Amy Winehouse is rumored to be singing at the LV show and is being paid *Dr. evil voice* $1million

WOULD YOU WEAR THESE?

Mary Kate Olsen was wearing Sylvia Weinstock* esque glasses but alal the top part is tinted and the bottom part isn't. In some weird way, i think i kinda want these but they will look so weird with my face. So I ask, is this the new ginormous sunglasses? Would any "normal" person wear this?

*Sylvia Weinstock is the famous cake designer to the stars

Lucy Liu at YSL Paris store opening. not sure the belt should be there but we read via fashionista that Cashmere Mafia might be 86d from ABC. I hope its a nasty rumor started by Candace Bushnell's camp to get at Daren Star but that would be tres mauvais.

RESTAURANT BOOM DOWNTOWN IS A GOOD SIGN

Cafe Lola just opened, Original soupman is slated to open "next week." This is a good sign for downtown as there needs to be a mix(El arrepazo is awesome) besides einstein, au bon pain but I wonder will cafe Lola try to take in Broad Street bagels' clientele?

Cinco, a new restaurant by the Cafe lola guy will open "in about five months." Wait wait wait, is he trying to set up shop before the collaboration btw El Arrepazo&Due Amici launches??

Read the whole Dispatch article HERE

I really hope these establishments last longer than 4 months and they can consider opening later than 3or4pm and question where are they going to fit seating for 30 in front of the huntington building??

Eau De Timberlake- Justin has been tapped by Givenchy as new face of fragrance launching 2008. "Beyond his immense international notoriety, we chose Justin Timberlake because he's a true trendsetter who has redefined modern elegance,” stated Alain Lorenzo, Parfums Givenchy’s president. "When he smelled it, his only words were 'It's cool,'"

YSL Beauté has tapped architect Jean Nouvel. The French beauty brand called on Nouvel, whose recent projects include Paris' Quai Branly museum, to design a limited edition bottle for L'Homme Yves Saint Laurent scent, which first bowed in fall 2006. Nouvel's interpretation of L'Homme's flacon resembles an upturned test tube*, which sits on a black hexagonal base, while a green float bearing the YSL logo bobs on the scent's juice. "Jean Nouvel is a celebrity very much in vogue and who has international renown," said Philippe Farnier, managing director for YSL Beauté France.

COLUMBUSSITE ETCH-A-SKETCHER

I believe either he is or looks just like the guy that does security at Rhodes tower downtown

ERYKAH BADU FOR TOM FORD-HOTTT!

Vogue UK hears that Tom Ford is working with politically-outspoken singer Erykah Badu. The American soulstress will be the face of Ford's new fragrance, the name of which has not yet been released. Badu shot to fame in the Nineties with hits such On & On, which earned her a Grammy, and was known early in her career for her colourful African headwraps; she also changed the spelling of her name, which was originally 'Erica', to 'Erykah', which she believed to be her original 'slave' name.

HORYN NEEDS TO FALL BACK

Cathy Horyn is back in the penalty box at Giorgio Armani. The New York Times scribe was informed by a letter from the Italian designer she would not be invited to his signature show on Monday because of what she had written about his couture show last January. Specifically, Armani charged that Horyn "belittled" his family and friends in her description of the preshow scene. At Jil Sander Monday night, Horyn declined all comment, but detailed the banning in her blog, writing, "I don't really buy any of it, though — not the delay and certainly not the old-fashioned practice of restricting journalists [in a digital age] from shows." A year ago, Armani and the fashion critic had a spat over Horyn's description of a trouser style.*

*won't be the first great designer she's pissed off.

LOVE LAPO CHEAP&CHIC

Moschino turned to Lapo Elkann to get its message across about Love Moschino, formerly the Moschino Jeans line. "Lapo's advertising agency, Independent Ideas, is made up of a group of young, creative minds, more in line, I believe, with our final consumer, than more established agencies," said Moschino creative director Rossella Jardini.Elkann said he appreciates Moschino's irony and set about working on a message centered on love. To wit: He set up a lovemoschino.com site, and created a 2008 Love Calendar, with unique messages each month, plus a new advertising campaign. A new Web magazine, "Love News," will display "only good news from around the world," said Elkann.

I GUESS YOU GUESS

WHICH D-list TV star, who's famous for getting paid to party, distracts skirted ladies by pouring liquor down their throats as he gropes them? . . .

WHICH fashion designer is lying to her actor beau? While she proclaims her love for her man, New York insiders say she really prefers "butch Mexican and Latino women" . . .

WHICH sweetheart Oscar winner doesn't always have a heart as golden as her locks? She's known for introducing her best friend for 10 years as "my assistant" when around other Hollywood types.

The sobriety of which troubled starlet probably isn't being helped by the fact that her uncle deals weed out of the spare room in her mom's house?
