Jessica Simpson Shows Off Weight Loss in Her Spring 2014 Ads
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Editorials, Fashion Designers,
No one is apparently looking more forward to swimsuit season than Jessica Simpson, who flaunts her dramatic post-baby body in a series of photos for her eponymous line's upcoming collection.
Photographed by Ellen Von Unwerth, the mother of two models a curve-hugging white swimsuit (seen to the right and after the jump) in a couple photos and some floral frocks in others (seen after the jump). "This swimsuit is feminine and a little retro in its detailing... It's very sexy, but it still leaves something to the imagination. And the shape is incredibly flattering," Simpson said.
Unwerth shot the images at a residence outside of Santa Barbara back in November.
Simpson, 33, explained the inspiration behind her Spring/Summer 2014 line: "This season we brought a feminine take to the current trend toward casual... For instance, pairing a loose-knit sweater or an oversize worn-in denim jacket over a dainty floral print romper, or adding a touch of a pastel rose print to the lapel of a moto jacket. You'll see a lot of floral throughout the line—perfect for spring."

Jessica Simpson’s Weight Watchers Future Uncertain
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, Rumors,
Jessica Simpson's deal with Weight Watchers is reportedly on shaky ground.
The Fashion Star mentor - who shed 70 pounds on the weight loss program after the birth of her first child Maxwell seven months ago with her fiance Eric Johnson - has reportedly angered executives for already getting pregnant again after they gave her $4 million to be the face of the company.
"They're furious at Jessica. She was already on thin ice with them since she didn't lose enough for the first ad, when they had to shoot from the waist up," a source said. According to the insider, the company don't think they can continue to run campaigns featuring Jessica because she is pregnant: "They don't think it can run. No one wants to hear about a pregnant woman dieting."
Jessica is yet to officially confirm she is pregnant, but is said to be thrilled to be expecting her second child so soon after the arrival of her daughter in May. Jessica has previously said of her daughter, "Motherhood is a dream, it really is absolutely amazing."

Jessica Simpson is hurt by cruel taunts about her weight.
The Fashion Star mentor has been paid four million dollars by Weight Watchers to lose the weight she put on after giving birth to her first child Maxwell in May and promote their brand and although she has dropped 40lbs in four months, her cruel detractors have hit out at her for not losing the remaining 40 already.
"For years, Jessica has been OK with her body and everyone loved her for that. But now she's not feeling the love and she doesn't like it. She's trying to conceal her hurt feelings with humor right now. She uses jokes and goofiness to hide the fact that she's really sensitive," a source said.
Jessica unveiled her weight loss on TV last week and pals say she worked incredibly hard since giving birth to lose the extra weight. "The past few weeks were really difficult because the pressure was enormous. She knew everyone would be judging her. She was proud of her progress so to face all these cruel taunts now, it stings," the source added to In Touch.

Jessica Simpson is struggling to lose her baby weight.
The 32-year-old singer gave birth to her daughter Maxwell Drew Johnson on May 1 and admitted she gorged on calorific treats during the pregnancy, which lead to her piling on the pounds.
"I let myself indulge in everything I wanted because it was the first time I was ever pregnant, and I wanted to enjoy it. I didn't know [the weight] didn't all come off with the baby," she told USA Today.
Jessica has embarked on an exercise regime, but the curvy star revealed her "boobs are way too big to run at this point." However, Jessica insisted she wants to show people that it's not easy to bounce back after having a baby and is determined to lose weight in a healthy way: "My body is not bouncing back like a supermodel. I'm just your everyday woman who is trying to feel good and be healthy for her daughter, her fiance and herself."

Jessica Simpson Hopes to Inspires Others
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities,
Jessica Simpson aims to inspire others through her dress sense.
The heavily pregnant reality TV star always considers others and how they would react when she chooses her clothes, rather than wearing then outfits for herself.
"I always wonder if what I'm wearing will be something that people would compliment, or want to wear. I don't ever get ready just for myself, ever. Every time I think I'm gonna be photographed, I wonder if somebody will see what I'm wearing, and if it'll help them put something together, maybe for school?"
The Dukes of Hazzard star has her own fashion line - which has made over $1 billion in sales - and feels it was a "natural transition" for her to go into design. She is also looking forward to imparting her knowledge as a mentor on new show Fashion Star, which starts this week in the US, and sees her appear alongside Nicole Richie and designer John Varvatos.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News,
Jessica and Ashlee Simpson launched their girls' clothing line this week.
The sisters - along with Jessica's fiance Eric Johnson and Ashlee's three-year-old son Bronx - mingled with the young guests at Dylan's Candy Bar as the T-shirts, shoes and jeans went on sale for the first time. Proceeds from the sale of a specially-designed T-shirt will go to Baby Buggy, a charity founded by Jessica Seinfeld, while there are plans for an online design contest for a t-shirt to be included in the forthcoming back-to-school collection.
"It's a combination of both of our styles. Ashlee is very rock 'n' roll, and I'm very American," pregnant Jessica said, describing the new range, which is released through the Jessica Simpson label.
Jessica also revealed she has signed a deal for a maternity line and will also design girls' footwear. She also admitted she may branch out further if she discovers she is expecting a son: "Boys' clothing is a possibility." As well as awaiting the birth of her baby, Jessica is currently working on her spring 2013 women's collection, which she joked is so far out "my baby will be one."

Pop stars-turned-designers
Jessica Simpson and Ashlee Simpson are teaming up for a new clothing line. The singing sisters are to collaborate on a line of tween apparel featuring sportswear, denim and activewear in their first fashion venture together, which will be part of the Jessica Simpson Collection.
"Creating a tween apparel collection was a natural extension for the brand. I'm excited to bring my sister, Ashlee, along as co-creative director of this division, because she brings a savvy rocker edge that defines today's tweens," said Jessica, whose fashion empire is set to be worth an estimated $1 billion this year.
Ashlee hopes her venture into fashion will be inspirational for young girls wanting to experiment with their personal style: "My goal as co-creative director will be to design clothes that will help inspire young girls to express their personalities and creativity through fashion."
Robert Verdi Wants to Style, Revamp Jessica Simpson
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers,
Robert Verdi wants to help Jessica Simpson revamp her look. The stylist to the stars says the singer-and-actress is quite "boring" with her fashion choices and wants to update her whole wardrobe.
"Her look is boring. I would change her up constantly because she is not diverse enough. I would give her a Hitchcock heroine look, a 50s look, and some serious 60s hippie look."
While he's not a fan of her look, Robert believes she has the cut right with her clothes: "Tight always looks better than loose when you are being photographed and when you are on television. You are on the side of tight no matter what."
Jessica Simpson - whose weight has fluctuated over the years - recently revealed how she loves clothes which give her a nipped-in waist and show off her womanly curves. "I'm a huge Jean Paul Gaultier fan. His pieces make my waist look good. Yes, they're an investment, but I'll have them when I'm old and grey."
Jessica Simpson Leaves Skinny Models Out of Fashion Show
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Fashion Shows, Health & Beauty, Models, Rumors,
Jessica Simpson is to use real women to model her fashion collection.
The curvy singer - who has faced criticism for her weight in the past - is reportedly set to turn her back on the trend of using skinny models in her New York Fashion Week show in September, and instead has decided to use real women to showcase her clothing collection.
“Jessica Simpson plans to unveil her latest collection for the media at New York Fashion Week in September, but there’s a twist. Instead of using super-skinny models to showcase her designs, Jessica has decided to send her best friends - real women in real sizes - down the aisle. This is the amount of the brand’s retail grand revenue, not what Jessica takes home. She attends all business meetings and makes all major decisions. She’s a sharp businesswoman and knows what women want,” a source said.
The 30-year-old blonde admitted her television show The Price of Beauty - which sees Jessica travel the globe to investigate some of the extreme lengths some women will go to in order to look good - has finally helped her accept to her body shape: “We all obsess over looking like the perfect Barbie type, and that’s not always what’s beautiful. It’s about making peace with yourself.”
