Cookie has  a new line of denim that Oprah has stated as “the perfect jeans for real women with real booties. For three days straight, I had on the jeans.”

Cookie designed the jeans to fit curvy women. She is a woman in great shape but ,naturally, has some beautiful curves. She found that there was a lack of jeans inthe denim market for women with a curvy shape. “I couldn’t find jeans to fit my body. It frustrated me to try on every pair of jeans in the store and leave with nothing … Top designers were excluding this demographic.”

Cookie worked with Michael Glasser, the man who helped develop Seven for all Mankind, Rich & Skinny, and Citizens of Humanity.

Prices range from $145 – $198, and styles are available in sizes 24-38.

Thanks Cookie!!!

Cheap cashmere is made from hairs of the outer layer, as well as the inner coat of the goats. The outer layer hairs make for coarse cashmere as opposed to fine cashmere. It will lose its shape, and may be itchy. It all comes down to one question: Do you want to be chic or cheap?

New Zealand–based Cassius blog reports:

Tyra, Nigel, Jay M., Jay A., and new judge, Vogue Editor-at-Large, André Leon Talley, have been in Auckland since the first week of December. Everyone is obsessed with spotting or stalking them, like an endangered species. New Zealand rarely hosts Hollywood celebrities so it makes them even more interesting.

The contestants chosen for this show are especially fortunate to be coached by fashion connoisseur, André Leon Talley.  I certainly will tune in for next season’s Top Model. It looks to have a pretty exciting group of judges.

A cosmetics-marketing company is suing Naomi Campbell for allegedly keeping its cut of the profits earned from a fragrance-licensing agreement.

The company says she stopped paying Moodform Mission its share of proceeds from scents it helped develop. The scents included Naomi Campbell, Cat Deluxe and Seductive Elixir.

Just because someone files for Bankruptcy doesn’t mean they are actually broke.

Many businesses file Chapter 11 to remain in control of their business while paying off some of their debts.  Their creditors have to abide by the bankruptcy laws and get compensated by the terms of the court.  Businesses also file Chapter 11 so they won’t have to pay the entire amount back to their creditors and sometimes they are totally forgiven for an amount owed. It is up to the bankruptcy courts to decide who, when, and how much is paid to each creditor. You must be approved for a Chapter 11, not every company is.

Many wealthy people file Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Donald Trump casino’s group filed for Chapter 11 in February of 2009.  Donald Trump is very wealthy, but Trump Entertainment petition listed less than $50 million in assets and nearly $500 million in debt.  It was his company’s debt not his personal debt.

This seems to be the case for Naomi Campbell. The amount of the lawsuit wasn’t disclosed. Naomi has made millions of dollars in the modeling world. She is also dating a billionaire at the present time. I am sure, though, that any debt she has incurred will be her responsibility.

It is a smart move to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy to keep control of your companies’ assets if you have a large debt and still would like to continue to do business.
