Miss Sixty Fall/Winter 2009
Miss Sixty's Fall 2009 line is alive with rock-n-roll chic and lots of attitude. The denim pieces which favor acid wash and lace-print denim kept to a super skinny silhouette and it is possible we may be seeing these denim harem pants and jumper become a wardrobe staple. The brand which has grown past it's denim roots also presented plenty of frilly party frocks and as a styling tip even with the rock-n-roll edge to the line hair and makeup were kept simple and girly. Sixty Group who own the fashion line also have a hotel in Riccione, Italy called Sixty Hotel the first in a planned hotel chain that is heavily styled by young emerging artists and wired to the hilt to satisfy your inner technophile. Like the fashion brand the man behind the hotel Creative Director Wilchy Hassan personally oversees ever detail and just incase you need to shop while staying there directly connected to the Sixty Hotel you will find a Miss Sixty store for your shopping pleasure.

Lindsay Lohan for Fornarina Ad Campaign
Check out Lindsay Lohan's new commercial for Fornarina jeans. It screams 1980's but that seems to be the trend lately, and Lindsay looks great.

The new S/S 2009 ad campaign for Calvin Klein jeans featuring a bunch of hot and sweaty denim clad models getting steamy with each other has apparently been banned by US TV for being too sexy - which obviously makes it perfect online viewing!

Teens For Jeans - Help The Homeless
Do Something is an non profit organization based in the U.S. that believes in the power of teens to make a difference. They have partnered with Aeropostale to collect jeans for homeless teens and have enlisted "Gossip Girl's" Chace Crawford to get the message out. Teens For Jeans is a great project, all you have to do is drop off a pair of gently worn jeans to an Aeropostale store (or go online and get further info) and they will get the jeans to a local homeless shelter for teens. As a reward you will receive 25% off your next pair of jeans. This project runs until February 22nd.
I'm a fan of Do Something and last month became the recipient of my own grant to begin work to furnish the Mens Dorm at CIDA College in South Africa (South Africa's first "free" College). Working through viral campaigns and events I hope to accomplish my goal of furnishing the 68 rooms this year. Please check out my grant and I encourage everyone who can to "Do Something" - www.dosomething.org/savannah
