Britney's Candies Ads Are Out!
Filed under: CELEBRITY STYLE, Celebrity, News
We told you last month that Britney is the new face of Candies, and, unsurprisingly, she's the body, too. And what a body! We're sure there was some airbrushing involved -- when is there not? -- but Britney looks young, fresh, and sexy. See for yourself!
Celeb Fashion Lines
These days, no self respecting celebrity can hold her (or his) head up in Hollywood without a clothing, shoe, handbag, or home furnishings line to call their own. But are these stars really qualified to add designer to their resume? StyleList puts them to the test. First up...
Celeb:Taylor Swift
Fashion Line: L.E.I. Sundresses by Taylor Swift
Qualifications:The young country singer is releasing a line of frocks this February that her die-hard fans will love and moms can afford. We're sure Swift's brand will expand into denim.

Celeb: Dita Von Teese
Fashion Line: Science of Sexy for Wonderbra
Qualifications: This burlesque bombshell spends most of her time in scanty skivvies, so we're absolutely confident she is capable of creating amazing lingerie! Of her '40s and '50s-inspired line Von Teese says "Underwear isn't just something that you put on for your lover -- you wear it for you."

Celeb: Lauren Bush
Fashion Line:Lauren Pierce (hits stores in Spring 2009)
Qualifications: An alum of both Parsons New School for Design in NYC and Central Saint Martins College in London, first niece and former model Lauren Bush definitely has a solid design foundation. Add to that an internship at Zac Posen, a boyfriend with a designer dad (her main squeeze is Ralph Lauren's son) and the success of the popular FEED bags she designed to benefit the U.N.'s World Food Program, and it looks like Ms. Bush has the chops to make her ready-to-wear sustainable fabrics line a hit.

Celeb: Eva Mendes
Fashion Line: Vida for Macy's
Qualifications: Calvin Klein's latest controversial ad campaigns features a naked Eva Mendes rolling around on a bed, so perhaps her new venture isn't really all that surprising. The actress and her boyfriend, film producer George Augusto, are launching a collection of sheets and comforters. While neither has any design background, we're betting the betting the lovebirds know how to make a cozy nest.

Celeb: Mischa Barton
Fashion Line: Mischa Barton for Stacey Lapidus
Qualifications:The former O.C. star gets more ink these days for her hair accessories than her acting jobs so maybe this is a brilliant career move: She's coming out with a line of headbands made from a wide array of materials including silk, feathers and crystals, ranging in price from $40-$200.

Celeb: Janet Jackson
Fashion Line:Pleasure Principle
Qualifications:Named after her 1987 hit, the fancy pants (and matching bras) will all retail for under $40. "There's something for every woman, and that's very important to us," Jackson says. "I've always hated when lingerie is uncomfortable, so the fit and comfort was key." Nothing nasty about that, Miss Jackson.

Celeb: Lenny Kravtiz
Fashion Line: Inspired by Lenny, Worn by You at Kohls
Qualifications:Hmmm, we're not sure that even Lenny's biggest fans would be inspired to wear this denim, fringe and wings ensemble, but fortunately for those who do want to emulate the the rocker's style, his jeans and t-shirts line for Kohls is a bit more traditional.

Celeb: Tara Reid
Fashion Line: Manta
Qualifications:Sometimes an actress, always a party girl, and now a designer. According to Reid her little triangles of Lycra are more than simple poolside attire, "It's about putting into the universe what you want in life: Red means love, pink is friendship, green is lucky, black is protection. You're gonna have a story when you wear this bikini or when you put this dress on: You'll either get love or meet a new friend or you might meet a guy." Big promises from little bikinis!

Celeb: Katie Holmes
Fashion Line: Holmes/Yang for Giorgio Armani
Qualifications: Mrs. Tom Cruise created her own storm at the LA premiere of "Tropic Thunder," debuting the first piece from her collection with stylist pal Jeanne Yang. But given the dress's sleek lines and navy blue fabric two Giorgio Armani trademarks it's a good bet that Katie got more than a little help from her silver-haired mentor.

Celeb: La Lohan
Fashion Line: 6126 Leggings
Qualifications:Lindsay Lohan's collection owes its name to Marilyn Monroe born on 6/1/26 but it doesn't look like she captured what made the '50s bombshell so sexy. Does the modern American woman really need leopard print "ankle gloves"? Or glimmer leggings? Seems like La Lohan is channeling no one but...Lindsay.

I think she looks fabulous but the campaign is a bit boring for me. I loved the Jenny McCarthy campaign as crass as it was!

Crazy, She is young and can bounce back you know. Whether or not if she is airbrused, I'd give away the farm (if I had one) to look like that for even a few minutes. It's Britney Bitch and she says it with confidence and style. Britney, you go girl. See you this Thursday at the staples center. Cheers, we Mommies stick together, Michelle N. from Corona, Ca.

Well.. yea, she looks pretty darn good, except it's completely air brushed!

Britney? Worst idea EVER! I as an 18 yr old, I liked Duff better. Who cares if she stepped out of the lime light, she WAY better than a mentally unstable baby maker. Who is not fit to even SEE her kids much less raise them. I'v seen better crack dealers with better backgrounds than Britany. Sux, I REALLY liked that brand, now, knowing the idiot is wearing it? I DON'T wanna be caught ANYWHERE in that crap.

No, she didn't work hard to get that body, some poor underpaid person at a computer with photoshop loaded up did the hard work to get her body to look like that.

Wow, AOL. Advertise much? Very blatant product placement in this fashion "news." Candies paid for this 100%.

I have to agree... she does look great but... I have a hard time believing that's her body. Now I can understand retouching a blemish or two but to make her abs look like that, that's going a bit to far!!! Last time I saw a picture of Brit which was about 2 weeks ago, her body DIDN'T look like that so yeah, that's why I'm having a hard time believing it's hers. Now when she comes out ON CAMERA looking like that, then and only then is when I'll believe it but I do have to give props to the person who retouched the photos because in them, she does look amazing!! Peace
