+ Although Kanye West has campaigned for his fiancee Kim Kardashian to grace the coveted cover of Vogue, it looks like her half-sister Kendall Jenner might beat her to it, as she was seen next to Anna Wintour at the Topshop show for London Fashion Week.

+ Fashion designer Tom Ford expresses his bromance for Jay-Z with his latest collection, displaying his knock-off dress version of the rapper's own Tom Ford knock-off jersey.

+ Mulberry launched some photos of Cara Delevingne modeling their latest handbag collection, which also happens to be one that was made in collaboration with her!

+ She might not be on PETA's go-to list for "I'd Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur" models anymore, but Khloe Kardashian made it clear in New York yesterday that she's still not wearing animal pelts, wearing a faux fur coat with the words "F**k Yo Fur" in red paint on the back.

Ashley Greene: I’m Not a Fashion Icon

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers,

Ashley Greene doesn't consider herself to be a style icon. The 25-year-old Twilight actress - who is the face of DKNY and DKNY Jeans - admits she grew up in shorts and flip flops and doesn't see herself as much of a fashion guru.

"It's certainly something that I've read and people have voiced that they do consider me one of their fashion icons, and it's really flattering and I'm really thankful for it. But it's always interesting to me - growing up in Jacksonville, Florida, I never considered myself a fashion icon at all, or anything even close," she said.

But since hitting the big time, Ashley has been able to trade her beach wear for designer gowns and expensive jewelry - a luxury she fully appreciates: "It's really fun for me to be able to be exposed to the red carpet and the dresses and the clothing, and working with Donna [Karan], because it's broadened my horizons. And now other people are responding to the things I'm wearing, so it's fun for me, too."

Lara Stone is the new face of Donna Karan. The Dutch supermodel has already appeared in adverts for Prada's Infusion d'Iris fragrance scent, Louis Vuitton, Jaeger and Eres and she now fronts the campaign for the designer's DKNY Delicious Fragrance, the new apple inspired scent.

 "Lara certainly is the model of the moment and designers all over the world are desperate for her to be the face of their products."

It seems Lara is definitely in demand at the moment as she was recently named as the new face of Calvin Klein. The blonde beauty signed an exclusive deal with the fashion house to front its campaigns for Calvin Klein Jeans, Calvin Klein Collection and ck Calvin Klein.

"I have a long history with the Calvin Klein brand, and so it was wonderful to work with the house again this year. It's like being part of a family."

The deal marks the first time in years Calvin Klein have used one model to front all three of its brands and the firm's creative director, Francisco Costa, thinks Lara's perfect for the role: "I conceived my Fall/Winter 2010 collection with a self-aware and assured woman in mind. For me, Lara was the perfect choice for the new campaign."

No Fashion Regrets for Eva Green

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News,

Not that she’s been much of a fashion police target, Eva Green never regrets an outfit.

The Casino Royale actress - who is known for her sexy dress sense - doesn’t believe in worrying about clothes she has previously worn as “it’s simply not worth it.” Discussing her wardrobe and style, Eva said, “I never regret anything I wear - it’s simply not worth it. When I don’t know what to wear, I put on skinny black jeans and an oversized cashmere jumper - preferably from Donna Karen. If I can face it, I’ll put on heels.”

While she loves clothes, her favorite it is a black leather Dior bag and never leaves home without it. She added, “It has my initials on it which makes it extra special. I take it everywhere; it’s my Mary Poppins bag.”

The 29-year-old beauty also revealed Marlene Dietrich is her style icon: “She was so feminine but at the same time, still strong. I’m crazy about that everyday 30s look. I loved all the costumes in my new film Cracks. I wore beautiful high-waisted trouser suits, headscarves and gorgeous printed silks. The costume designer Alison Byrne is a genius.”
