Fashion Collabo: Rachel Roy & Jessica Stam

According to WWD, one of my favorite designers; Rachel Roy, recently recruited model Jessica Stam to co-design a capsule collection for her Rachel Rachel Roy label. The collection will feature a jean, a cardigan and a handbag.

"Fashion is something I grew up surrounded by, so now that I'm putting pen to paper the ideas are flying out," Stam said.

Teaming up with models and celebrities for fashion inspiration isn't foreign to Rachel Roy. Roy has also worked with Brit singer Estelle for her jewelry collection. The pieces, which will launch in October, will be unveiled during New York Fashion Week in September. Roy's fashion taste is elegantly chic and Jessica seems to have a more upscale Parisan edge so it will be nice to see what these two come up with.

Jean Paul Gaultier at a Target Near You!

If affordably trendy fashion from Alexander McQueen and Anna Sui haven't made Target your favorite shopping destination, maybe Jean Paul Gaultier will. According to WWD, word has it that fashion extraordinare, Jean Paul Gaultier, is next up to collaborate with Target. Although the process has started, don't run down to the nearest supercenter yet because Gaultier's designs won't be in stores for a while.

“We don’t have anything to share other than we admire his work and incredible design aesthetic,” a Target spokesman said Thursday.

A spokeswoman for Gaultier declined comment.

Wouldn't you agree that great things have come out of this recession for bargain seeking fashionistas?!
