Naomi Campbell opens up a pop-up shop in collaboration with London shopping center Westfield. The shop will sell outfits from her Fashion for Relief shows.  Shop will include clothing from fashion heavy weights such as Vivienne Westwood, Tom Ford, Givenchy, Christopher Kane, Stella McCartney and Mulberry.  Celebrities will also donate clothing to Ms. Campbell's pop-up shop.

The shop will remain open from April 6th to the 13th. Profits be donated to The Prince's Trust, benefiting 14 to 30-year-olds who need practical and financial support in order to turn their lives around.

Louis Vuitton Cheche Monogram Bohemian Bag

BY VANGARDE GIRL NELLE, SEPTEMBER 29, 2010

Although fall has officially arrived the Louis Vuitton Spring 2010 Cheche Bohemian Monogram handbags are still a favorite.  Rihanna was spotted with the lime Cheche LV this week and Naomi Campbell wore the coral version during NYC Fashion Week.  I must admit I would purchase this bag if it was in my budget.  I'm no longer a logo whore, unless it's Marc Jacobs cause that's my boo.  And yes I'm fully aware he is the Creative Director at Louis Vuitton but I still only want MJ not LV.  The classic Louis Vuittion Monogram bags are so boring and overrated to me, simply because every where I turn I see those bags.  This collection was not available online only at Louis Vuitton retailers. I say if you are going to invest in a Louis Vuitton handbag purchase a limited edition style.  When the collection is sold out or discontinued you have a great bag worth the high price tag.  Why would I spend big bucks on a bag every Sarah, Sue and Kim is carrying and has been replicated by every counterfeiter from the USA to China. 

A Softer Side of Naomi Campbell

BY VANGARDE GIRL NELLE, SEPTEMBER 28, 2010

Ms. Campbell sheds tears as she celebrates 25 years of being in the business with Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana of Dolce & Gabbana during Milan Spring/Summer 2011 Fashion Week.  I know for the past few years Ms. Campbell has had a handful of assault charges but I think underneath all that Diva there's a soft layer remaining. My thoughts on Naomi are always subjective, I love her bad ass attitude, people always tell me I look like her even though I don't and my temper is just as short. In her defense no one's perfect we're all human.

Celebrity Style: Jessica Alba & Naomi Campbell

BY VANGARDE GIRL NELLE, AUGUST 31, 2010

Jessica Alba and Naomi Campbell attended the Uomo Vogue Dinner for Quentin Tarantino during the Venice International Film Festival in Venice, Italy.   Although both dresses are similar in shape and volume, the looks are completely different.  Jessica's neutral and pastel color palette, right above the knee length dress, flower applique on shoe, pulled back hair, minimal jewelry and red lips is lady like and classy.  While Naomi's long curly tresses, black corselet top mini dress with a cinched waist,  strappy tie up sandals, smokey eyes screams sexy.  Both ladies looked great.

Cat Fight

One magazine, one issue, three separate covers.  Rumor has it the fame monster was added to the project last minute; Kate Moss and Naomi were not pleased with posing with Gaga.  I would've loved to see all three on one cover but I guess their ego's weren't big enough to fit onto one cover.  We'll see who the real it girl is by which cover sells the most copies.  Can't we all just get along?
