interested in owning (from leo maybe??).  
Of course some of the $ will be donated to
The sale will be held in NYC on Oct 15.

Elizabeth and James = our favorite twins

We have blogged about there personal style,  there jewelry line and  The Row (ready to wear),  now the girls are adding shoes to the mix.  Why not...(heres the complete story from wwd)
 Dualstar Entertainment Group, their management firm, has signed Steven Madden Ltd. to create a collection of footwear under the Elizabeth and James brand. The collection is scheduled to hit high-end specialty retailers in mid-2009. The sisters will head the design of the footwear collection as creative directors while Madden plans to hire a dedicated designer and sales team to sell the line. The new Elizabeth and James footwear is meant to complement Mary-Kate and Ashley’s Elizabeth and James contemporary sportswear collection, which is sold in more than 300 doors globally including Intermix and Saks Fifth Avenue. They also signed a deal with Robert Lee Morris for a line of fashion jewelry under the Elizabeth and James brand, which hit stores this fall. In addition to Elizabeth and James, the sisters have a significant merchandising and branding business that, in the past, has been estimated at about $1 billion. They’ve made a significant dent in the industry over the past 17 years — having gone from selling DVDs at Wal-Mart to $600 skirts at Barneys New York from their high-end ready-to-wear label, The Row.

American Airline + GOGO

Trying to get past the fact that they charge for all checked bags, I was pleasantly  surprised to meet GOGO at my gate.  AA is now offering inflight internet.  For a fee of course (12.95) but this one I'm happy to pay!  
GOGO

Fields at HSN...

Everyone is doing it!
Selling on the home shopping networks has become big business  and major fashion heavy weights are taking notice!
Next to jump on is Patricia Feilds!
Tune in on Sept 23-27 for her debut...
Can't wait to watch her talk to callers.

DISTILL...

Since we haven’t actually seen the new magazine DISTILL, we can’t comment on it....but we aren’t sure if the concept works.  
Distill is billed as “the best of the international fashion & style press” 
& is a bi-monthly collection of work from other magazines.
The magazine is divided into sections such as womanwear, menwear 
& various fashion stories are re-printed in full as they 
appeared in their original magazines including shoots from
 V, Numero & Acne Paper.

TOPSHOP

Topshop will launch their e-commerce site on September 9th!  Finally.  Also on the 9th.....Kate moss’s next collection.  The first 2000 shoppers who spend more than $50 will receive a free Kate Moss charity t-shirt.  That shouldn’t be too hard.
