LC Lauren Conrad for Kohl's Spring 2011 Shoes




For Spring 2011, the LC Lauren Conrad for Kohl's collection is introducing shoes, a very exciting development considering how much we like the clothes. Ranging in price from $54.99 for flats to $64.99 for platform sandals, this debut line features Conrad's modern feminine style. Standouts include a sexy platform pump, no doubt inspired by LC's personal collection of Louboutins and Brian Atwood heels, and the "Zander" sandal, which reminds me of the style LC wore here. To be honest, I think the prices are a little steep for the quality, even if the name of the game at Kohl's is sales and coupons. The footwear styles shown here are slated to hit stores in March 2011, if you spy them sooner let me know!

Kelly Osbourne is the New Material Girl for Spring 2011


Kelly Osbourne is the New Material Girl for Spring 2011

Madonna and daughter Lola are back with Kelly Osbourne as their new celebrity muse for the Material Girl Spring 2011 collection, available at Macy's and macys.com. Photographed by fashion photographer Brooke Nipar, the campaign harkens back to Madonna's roots in New York City's East Village, and features a studio set inspired by the East Village of the 80s with chain link fences and historical images. Kelly is adorable and no doubt a lovely person in real life but this campaign is one big Photoshopped yawn. More pics after the jump...

Rebecca Minkoff Fall 2011




For her first runway show, designer Rebecca Minkoff found inspiration in Charlotte Kemp Muhl, who performed with boyfriend Sean Lennon's band The Ghost of A Saber Tooth Tiger, then walked the runway to close the show in a floor-length velvet burnout dress. Despite the high-profile musical guests and celebrity-studded front row, the attention was definitely on the clothes and of course, the bags.
