But Wait, There's More: Ashley Greene Gets Cozy for DKNY Jeans & pureDKNY Fall 2012 Campaign!

I was practically gushing over the Fall 2012 ad campaign that Ashley Greene did for DKNY, but then I came across the additional shoot she did for the DKNY Jeans and pureDKNY divisions — and my jaw dropped even further.

I mean, seriously — get this girl on the catwalk!

As with the previous campaign, the handsome man with Ash in some of the shots is German model Johannes Huebl.

I’m totally style crushing on that teal off-the-shoulder sweater she’s wearing in one of the photos below.

It’s been over fifteen years since Chloë Sevigny starred in a campaign for Miu Miu, but the 37-year-old actress returns as the face of the fashion label with the Fall 2012 campaign!

I can’t say that I’m surprised to see this happening as Chloë often sticks by Miu Miu for her red carpet looks and after her recent MET Gala appearance, I felt like something of this nature could be brewing between the two.

In the first released shot from the campaign, Chloë wears bright blue shadow on her eyes and vibrant red on her lips as she reclines in a low chair — tea cup in hand — while donned in a black blouse with checkered print and mirrored elements partnered with a pair of printed trousers and platform ankle boots from the Fall 2012 collection. | continue reading..

We may be in the midst of a very hot summer — the season most of us count down the days for. I mean, it can be fabulous — longer days equals longer weekends and that’s what we really love, right?

With that said, I’m born in October and can’t stop the Autumn lover in me from being super excited to see the Fall/Winter 2012 DKNY ad campaign that just launched!

“Twilight” star Ashley Greene returns for her second campaign with the New York-based fashion brand in a series of ultra-chic shots wearing looks (and accessories) straight from the Fall 2012 runway presentation — and even some that didn’t quite make the catwalk. | continue reading..

Several months ago we were informed that Kristen Stewart had been tapped by designer label BALENCIAGA to front the advertisement campaign for their newest fragrance. Since then, Creative Director Nicolas Ghesquière and Kristen have talked a lot about the project, but other than an appearance of the duo at this year’s MET Gala and a few Balenciaga wardrobe moments as she promoted her films this spring — we haven’t gotten much else.

At least, until today!

The highly-awaited scent is called “Florabotanica“, and during an interview with WWD, Kristen spoke highly of the new scent.

“I’m very lucky that I like the fragrance, because I would have done anything with [Balenciaga designer Nicolas Ghesquière],” continued the 22-year-old. “And I’m a terrible liar.” | continue reading..
