After all the snark caused by Alexander Wang’s winter ad campai—ahem, “image pieces,” it should come as no surprise that he’s shaking things up for fall 2011. Literally. The men’s and women’s T by Alexander Wang campaign features a bonus video of Santigold and Spankrock wearing Wang’s super-soft tees and dancing their hearts out to an exclusive remix of Santi’s new single “GO.” The brand hasn’t completely done away with their guerilla style posters though—Dan Jackson shot the Alastair McKimm-styled duo for photos currently being plastered across New York City. First Rye Rye for Prabal and now Satigold for Wang? This is one marketing trend we definitely endorse. Click through to watch the video!
Amber.Stardoll- It has been two years since Katie Holmes ventured into the designing business together with her two friends Heather McQuarrie and Jeanne Yang. Katie and her daughter Suri are often seen wearing the "Holmes & Yang" designs, but they have yet to attract any real celebrities to their clientele. Katie is however hoping that's something that might soon change, revealing her dreams of dressing likes such as Adele, Alicia Keys and Kate Middleton! She explains that in the end it's the woman who makes the clothes, and not the other way around. We couldn't agree more! However we think that she still has some work left to do if she's hoping to attract fashionable royals like Kate. Holmes & Yang has presented a few real stunner pieces, but majority of the designs have been rather shaky in our eyes. But you should never say never, many designers bust their asses off for several years before they catch their big break!

As you might of guessed, Rihanna is the latest super star set to drop her clothes for Emporio Armani's underwear and jeans collection. The billboards are due to come up in cities worldwide in September, and we really can't wait!

- Sarah Jessica Parker is one fashion icon that few celebrities can beat.
We first fell in love with her, and her style when she played Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City, but we also love her personal style, which is sometimes classic and sometimes very daring! Our favorite look on SJP is her red carpet outfits and she often puts on a dramatic dress that looks gorgeous.
Check out Sarah Jessica Parker’s Top 10 Red Carpet Dresses!

- Well this is something you don't see very often - royals riding horses in California! As you all know, the British royal couple Prince William & Kate Middleton are currently in California spreading British traditions and class, and this weekend they hosted a game of one of the most British sports there is - polo! The event, called "The Foundation Polo Challenge" was held at the Santa Barbara Polo & Racquet Club Carpinteria. While William participated in the game, Kate watched proudly from the audience and when they were finally reunited, they even showed some PDA!

While the world waits and waits for news of a Dior appointment, LVMH has been busy filling another spot—one no one knew was open. This morning’s WWD (and last night’s Twitter) broke the surprising news that Opening Ceremony’s Carol Lim and Humberto Leon will take over as Creative Directors of Kenzo effective immediately. Antonio Marras, who’s been with the brand since 2004, just presented his men’s collection last month—the next women’s collection, shown at Paris Fashion Week in October, will be by Lim and Leon. And while vintage Kenzo’s considered a treasure by most fashion lovers, it’s lost some of its fashion cred in recent years. If anyone can make it cool again it’s Lim and Leon. The duo have led Opening Ceremony to the top of its game while mentoring other designers like Chloë Sevigny and propelling brands like Rodarte and Proenza Schouler into the greater sphere of shopping (instead of just fashion with a capital ‘F’). The two will shuttle back and forth from Paris to New York but plan to “build an exciting team” of designers at Kenzo to bring their vision to life on the runway.
ElleGirl- The more the merrier, right? That’s what we think when it comes to not one, but two talented teams joining forces to give us the best of both their worlds in limited capsule collections. From Kate Spade to Jeremy Scott, we take a look at some recent (and highly anticipated) collabs that have us lusting for more. Kate Spade + Current/Elliot- These two big-named designers have joined forces to come up with a new handbag collection, called “The Westward by Emily and Meritt for Kate Spade New York Collection.” The long-titled capsule collection will debut in stores in August, and the six-piece line will have gorgeous handbags priced from $245-$1,295.

Jeremy Scott + Adidas- The quirky designer is teaming up with the sports label to create a fun and youthful take on “athletic” wear for the fall 2011 collection. The eccentric collection will include a tiger striped hoodie, a panda T-shirt, a sequined camouflage mini-dress, and so much more. If this qualifies as buying “workout” gear–we think we’ve found our calling.

- Yesterday, Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part 2 held it's American premiere in New York City. Many of the film's biggest stars showed up, as well as quite a few prominent NYC fashion icons!
However they had nothing on Emma Watson, who looked breathtakingly beautiful in a strapless gold dress from Bottega Veneta's Fall 2011 collection. Explaining her choice of dress, Emma told the reporters, "New York is such a fashion capital, I felt I could push the envelope a bit. With London I went a bit more classic but for today I wanted to do something edgier."
We don't know about you guys, but we think Emma absolutely nailed her NYC look. But not to forget the movie's male actors, who we feel deserve a shout-out of their own for looking immaculately sharp and dapper in their designer suits!

- We saw Rachel Bilson out and about in Los Angeles yesterday, getting take-out from a local restaurant. We are a big fan of Rachel’s style - she always looks cute and stylish. But we can’t decide what we think of this white outfit she was wearing, so we need your help. What do you think of Rachel’s summeroutfit? Would you wear it?
