These earphones are ever so feminine and sounds as extraordinary as they look.

No one loves the look of his name on products more than MJ. Bring back the 90's with these retro styled headphones.

Miuccia keeps these headphones plush, old school, and most importantly luxurious. These don't have crazy embellishments just the Prada stamp of approval on the sides.

This is Gaga's second collab for Beats by Dre. These aren't are design centric as her first but she still reminds you that these bad boys have a little Gaga edge.

Just like most of DVF's designs these are understated yet elegant with a pop of print.

These don't come under a luxury label but you have to admit that these are super cute. Definitely not for the shy.

LINKAGE: Style 

Thowing up the tents in Bryant Park!

Rocking out the Ports 1961 invitation scarf and showing off some of the Fashion Week invites. Be jealous.

If you were in Brooklyn Heights today and heard techno beats blaring, it was most likely coming from the Fashion Indie office. With Fashion Week only three days away, we can hardly contain our excitement! Although many of you won’t be able to join us at the tents, you can look forward to the Fashion Indie crew bringing the tents to you! Prepare to mark Fashion Indie as your homepage, because Friday marks a week of extensive Fashion Week coverage. From runway rundowns to event reviews and moments of style to celebrity run-ins, Fashion Indie is brining everything Fall/Winter 2009 to a computer near you! We don’t mean to rub it in, but here are just a few of the shows we will be attending: William Rast, Charlotte Ronson, Vivienne Tam, Venexiana, Ports 1961, Nicole Miller, Rad Hourani, Jillian Lewis, Ilana Sunderland, Laura Dawson and Barbara Tfank. In addition to the shows we received invites to, expect immediate coverage from all of your mainstream and indie designers! 

Thanks for the photo NY Mag! 

Vivienne Tam and Hewlett-Packard today are unveiling what might be the first laptop computer designed for women.

The HP Mini Vivienne Tam Edition, which costs $700, is small, lightweight and colorful. Its red and pink peony injected plastic print exterior matches Tam’s spring clothing, and it will be sold at the Vivienne Tam store in Manhattan’s SoHo neighborhood in the spring. In the meantime, it is available for pre-order through HP, and will ship in early December. A plain version in black, pink or silver will also be available in November.

The laptop weighs two pounds, has an almost full-size keyboard (92 percent) with a red inside.

Thanks WWD

Fashion and technology are joining forces this fashion week with the fusion of “China Chic & HP.” Vivienne Tam is creating a limited-edition computer with Hewlett Packard. This isn’t the first time a top American designer has collaborated on a PC; previously, Vera Wang designed skins for HP laptops.

To celebrate the venture, Tam will host a party at her Mercer Street store on September 9, following her Spring 2009 show at Bryant Park.

Next up, Marc Jacobs and Apple, or was that wishful thinking?

Thanks FashionWeekDaily.

Vivienne Tam is taking her modern designs to the web by partnering with Stardoll, the online entertainment site for teens. Beginning today, Stardoll’s 18 million members, comprised mostly of fashion-obsessed 9-17 year olds, will be able to purchase custom Vivienne Tam designs to help ensure their “MeDoll” avatars remain members of the virtual fashion elite.

Vivienne Tam has decided to join the Stardoll network as their newest designer. Stardoll is an online site dedicated to the use of teens; it’s a place where they can create their own virtual fashions with Stardoll’s software and share it with other people within the network. Vivienne will be judging an online contest pertaining to the fashions created by the sites devoted users. A boutique will be opening where Vivienne’s virtual fashions will be put on sale for buyers’ avatars to steal the stage with stylish charm.
