Hervé Léger teams with Avon to create new fragrances

Always wanted that Hervé Léger dress, but just couldn't get yourself to fork out that much cash?

Well now, Hervé Léger fans can get a piece of the brand through our favourite door-to-door marketing brand, Avon.

Hervé, which is owned by the BCBG Max Azria Group, will be launching two new perfumes this fall: Hervé Léger Femme and Hervé Léger Homme. Though the brand is fairly upscale, it has recently been trying to reach to a more accessible audience (see: Miley Cyrus and Max Azria's Wal-Mart collection).

Avon has tried to make itself more fashion-conscious, especially with its mark. collection, who has signed Twilight's Ashley Grenne as former ambassador Lauren Conrad's replacement. The brand also produces fragrances for Christian Lacroix, Emanuel Ungaro and Cynthia Rowley, and will also be launching Fergie's new fragrance, Outspoken.

So enjoy the luxury of the brand, for a fraction of a price. Besides, what is a woman (or man) without her perfume?

Vampire Diaries' Katerina Graham loves her heavy metal; 2nd annual Golden Globes Party Saluting Young Hollywood

Last night, Vampire Diaries star, Katerina Graham sported gorgeous spiked ring overtop black leather gloves at InStyle's 2nd annual Golden Globes party saluting Young Hollywood.

But this isn't the first time the 20-year-old actress has sported some extravagant jewelry: she wore a rectangular rhinestoned number at The Lovely Bones premiere on December 7th, and wore the spiked ring at Variety's 3rd Annual Power of Youth Event on December 5th.

The spikes have been a popular pick for the fashion savvy, including Rihanna's Christian Louboutin shoes at the VEVO Launch, and her numerous spiked outfits and Fergie's dress at the Grammy concert.

So my question is, should this potentially dangerous trend be limited to jewelry only, or would you rock it like Rihanna and Fergie...or just avoid it altogether?

Tweet me your thoughts @TheChicSpot, and check out more pictures for the Young Hollywood event below!

The Fashionably Challenged: Fergie

Fergie arrived at the Los Angeles International Airport on Sunday in an electric blue and black ensemble.

I'm okay with the colour combo and the pants, but those glasses?! More suited for Gaga!

MMVA Drama: Perez Hilton vs. Will.I.Am

Drama went down at the MMVA afterparties last night between blogger, Perez Hilton and Will.I.Am of the Black Eyed Peas.

Hilton is accusing Black Eyed Peas manager, Liborio "Polo" Molina, of punching him in the face numerous times, after a verbal altercation between the blogger and Will.I.Am.

Will, however, is claiming that a fan punched Hilton.

Toronto police have charged Molina with assault, and he is due to appear in court on August 5.

According to Perez, in his official statement, the drama started when Fergie approached Perez at Ultra, asking him why he was writing negative things about her and the band. Perez supposedly explained that he was just being objective, and that it was all just "silly."

Later on in the night, Perez went to Cobra nightclub for another afterparty.

According to the blogger, Will came into the club at aroudn 2:30 in the morning, approached Perez and said, Yo, I need you to do me a favor. I need you to never write about my band on your web site again."

Hilton declined, and after the conversation escalated, the admitted to calling Will.I.Am a homophobic slur.

When Hilton went outside, he saw Will and his entourage, and that's when he was punched in the face by Polo, causing him to bleed.

Perez called the police, but also took to Twitter as a cry for help.

"I'm in shock. I need the police ASAP. Please come to the SoHo Metropolitan Hotel now. Please."

He posted shortly thereafter, "I was assaulted by will.I.Am of the Black Eyed Peas and his security guards. I am bleeding. Please, I need to file a police report. No joke," said his tweet.

Will.I.Am tried to set the record straight with a video blog today, claiming that a fan attacked Hilton.

"One of the fans gets all like crazy and they like start some stuff with Perez Hilton. And I'm sitting there just minding my own business waiting for a car and what not, but it just goes to show you how crazy things can get. It's not that serious. It's all music and opinion. People make a career from opinion, which is cool, but don't be disrespectful about it. And fans, don't get all crazy about it," he said.

He also created his own twitter account to set the record straight.

"i just made a twitter account because it isnt cool for someone to blame you and blast you with lies..." he tweeted. "this is dude is crazy...he will go to any length to get press... wow...!!!!"

Further, Will made another video blog in response to Perez's official statement.

"I hit you Perez? Come on dude, I didn't hit you," he said. "And this is very wrong that you are twitting that I did that. Once again, disrespecting me and everything that I stand for...and that's wrong. Shame on you, shame on your behaviour, and that's just messed up."

One of my sources who was at Cobra tells me that it was indeed, Polo, who attacked Hilton, not a fan. But we'll see what happens!

WWD is reporting today that designers Dean and Dan Caten of DSquared2 have designed the costumes for Britney Spears's upcoming Circus tour!

The twin designers from Canada are no strangers to big-named celebrities; they sent Rihanna down their runway a few years ago, and have appeared in Fergie's "Clumsy" video.

The pair is said to have "reinterpreted clowns, trapeze artists and jugglers into a series of provocative looks for Spears and her dancers."

“We are enormous fans of Britney, and have been waiting for the perfect moment to collaborate with her,” the two told the paper. “It’s going to be wild.”

Britney's tour kicks off this Tuesday in New Orleans.

Can't wait to see how the costumes turn out!

Fashion Rocks 08 - Rihanna does Vogue, OneRepublic performs with PCD, Chris Brown gets tired and music's favourite women stand up to cancer.

"Fashion Rocks" 2008 aired on CBS last night, and it was a fabulous show jam-packed with great fashion, entertaining performances, and sexy celebs.

The theme was significant eras in music and fashion, and several big-name artists channeled celebrities from a different generation.

Rihanna did an incredible performance of Madonna's "Vogue," clad in an outfit suitable for the Copa Cobana.

Beyonce performed as Etta James, singing "At Last," along with a motown mix with Justin Timberlake, Mary J Blige and Kid Rock. Fergie was Blondie, the Black Eyed Peas did the Rolling Stones (in the most incredible outfits!), Timbaland created a medley for OneRepublic, Chris Cornell, and the Pussycat Dolls, and Chris Brown sang Sam Cooke before singing his hit single, "Forever." He did so much dancing, that he seemed to run out of air at the end of the performance, but it was still well-done, nonetheless.

The special moment of the night though, was the closing performance. As a tribute to the "Stand Up for Cancer" campaign, fifteen of the hottest women in the music industry collaborated to sing a song called "Just Stand Up."

The song features vocals from Mariah Carey, Beyonce, Mary J. Blige, Rihanna, Fergie, Sheryl Crow, Miley Cyrus, Melissa Etheridge, Ashanti, Natasha Bedingfield, Keyshia Cole, Ciara, Leona Lewis, LeAnn Rimes and Carrie Underwood.

All the women sported a "Stand Up for Cancer" tee, but what I loved was that even though they were unified, they each wore the shirt their own way, to complement their own personal style.

All in all, the entire event was exciting, entertaining, and very fashion-forward.

Check out some of the performances below!

P.S. Did anyone see Taylor Momsen's apperance last night? Thoughts?

Fergie shoes

Fergie can now add shoe designer to her resume. The singer unveiled her collection at the World Shoe Accessories show in Las Vegas on Monday.

The collection is a collaboration with Brown Shoe, and ranges from gladiator sandals to vibrant platforms and sporty kicks.

"I have always loved fashion because it's a great way to express your mood. And I'm definitely a shoe lover," said Fergie. "The right pair of shoes can change the feel of an outfit, and even change how a woman feels about herself. A woman can wear confidence on her feet with a high stiletto, or slip into weekend comfort with a soft ballet flat."

The collection will debut in Spring 2009.

Will you be buying Fergie's shoes?

Actress turned singer number 507.

Hayden Panettiere, the young actress in Heroes, has decided to focus on her singing career. Her first single was set to be digitally released on August 5, but was first played on Ryan Seacrest's radio show.

The song, called "Wake Up Call," will be promoted by Candies, who will absorb the "majority of the cost" of the single, which includes a music video, print campaign, and a multi-million dollar ad buy on cable and network TV.

If you recall, this is very similar to Fergie's "Big Girls Don't Cry" video, where you see Fergie styled by Candies, and hanging up her Candies underwear to dry.

"Wake Up Call," is described as a "reggae-flavoured pop song" by Ken Bunt, a senior VP of marketing for Hollywood Records, the label that will be releasing her debut album in 2009.

The song isn't terrible, but nothing spectacular either. The style doesn't seem to really suit Hayden.
