Jessica Simpson seems to be enjoying designing a lot. She already has her own lines of clothing, shoes, handbags and accessories. And now we are happ to tell you she has launched a range of luggage, travel bags and business cases.
The new collection is made of leather, canvas and nylon and comes in a variety of styles. To create the line Jessica teamed up with Olivet, a company that has been a leader in the cut and sew bag business for 30 years.
Items are available at the singer’s official website. The price ranges between $90-$170.
And even this isn’t enough for the star. She is planning to design a range of watches and Jessica Simpson bedding.

It is a well-known fact that a bag can say a lot about its owner. Practical girls prefer roomy bags so that everything they need can be held inside. Fashionistas like glamorous clutches and those women who admire clasic opt for famous but really expensive Birkin bags or Kelly bags.
However, there are those of us who are rebels by nature and deny everything that is common and appropriate. For such girls designer James Piatt creates his exclusive pieces. These aren’t ordinary at all.
The photos might seem too aggressive but what I like a lot about them is that they aren’t cute or traditional. A great contrast to what we are used to see.

Nearly all women have a weakness for bags. We have lots of them in our wardrobe. We often buy a bag that can match one outfit only but if it looks chic that’s all we are interested in.
Handbags that Derek Lam offers us for Spring-Summer 2010 season are just of this kind. Some come in a traditinal style and will become wardrobe staples but most of them are pretty but very unpractical from the point of compatibility with clothing.
Tell me what you think about the range.

Each brand has its own signature style that distinguishes it from others. We will always recognize Chanel sumptuous designs, elaborate silhouettes of Ann Demeulemeester, bright elegancy of Lanvin or chic classic of Hermes and Ralph Lauren.
Chloe is best known for their very special handbags. These always come in basic forms that make them wardrobe staples and good investments. Besides, Chloe makes exceptionally practical pieces of high quality that will serve you for a long time.
The new Spring-Summer 2010 collection of hanbags includes a few new models, all in leather but in various colors. There are no vibrant yellow or neon green hues here, just pure classic tones like browns, blacks, reds and beiges.

Haiti problem has provoked compassion in many people and they try to help in lots of possible ways – from direct donations to selling expensive items to benefit the sufferers.
Scarlett Johansson couldn’t just watch the people living in poverty. She took an effort to raise money for those in need. The actress has designed a stylish handbag that is to sell in Mango stores soon.
The ‘Iron Man’ star has sketched designs for an ivory bag with a map print to boost relief funds for the earthquake-stricken nation through global charity Oxfam.
She said:
I’m thrilled to be collaborating with Mango to promote conscious consumerism and to benefit Oxfam’s Haiti Earthquake Response Fun. By purchasing this bag, which I specially designed, you are helping to provide life saving assistance like clean water to the people of Haiti.”
The 25-year-old’s creation also contains the words: “supporting the people of Haiti, designed by Scarlett Johansson.”
The bag won’t be very pricey – just $29.90 for an item. You’ll be able to purchase it starting from March.
As you already know Scarlett isn’t the only celebrity who uses her fashion skills to help the Caribbean nation. Lindsay Lohan and Jessica Simpson also sell clothes to help the charity fundraising.

Sandra Bullock is one of those who I respect a lot. She is super-talented, hardworking, beautiful, but she is also very generous. And what makes me think of her even better, she never shows off donating to charity.
As you might have heard she’s given $1 million to Haiti relief after the nation suffered the terrible earthquake this month. And now again she has teamed up with luxury fashion brand Coach to donate profits from her favorite handbags to charity.
A percentage of proceeds from her two favorite Coach bags, including the Madison Leather Hippie and the Kristin Leather Tote, will go to the Beauty Bus Foundation, which is a California-based non-profit group dedicated to improving the quality of life for the terminally ill.
Sandra has been praised by Beauty Bus Co-founder and President Alicia Liotta for her “wonderful support”.
Liotta told People:
The project was put together by Coach and Sandra. It was an incredible surprise and is a gift to the Beauty Bus Foundation.”
I love the fact she donates not only to big and popular organisations, but small an dunknown too. I wouldn’t be surprised to know she has helped lots of times but we know nothing about it. Good luck, Sandra!

We all know the power of accessories. And if the ones are strong and vibrant they can change the whole look of yours.
Kenzo collection of accessories for winter 2010 is a very special one. It includes unusual handbags made of fur, suede and leather, embellished with sequins and adorned with clips and rivents. The technique of patchwork is used beautifully too. The colors are bright and very fresh and youthful.
Belts come in ordinary designs but there are some eccentric ones as well. I just love those with fur on buckles!
Shoes are nice but seem to be too dangerous to walk in. The platforms are huge and don’t look steady enough. The fur trimming looks chic.
Hats are very warm and stylish, but you can’t wear them with your classic coat, of course.

Prada is always associated with luxury and sophistication and the label does really make things that are chic and fabulous. But something must have happened with the stylist as the new Spring-Summer 2010 ad campaign focuses more on bright orange lipstick and green sunglasses rather than clothes and accessories created by the brand’s designers.
Rasa Zukauskaite, a young and little known Lithuanian model, was chosen to represent the label this coming fashion season.
The girl is very pretty and her appeal makes the ad look nice. Some glamour is added by clothing and handbags but anyway attention is attracted to the face, something that shouldn’t be too much important in an ad like this.

It is becoming popular to say your offspring gives you fashion advice. What is it? Do we lose the sense of style or the younger know better?
Kate Moss has recenly confessed she listens to her seven-year-old daughter’s advice on choosing clothes. The British supermodel cliams Lila Grace already knows about fashion!
She told Company magazine:
Lila’s already got a great handbag collection! She’s got a mirrored Fendi bag and she’ll say things like, ‘I’m not going to wear that anymore’. She knows what she likes and I can’t force her to wear anything she doesn’t want to, which is annoying sometimes. She loves clothes. She’s got really good style, as well.”
The two usually go shopping together and Lila tells what she likes on her model mummy and what looks bad on her.
Kate says:
I rarely go shopping without her now. She tells me what she doesn’t like or she’ll say ‘Mummy, you look nice,’ or ‘That dress is amazing!’ She’s got it.”
Kate Moss isn’t the only celebrity to take style advice from her child. Another British star, Victoria Beckham, says her seven-year-old son Romeo loves helping her out with her fashion range.
