You might have noticed that I am trying to put more focus towards fashion on INO. So I am going to cover NY’s Fashion Week heavy… especially the celebrity angle. Here are Niki Taylor, Tyson Beckford, Gisele Bundchen, Victoria Silvstedt, Brooke Shields, Molly Sims, Cheryl Hines, Sophia Bush, Olivia Palermo, and Ana Ortiz on day one. Always love to see what people wear to these events. More to follow.

Fashion Week is upon us and I am so excited to be heading down there this weekend. Originally, I was going to do the entire week. BUT luckily, I aligned myself with my buddy Sam from Papier Doll who is going to supply me with photos from all the shows so I don’t have to go the full seven days. PHEW!! Here are Lisa Rinna, Joss Stone, Heidi Klum and Ashanti at the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2008 – Red Dress Fashion Show.

Here is Hilary Duff launching her new fragrance, ‘Wrapped With Love’, at the Myer department store in Sydney, Australia. We gave a few of her other scent away a few weeks / months ago and got a wonderful response. I’m going to work on getting us a contest for this one.Hilary looked great as usual. Love her hair color.

“Please respect our need to grieve privately. My heart is broken. I am the mother of the most tender-hearted, high-spirited, beautiful little girl who is the spitting image of her father. All that I can cling to is his presence inside her that reveals itself every day.
“His family and I watch Matilda as she whispers to trees, hugs animals, and takes steps two at a time, and we know that he is with us still. She will be brought up in the best memories of him.”

May they all find peace.

Rich over at FourFour, who I’ve met before and love, is really getting known for the short videos he makes. A few weeks ago, he made one about Celine Dion that had me literally hysterical. But I didn’t post it because there was some graphic language in it and I didn’t think it fit with the site’s M.O. Well, today a friend emailed me this one of Christina Aguilera and her yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah’s that she does in all her songs. Guess I never noticed it before since I am a mega Christina fan. Do you have her Christmas album? I listen to that cd for about three months straight once I get into the Christmas spirit. Anyway, here is the video and visit FourFour for the Celine one as well.

Well, that was quick wasn’t it? Looks like Spice Girl Mel C wants no part of this reunion and is pulling the plug earlier than originally anticipated. She’s had enough and wants to go back to doing her own thing. I wasn’t really aware she was doing her own thing? Readers from overseas, was she popular when she was solo?

“Geri and Victoria have been loving the attention and adulation the tour has been bringing the girls in the UK and North America. Mel B has really enjoyed being on stage and performing again. And Emma has found it hard with a young son but was prepared to carried on. But Mel C is the one who always insisted the reunion should be only short-term. Now she wants to go back to doing her own thing. Because they couldn’t all agree the extra tour dates have been pulled. Touring has been harder on all the girls this time round. But all of them could have been persuaded to continue – apart from Mel C.”

The band yesterday announced their gig in Toronto on February 26 will be their last. Originally, they were supposed to hit up Australia, China, South Africa and Argentina as well.
