Koreanpop star, G-Dragon, has collaborated with Tokyo-based jewelry brand Ambush to create a special series of accessories in celebration of the artist’s birthday and approaching album entitled “One of a Kind.” The collection will include a limited number  of 88 pieces which will consist of  pins, rings, hats, belts and necklaces. According to recent reports, only eight pieces will be made for the more elaborate and decorative hexagonal neck piece — a gesture that ties in with G-Dragon’s lucky number. Releasing will be at select AMBUSH locations. Thoughts? Worthy or not?

Apparently, the first thing Tyra Banks learned at Harvard, was how to be ruthless. The super-model and mogul is cleaning house at America’s Next Top Model. She has fired the fierce Miss J and his walk. Also out is the long time host of the show, Mr. Jay and Nigel Barker, the renowned photographer. There have been countless attempts to recreate the success of Tyra’s modeling reality tv show and yet none have been nearly as successful . Some would argue that its the talent (cast-judges) that has made America’s Next Top Model, a mega franchise. Miss J, chief among the judges, has branded the show with the fierceness of her walk and his gender bending, characteristic vamp. After 9 years of faithful service, Tyra has dismissed the personalities and talent that arguably made America’s Next Top Model, a mega success.

From Tyra’s perspective, AMNTM has grown a bit stale. Any show with the same cast, for nearly 9 years, is likely to bore it’s audience. TV shows must evolve and AMNTM has certainly experienced a decline as it has essentially preserved the original formula that initiated it’s success. Tyra, wants the show to go in a new direction. She wants to incorporate new personalities from the social media landscape; bloggers, web stars and the web’s organically grown fashion experts. Ooor, maybe Ms. J pissed Tyra off?

Worthy Readers, how do you feel about Tyra’s decision?

Mulberry has released it’s Lana Del Rey Bag early, due to overwhelming demand. The Mulberry purse was planned for a Fall release but interest in the accessory has pressured the company into an early release. Limited quantities have already gone on sale in London and New York. A general release is planned on May 14. The Fashion Magazine “Elle”, recently took a swipe at the bag’s namesake, singer and songwriter, Lana Del Rey. They described her as the “least established star for which a luxury good had ever been named”. The relative newcomer to the pop world has released songs like “Born To Die” and “Video Games” and has found tremendous success in the UK and Australia. Her influences range from Brittany Spears to Kurt Cobain. However obscure “Elle” considers her music to be, Mulberry has struck fashion gold with her new handbag. The rumored retail price for Lana Del Rey’s Mulberry Bag, is $1000.
