“Even Justine Mills, owner of Cricket, the Liverpool boutique beloved of the city’s football Wags, who once said she would not stock Dior because she imagined the people who bought it were ‘Russian prostitutes”, has had a change of heart. “Dior has changed its direction for the better,” she said. “It is much more understated and about luxury and quality.’”

Although we’ve never been a fan of the totes and t-shirts that bare their likeness, the Harajuku girls have had our Gwen Stefani-loving hearts since What you waiting for?.
So, we won’t fault any grown ass man or woman planning to lose their mind when they see the girls in person next month.
Starting April 12, the Harajuku girls will begin a tour in support of Gwen’s over-priced line L.A.M.B. The funky foursome — Love, Angel, Music, and Baby — will be stopping by all of the Macy’s stores in California, meeting fans and inspiring outrageous outfits along the way.
The tour will end on April 26.
After the jump, a little Harjuku and Gwen for all of the non-Cali residents
Love or hate her, Agyness Deyn has the fashion industry and Perez Hilton wrapped around her little purple Mulberry tote.
In fact, ID magazine has created six different magazine covers for their May issue dedicated solely to the Manchester supermodel. In one of them, she is topless and in another she is donning finger paint and a big smile on her face — all six covers boldly stating “iconic” just below her face.
Really? Iconic? Hmm…maybe that Topshop collection wasn’t so far fetched after all.
Prada’s employee rules:”Desk and work surfaces should be clean and uncluttered. Pictures, calendars, etc. should not be taped to cubicle/office walls. Pets may not be brought to the corporate office or the store. For corporate employees, all coats should be hung in the appropriate coatroom and not kept in offices or hung over cubicle walls. Window shades should be even (either completely up or completely down) throughout one side of the floor. Items may not be placed on the window sills … In addition, it is important to take a break from your workday and enjoy your lunch. Therefore, absent extenuating circumstances, lunch may not be eaten at your desk.” So, the devil does wear Prada? [NY Post]
Yes, it’s true. We kind of like the Cory Kennedy obssesed fashion glossy. Plus, the Puma giveaway their currently running doesn’t hurt. [Nylon]
Say it ain’t so! Is Rimmel giving longtime spokesmodel Kate Moss the boot? [Sassybella]
Jo Wood on her new organic body care line: “I’m on a mission to turn every woman in the country organic.” Eh, we’re going to have to take a pass. [ElleUK]
The UK retailer wants to give you all brownie points for being one of the few brave souls who actually went to purchase pieces from Kate Moss’s new spring collection. Oh, we kid…
Seriously, though. Starting next month, Topshop will be rewarding customers with “loyalty points” each time they use the brand’s in-store Style Advisor — which is personal shopping service that helps customers navigate through all of the pretty vintage Herve Leger dresses, amongst other things.
The points earned for shopping the store will be exchanged into tokens twice a year to spend in-store.
In case you haven’t heard, Traver Rains and Richie Rich — the badass duo behind Heatherette — just released a limited-edition beauty line with MAC cosmetics.
Staying true to the brands playfully girly aesthetic, the collection comes in pink day-glo packaging and boasts fake eye lashes, lots og glitter, eyeshadow trio’s, and lipglass as well as lipstick that come in practically ever shade of pink imaginably.
Much like the Fafi line with MAC last month, everything from the Heatherette camp has practically sold-out everywhere. But unlike Fafi, the club kids didn’t make a promo video for their new beauty products. Or at least that’s what we thought.
Styleitonline has found the promo starring muse Amanda Lepore on Youtube and it’s very, very strange to say the least.
The mini movie opens with a nude Lepore smoking a cigarette before sitting down at her vanity table to apply a bubble gum pink shade of Heatherette’s new lipstick — which evetually ends up covering her whole body.
….And we’ll let you discover the rest of the video on your own.
