Hills star has a Hit

I’m a firm believer in Anna Wintour‘s saying about how people should know their craft before they get into their business. I’ve posted that quote on this blog a number of times so I thought I would spare you tonight, but it’s totally true! There’s nothing wrong with wanting to dabble in a hobby or exploring your dreams. I’m all for that. What is hard for me to take seriously is when you know nothing about what you’re doing and you haven’t done the research. It’s just silly really. The stars of The Hills have had their hits and misses with it. Lauren Conrad had two clothing lines. Her high fashion one didn’t do so well and was so vanilla plain basic that we knew that it was too bad to be overpriced. She downgraded to Kohls! Then she became an author and her book became a hit seller…now she has found her niche. Whitney Port also launched her own clothing line. She recently showed at Fashion Week in Miami so I’m just going to assume that she’s doing alright. Heidi got lots of plastic surgery, tried to sing and is still trying, and had a collection with Anchor Blue. Fail x 3? I think so.

Olivia Palermo – my style icon has decided to collaborate with Roberta Freymann on a new jewelry collection. Above is one piece from it. I think we know already that that necklace is amazing so I doubt we’ll be seeing her turn out as bad as Heidi.

Fast Fashion

In this recession, it seems like high end stores and boutiques are suffering while on the other hands chain stores such as H&M, Forever 21 and Target have sky rocketing sales.

Why is this?

I think it’s because people are starting to realize that they are paying way more for an item of clothing that they could find elsewhere cheaper. Certain prints that we see on the runway are being imitated and put into stores. It’s kind of like copying but I’d rather be paying $20 then $200. In an effort for designers to still make a profit, they look towards smaller chain stores for collaboration opportunities. Designer Matthew Williamson just released his line w/ H&M, Lauren Conrad now has plans to open a line w/ Kohls and now Tracey Feith is designing for Target!

Matthew Williamson’s collection is in 200 H&M stores now

and Tracey Feith’s line will be in Target stores until June 20th

The Hills will be retuning for another season without LC

MTV announced today that all of your favorite “characters” from The Hills will be back. As for Lauren, she will be leaving the show (finally) and starting to promote her new clothing line for Kohls.

“Heidi Montag, Audrina Patridge, Spencer Pratt, Brody Jenner, Stephanie Pratt, Lo Bosworth, Justin Bobby and “fresh faces,” will be back, the network teases in a statement.

“Spencer and Heidi will be newlyweds, so the stakes are higher than ever before for the two to make things work,” adds MTV. “Viewers will find out life in Los Angeles only gets more complicated as friendships, relationships and loyalties are tested like never before.”

Epic fail. In the words of Kristen Cavallari, “I’m so over it.”
