Enough about L.A and LC, it’s time for New York City and The Hills’ nice-girl Whitney Port to take center stage! MTV confirmed last week that Whitney will star in a spin off series called The City, that will chronicle her life as a Diane Von Furstenberg employee in New York. We’re excited to hear that Whitney will finally get a love interest, and her own drama-filled group of friends. The best part (at least for us) is that DVF will appear on the show — so it has to be good! The City will premiere in the spring of 2009.
Tyra’s America’s Next Top Model sidekicks, Jay Manuel and Miss Jay, are getting their own show, too, called Operation Fabulous. The dynamic duo will travel around the country giving “high-fashion” makeovers to normal people. Top Model fanatics shouldn’t despair — Jay says the two will definitely continue to appear on the original show!

Laced with nostalgia, Castelbajac’s playful collection depicts childhood, a time when life was full of clouds, rainbows, and Mickey Mouse, in the form of runway fashion. Models wore backpacks, larger-than-life bows, clear plastic, kissmarks, and legos. Disney characters and Superman were represented, as well as Barack Obama, for good measure. Apart from the kiddie-inspired graphics and accessories, the design of the garments themselves were constructed as loose fitting dresses, rompers, and tees–perfect for your next playdate…or whatever it is you do for fun these days.

We recently discovered that you can get Charlotte Ronson‘s sweet street-chic designs across the country at an affordable price at J.C. Penney, starting in the spring of 2009. The lower-priced line, exclusive to the mega-retailer is dubbed I (Heart) Ronson and will be comprised of tees, tops, sweaters, jeans, skirts, dresses and jackets. Targeted toward 21-35 year old women, the line will be carried at 600 out of 1,093 J.C. Penney. locations Retail prices will range from $15-$65, and we just hope that there are some pieces available in our size, when we finally get out of this concrete jungle and head to a J.C. Penney in the suburbs!
