Agatha Ruiz De La Prada Colorful Rugs

Next to Dame Viv’s pop-pillows, these Agatha Ruiz de la Prada rugs look fit for the children’s playground!

But I say a splash of color is always wonderful, especially at home: it can bright up your day just by looking at it. I love a good home-deco accent that doesn’t take itself seriously. Agatha Ruiz’ rugs are free of child labor and a percentage of the earnings from the sale of each rug are destined for various social projects in hospitals and schools. Don’t you just dream of having Agatha Ruiz little colored hearts and flowers rugs to step on every day? (via 1, 2)

Models turn designers. Because they can. Amber Valletta is rumored to have her own clothing collection on the way this summer. But she assured everyone that the collection is recession-respectful. Hoping for Wasson-like garage sales? (Pipeline, photo via)

Marc Jacobs and Kate Moss seem to be having so much fun together! Their latest? Helping make the world a better place by planting a tree in their neighborhood.

Wait, what? Noo-no! Just kidding, Marc Jacobs and Kate Moss were out partying all night (comme d’habitude), raising Hell with their French Cancan! Men skirts really get to you, Marc! (more after the jump!)

I thought my eyes were deceiving me, but no! Daria Werbowy really, really graces the covers of both Vogue UK and Vogue Paris for May 2009!

Mario Testino’s Vogue UK May 2009 cover with Daria Werbowy looks nothing like Inez and Vinoodh’s Daria Werbowy for Vogue Paris May 2009. The Brit edition looks more like Cosmo… (the story continues right after the jump, with larger images of the two covers)

Not long ago, I spawned a controversy regarding a bogus ad campaign for a so-called Billionaire Champagne. I’ll take the controversy road again for these Louis Vuitton sneakers by Kanye West as advertised by him.

Kanye West is one of those starving for fashion and fash-recognition, but he was harmlessly assisting Fashion Week Shows until he got the brilliant idea that he could be a fashion designer himself. (the story continues right after the jump with more pictures!)

Besides going to bed like there’s a date waiting at the door, like the Kaiser said, you always have to take your style with you when you travel.

Being a travel-fashionist/a is a must for fash addicts everywhere. But I never imagined it could really come out to this: The Prada Universal Adapter! Prada revolutionized my perspective on all things luxury when they added this tiny but oh-so-useful gadget to their travel collection. There’s no price information attached to this piece of luxury news, but even so, how’s a Prada adapter more interesting than a regular one? (via)

It’s reassuring to see the fashion/cosmetics giants getting their eco vibes on! The legendary Juicy Tubes from Lancôme go P.U.R.E. (Premium Unique Raw Elements).

With a 100% recycling packaging (even their box is made of recyclable cardboard), Lancôme takes the gloss experience a step further, giving a healthy, environmental friendly twist to their coveted lip shine. Given that everyone goes green, does it mean that eco is the new market strategy? It makes you feel safer to know that more and more products go “green”? (via)

Kim Kardashian’s photoshopping needs got just a bit more complicated than her last Complex issue: she just got a very serious sunburn wearing the Prada Butterfly sunglasses! Given her extraordinary court-agreement-abilities, shouldn’t she press charges? The Prada sunglasses should’ve disappear from her Kardashian-highness face! (People)
