Gwen Stefani Teams with Target for Harajuku Mini Collection




Gwen Stefani is designing a kids' clothing collection for Target called Harajuku Mini. The "Japanese anime-inspired" line will feature products for babies, children and teens and will retail for $3.99 to $29.99. (via WWD) How cute will this be?! Gwen's kids always look beyond cool and her other forays into fashion have been hugely successful, so I have no doubt this line will be a hit. Look for Harajuku Mini at Target stores and online at target.com November 13, 2011.

White by Vera Wang for David's Bridal Fall 2011 Preview


Back in April, I had the magical experience of previewing the White by Vera Wang for David's Bridal Fall 2011 collection in New York City. With her Fall collection, Vera Wang presents seven new bridal gown styles, priced between $600-$1,200. Styles range from a romantic strapless ball gown with corded lace bodice and tossed tulle skirt to A-line, column and mermaid silhouettes for the classic modern bride. The Fall collection also marks the highly anticipated debut of seven bridesmaids dresses (all under $200) and shoes (under $100).
