Janet Jackson to debut fashion line


This announcement comes in just a few weeks after we began hearing rumors that The Gloved One, Michael Jackson is working on a fashion line. Now, little sister Janet Jackson wants in on the money making biz too! She's going to be doing her own clothing line.

Dress like a Jonas Brother




When we were done watching Disney's Camp Rock (again!)* we couldn't help but think how totally awesome it would be if the Jonas Brothers had their own line of clothing. Then we read that The Sun had an interview with the band and that one of them, we think it was Curly, or maybe Moe, said that they were thinking about doing just that! This is where we type OMG! OMG! OMG! like over and over again.

We. Could. Just. Die. A freaking Jonas Brothers clothing line? Did we say OMG yet?

Okay, so maybe we're spreading it a bit thick. As far as teenage idols go they seem like a better option than most, and they do have a safe sense of style which we're sure parents appreciate. One thing is for sure, it could be worse.

Does this mean that Libby Lu will have to add a boy's section?

*Yes, we really watched it. It's no High School Musical, but it's cute.

Tip of the day: Tiered skirts

Zac Posen
Let's play a little game. When we say "tiered skirt", what's the first thing that comes to mind? Hippies? Flower power? Prairies? We're about to erase that perception from your mind. No, not by our mind boggling Tom Cruise like super powers (you wish!). It's far simpler than that. We're going to introduce you to the flirty skirts present at the Luella, Givenchy, and Zac Posen spring/summer 2008 runways.

Tip of the day: I want to be a stylist.


Who doesn't? Getting free material is the stuff. Going to fancy parties is where it's at. And being recognized for being able to pick clothing out of a closet, dab on lipstick or put hair into a ponytail? Wowza sign us up!

But getting to that higher level requires a little work and know how. Let's take a look at how to get yourself that stylin' position you've always wanted.

Barbie outfit designers make more than the real thing


Aside from being a blogger, what could be the coolest job in the world? Designing Barbie clothes, of course! Especially when you take into account that a Barbie clothing designer might make more than the average clothing designer in the real world.

Positively Organic is positive for kids




We've made no secret of our love for organic clothing. We also enjoy children and fluffy cute stuff. Positively Organic feels likewise and has created a line of clothing for children that is good for the Earth and frankly, cute as a button.

The company was created by a husband and wife team through a series of circumstance and life-altering experiences. It seems to be working out for them.

They run their company based on "the idea of doing well by doing good."

LL Cool J creates junior with Sears


When we think of Sears, electrical appliances and plasma screen TVs come to mind. True, we casually flip through the the company's mailer every Sunday. And yes, we can vaguely remember a pair of Arizona Jeans and black leather handbag being featured on a couple of the pages as "on sale."

But we never took that seriously. Just like Paris Hilton's acting career.

So this latest news from the Sears camp has us a bit puzzled:

Once organic, Twice Shy: T-shirts of the day


Whit Honea is a slacker, a borderline degenerate, and a daydream believer. He's also our resident expert on casual chic. If it's comfortable, and not heinous, he's all over it. He's quite charming, really.

Once bitten, Twice Shy, baby. We don't know what that has to do with the company or t-shirts, but we weren't going to be able to go any further in this post without throwing those lyrics out there. The song is just too damn catchy.

Twice Shy features "organic fashion for sinners everywhere." You know who you are. They also have a line, Fig, featuring organic styles for children. Kids, of course, are free of sin, ornery as they can be. They still need organic clothes though.

Will Hot Topic survive Perez Hilton?




Perez Hilton's new "fashion" line at Hot Topic is geared towards his demographic of readers, young, female and cheap. We think it is also safe to assume that they are easily persuaded to buy crap.

In a video interview and vanity session Perez the pot insults the kettle that is pseudo-celebrity. He basically calls out Heidi Montag and Lauren Conrad and claims that his brand smells better. We think they all stink about the same.

Tip of the day: Concert gear & supplies


Please don't stop the music!We had a great weekend. We danced our butts off, sang our hearts out and probably had one too many beers at the Glow in the Dark tour in illy Philly on Saturday night. But as always, we were thinking of our dear reader's and before we went in to enjoy the likes of Rihanna, Lupe Fiasco (heart!), N.E.R.D. and the brilliant Kayne, we took a tour of tailgate heaven to see what's hot and what's not for concert gear this year.

Here is a breakdown of the ideal concert attire:

Get dressed on Stone Island


Stone Island has released their Spring/Summer '08 line for men, and within it is something for everyone. The apparel and accessories are modern enough to be fashion forward but classic enough that they won't go out of style any time soon, which is good because what they offer isn't cheap.

However, unlike some companies, you do appear to get what you pay for when you shop Stone Island. According to the website:

...the aim of Stone Island has been to design innovative top line collections in the sportswear panorama, with a high concern in function and use of the garments.

Heidi Montag's line outsells Posh's line


This is a war of the divas. What, wait? Heidi Montag isn't a diva. She might wish she were, but in spite of Spencer's whining, she's not there yet. Now, Posh, on the other hand is a diva in every sense of the word. But no matter what we classify them as, they both have clothing lines and they're duking it out.

Wet Seal shows love for Mother Earth


This might be the clearest case of "green washing," we've ever seen. Wet Seal has a line of eco-fashion, that's not actually made with any organic or sustainable materials.

Ask StyleDash: Clothes for grandmas and more

Dear StyleDash,

I'm 77 years young and having trouble finding fashionable clothes. I dress casually and cannot wear the tees and blouses because I have the roll around the middle. I can wear a size 10 in pants as long as the waist is elastic, but tops show my roll so I tend to buy XL, which don't really fit. Where can I find nice-looking clothes that aren't old and dowdy? I hate shopping because I cannot find anything that makes me feel good.

Gwen's Harajuku Lovers perfume


In the past, Gwen Stefani has credited the very hip Harajuku district in Tokyo, Japan as the inspiration behind her clothing line and two solo albums.

Well, the avant-garde street culture has penetrated the singer's new fragrance line aptly named Harajuku Lovers that is set to drop this September.

The line consists of five scents: The first four are named after Gwen's back-up dancers -- Love, Angel, Music, and Baby -- while the fifth scent "G" represents the leader of this frighteningly cool group.
