Nicole Richie: ‘I Don’t Give Fashion Advice to Joel’
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities,
Nicole Richie has no control over what her husband and son wear. The Fashion Star mentor has her own fashion line but admitted her husband Joel Madden never asks her for clothing advice and their three-year-old son Sparrow also has his own ideas on what to wear.
Speaking on Live With Kelly and Michael, she said, "I do not dress Joel. Joel dresses himself. And he dresses Sparrow. Sparrow's actually dressing himself now but he's very particular. So he needs the bandana tied around the belt, you know how Joel does it... he has to have all of his sleeves cut off of his shirts. He's got a little curly mohawk now!"
Nicole previously admitted she takes style tips from Sparrow and her four-year-old daughter Harlow as they like to give her brutally honest feedback on her outfits. "I was wearing these polka-dot harem pants the other day and my daughter said to me, 'Mom, why are you wearing your pajamas out?' I was like, oh boy, already getting an opinion. My son always comes up to me and gives me a hug if he thinks I look pretty. Their biggest compliment to me if I'm wearing anything with sequins on it, they tell me that I look like a princess," she explained.

Adam Levine to Launch His Own Fragrance
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, News,
Musician-turned-reality star Adam Levine is going against what he previously condemned on Twitter: creating his own fragrance.
“I also would like to put an official ban on celebrity fragrances. Punishable by death from this point forward," he wrote on Twitter back in 2011. While he is unlikely to kill himself over his own ban, it would be nice if there were fewer celebrity fragrances!
The Maroon 5 frontman's eponymous fragrance line will include both men's and women's products with prices ranging between $35 and $65.
And what is the source of his inspiration? “I wanted to do something understated and elegant — something that people I revere in that world, like Tom Ford, would do, and something I’d be attracted to," Levine said.

There's a lmit to when it comes to being fashion forward. Kanye West is clearly not aware of such a limit.
The fashion-conscious rapper performed at the 12.12.12 Hurricane Sandy benefit concert in a Givenchy leather kilt and pants getup paired with what looks like a... printed sweatshirt? So is Kanye's black-on-black attire too much style for the general public to handle, or is it just an outright fashion disaster?

Beth Ditto Wants Her Own Fashion Line
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers,
Beth Ditto wants her own clothing range. The Gossip singer - who is famed for her plus-sized figure - created a fashion line for British high street store Evans in 2007 but says she would like to design a collection on her terms.
"I wish that there was more control in that line, but there wasn't. It was really fun, but the things that I really wanted couldn't be turned around in time. It was made in India, which caused a lot of conflict for me. I really want to do my own line that's ethically made, and I can do whatever the f**k I want with it. I also want to start an online vintage store, kind of like Re/Dress [Brooklyn's now-closed plus-size boutique]. I want to do a buy-the-outfit function, and I want to show how outfits look on all kinds of different body types, even boys and butches."
Beth also spoke about Karl Lagerfeld's recent comments about Adele, in which he claimed the singer was "a little too fat."
"First of all, Karl Lagerfeld is not even sane. Second of all, he's not the end-all, be-all of what he does. He's really talented, but that doesn't mean he's right. Third, Karl Lagerfeld used to be this really fat, eccentric dude. He always had that fat kid fan with him too. To me, only a person who was fat could get away with saying something like that," she said.
‘Cross Dresser’ Florence Welch
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities,
Florence Welch was "a cross dresser" at the start of her career.
The Florence + the Machine singer used to wear all her male bandmates' clothes when they were first out on the road together, but insists it was only because she was too lazy to find female garments to wear.
"I was like a cross-dresser but really it was just out of laziness. At times I looked like a cross between Annie Hall and [TV presenter] Bruce Forsyth. I went through a period of a couple of years when I'd wear just anything. I was on the road with boys in the band and I'd just wear all their clothes. I'd grab a pair of their trousers and throw one of their shirts on. It never incurred to me it was odd or I may have looked strange. I was getting around on a bike and it was just easy," she told The Sun.
When her career took off, Florence then started spending her pay checks on vintage clothes and establishing her current unique style.

Adam Levine ‘Cringed’ at Fragrance Offer
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty,
Adam Levine ''cringed'' when he was offered the chance to release a fragrance.
The 33-year-old Maroon 5 singer - who has previously expressed his distaste for celebrity scents - admits he wasn't keen until curiosity got the better of him.
"I'm not going to lie, I cringed the first time I heard. But at the end of the day, I thought that it was a cop-out to say, 'Oh, that's lame. I don't want to do that.' I love fashion; there are a lot of things I'd like to express creatively in the world. I like to think that I have decent taste, so why not try it and do a good version?"
But he insisted on remaining in control of the 222 perfumes throughout the design stages: "I've seen cool, sexy, inspiring things in fragrances. If I'm emulating those things, then I love it. If I'm not putting any effort into it, if I'm cashing in and just letting it go and having nothing to do with the creative process, I'm not interested."

Avril Lavigne to Show at NYFW
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Fashion Shows, News,
Avril Lavigne is to show at New York Fashion Week. The "Girlfriend" singer will showcase the latest collection for her Abbey Dawn clothing range at the prestigious event next month.
According to a press release, the event - which will take place on September 12 at the city's Style 360-Metropolitan Pavilion - will be "a high-energy runway fashion show." The ladies' line will include dresses, denim, skirts, footwear, handbags, wallets, purses and eyewear.
Earlier this year, Avril said her fashion tastes have grown more sophisticated over time. The "What The Hell" hitmaker used to be famed for her rock chick look, but has now started to wear dresses and heels as her style has matured over the years.
"When I was younger, I dressed skater and had that whole thing going on. But as I grew up, I eventually started wearing heels and dresses. Over time, fashion choices change. Now that I'm older and have a fashion line, I'm more into fashion. I like to dress with rock 'n' roll elements and be casual. I like jeans with rips and skulls, but now I wear more flattering pieces. I would never have worn heels or tight trousers before, or dresses. Today, though, I enjoy it. I've grown up."
