Good Charlotte
band members Joel and Benji Madden have teamed up with Macy’s American Rag to design a capsule collection… for women. Apparently, if you’re engaged to a stylish celebrity fashion designer like Nicole Richie, you automatically know how to dress a member of the opposite sex and get her to buy the clothes you “designed.”
“I don’t care how a girl dresses, nothing is sexier than a girl who is confident, feels good about herself, and does things her own way… I love it when a girl can take simple basic pieces and wear them with her own style,” Joel said.
The line, titled Mad Picks, features ripped denim and boho-inspired items (shocking) and is due in select Macy’s stores on August 25. Check out another image of Mad Picks after the jump.

Madonna Sued Over Material Girl Line
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News,
While Madonna may be the Material Girl, she may not be allowed to use the name for her clothing line.
The Queen of Pop - who worked on a range of clothes entitled Material Girl with her 13-year-old daughter Lourdes - is being sued by LA Triumph for using the same name as their clothing collection.
“Our client and its predecessor have been continually selling similar clothes in similar retail outlets at similar price points under the Material Girl brand since at least 1997 and Madonna and her new-found company do not have the right to trade in the same space under this brand,” lawyer Peter Afrasiabi told X17online.
Chris Arledge, an intellectual property lawyer, added, “As a result of their acts, our client faces a risk of being subsumed by Madonna’s profile, obvious worldwide notoriety and the massive spending campaign by Madonna, her company and retailers on her behalf.”

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.

Beyonce previously stated that the scent - a mix of magnolia, neroli and blush peach scents - and has received a lot of positive reaction.
“I’m so happy with it. I’ve been working on it for a while now. I was on tour for a year, and I have meet-and-greets with fans. I’ve never in my life gotten so many compliments,” she said. “They makers have tests, but that was my testing! The fans loved it.

Madonna May Design Line for Macy’s
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Women, Accessories, Footwear,
Could we soon see Madonna in a commercial with Martha Stewart and Jessica Simpson?
According to Women’s Wear Daily, the singer may become the latest celebrity connected to a product line sold at Macy’s. The 51-year-old is reportedly nearing a deal that would have her name linked to contemporary women’s collection.
Potential items sold would include accessories, clothing, intimates and shoes. Brand names in contention for the new lines include “Material Girl” (that seems too easy a choice to me) and “Truth or Dare” (for the lingerie department).
Three years ago, Madonna also launched “M by Madonna,” which sold in H&M stores.
