Victoria Beckham Started A Fashion Line Just To Prove She Could Do It
Maybe one of the reasons people can be so dismissive about Victoria Beckham‘s various forays into the fashion industry don’t have so much to do with the fact that she’s a celebrity as they do with the fact that they’ve never heard her talk about running a business. Because when that happens, it sounds like Posh Spice knows exactly what she’s doing.
The Kardashians Had No Idea They’d Called Themselves A ‘Klan’
We are halfway through Kim Kardashian’s four hour, two part wedding extravaganza, and though nary a nuptial has yet to air (last night’s episode was dedicated mainly to Kris Jenner’s plastic surgery), every media outlet and their mother has dedicated today to the Kardashians.

Marc Jacobs Doesn’t Care That Justin Bieber’s Perfume Looks Like His
At next week’s CFDA Awards, Marc Jacobs will take the podium to receive the Geoffrey Beene Lifetime Achievement Award. (And, yes, he’s only 48. A deserving 48, but 48 nonetheless.)

The Olsens Gift Each Other ‘Impressive’ Diamonds, Hermes Bags
Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen won’t find out if they won the CFDA’s award for Emerging Talent until the ceremony next week, but the press they got in today’s issue of Women’s Wear Daily says it all. The industry paper dedicated no less than four articles to the duo, the best of which is a lengthy profile by Bridget Foley in which the sisters “wax rapturous” about Alexander McQueen and Foley waxes equally rapturous about the insanely awesome gifts they give each other.
10 Important Things We Learned Last Week: Oct. 31-Nov. 6

In Which We Wish A Happy 100th Birthday To WWD

Courtney Love Explains Her Style Blog
Last week, fashion chemist and Hole front woman Courtney Love launched a fashion blog that had us simultaneously riveted and decidedly confused.
