Sasha Pivovarove is a supermodel, legitimate painter, actress & now Gap lingerie designer. Some people are just over-achievers. (Fashionista)
Not sure where this Top 10 list originated from; but the important thing is I found it & I am sharing it with you! Check out Miss Piggy’s Top 10 Fashion Tips – they will make you snort. (Shine)
95 years after the brand was first conceived, Keds is launching a clothing line exclusively available at Opening Ceremony. Why is this necessary? This sneak peek is just … meh. You’ve lasted 95 years in the fashion industry – so I’m thinking if it ain’t broke? (Fabsugar)
