes along. Anyone remember Babyface and Tracey Edmonds, or the recent demise of Kimora and Russ? Congratulations to the new couple. May you have a long and prosperous reign in and out of the paparazzi eyes.

On a small related note... What do you all think about House of Dereon? I myself have been getting mixed reviews. check it out here www.dereon.com I will tell you that I am still looking for that perfect pair of jeans that make all my curves look good in all the right places ;) You know what I'm sayin'.

As far as the British "queen of fashion" goes aka Victoria Beckham isn't doing so hot with her new denim line dvb. Apparently the jeans will be pulled from the shelves, so if you want a pair, you're going to have to go to Britain yourself. Oh well, sorry Posh. Maybe next time. At least you still have your perfume.



I have saved the best for last. British based designer, Chloe Lonsdale has revamped the Made In Heaven denim line, made popular in the 70's by Farrah Fawcett and Twiggy. Her father Tony Lonsdale was the first Brit to bring denim to England, and was a leader in selling Made In Heaven at his extremely popular stores, Jean Machine. Now called MiH Jeans, Chloe has maintained the essence of the 70's while designing for the modern woman. The line has something for everyone... Skinny, high-waisted, wide leg, and the classic bell bottom. There may be hope for me yet.
