Instead of looking to their wrists to find out the time, today many people instead pull out their cell phones which are synced with satellites and are more likely to be accurate. Watches, however, still have a very special place in the digital age. While they still tell us the time, watches now are more of a status piece than ever. They are a reflection of our personal style and wealth, and a great accessory to polish up almost any outfit. Finding the perfect watch can be quite a chore. Recently, we were introduced to Michele Watches, which offers watches in both men's and women's styles and are seen on the wrists of Hollywood starlets to business professionals and everyone else in between.

Michele Watches was founded by Jack Barouh, the son of a German watchmaker, Maurice Barouh, who passed on his passion for quality craftsmanship and an expression of style to his son. Michele Watches was launched with the birth of Jack's first child, Michele. At first they created children's watches and expanded from there.

It was developed in collaboration with Yves Cassar and Pascal Guarin, and its notes include cardamom, black peppercorn, fig, lavender, leatherwood, patchouli, vetiver and musk. This Eau de Toilette is available in a 75ml bottle for $32. Also available is the Patrick Dempsey Unscripted Body Wash ($9.00) and the Patrick Dempsey Unscripted After Shave Conditioner ($9.50).

Liam Gallagher is joining the fashion ranks. The singer of Oasis has started a fashion label called Pretty Green which announced its launch yesterday. The name is taking from a song from fellow English legend Paul Weller's band "The Jam".

Gallagher stated about the project:

"The reason I'm doing it is I like clothes. We're going to do clothes I like, if people like it cool if they don't, they don't!," declared the singer in a video interview on Prettygreen.com

He added: "If you're going to do it, you've got to get involved and I'm looking forward to it, and I think it's going to be good."

On Pretty Green's YouTube Channel, which the video of launch is posted below, they describe the line as:

An up-front, straight talking, classic clothing range owned, founded and designed by Liam Gallagher.

The clothing range, which is entirely 'limited edition', will include classic designs across footwear, denim, jackets, trench coats, parkas, t-shirts, knitwear, hats, scarves and accessories; all subject to Liam's final approval.

Pretty Green members will be invited to an exclusive online pre-sell before the official launch in June.

LeBron James has got game and style according to GQ Magazine. The mens fashion magazine has selected the Cleveland Cavaliers superstar for the cover of for the February installment of the magazine. James told reporters yesterday at the Cavaliers training facility:

"It's great," he said of his GQ cover. "It shows that I'm fashionable. I never thought I would be on the cover of GQ. But I've done some things I never thought I would do."

James been on countless magazines dating all the way back in high school when he graced the cover of Sports Illustrated. Last year, his cover shoot for Vogue sparked outrage as some felt the images were a bit racist. Nothing like this time around as James dons only a sharp suit and tie. King James believes that that in order to play good, one needs to look good. Whatever he is doing its working and hopefully he can look good all the way through the NBA Finals.

Hip-hop artist Kanye West is about to embark upon a venture into the fashion industry, and will reportedly launch his own sneaker designs with the luxury brand Louis Vuitton.

West also said that he would love to design clothes for President-elect Barack Obama.

The opening of the very first Topshop store in the U.S. has been delayed. The New York store is set to be the very first flagship store outside of the UK, where the chain originates, and was initially slated to open this fall.

Earlier this month it was reported that the store wouldn't open until November due to some construction problems, but now that's been pushed back even further.

A source revealed that the opening has been pushed back til spring because Topshop doesn't want to open up during the sale period after Christmas, or during bad weather in January or February. So NYC fashionistas will get their first taste of the British import this spring.

In the meantime, Americans can shop Topshop online. This month Topshop launched a transactional website for US shoppers, located at topshopus.com.

Topshop is perhaps best known for their collection of fashionable, yet affordable, women's clothing, although they do have a men's line known as "Topman". Kate Moss has designed a collection for the retail chain, which has brought them further interest and acclaim abroad.

Old Navy is trying to change its image. The company is looking to attract a twenty-something audience. The first sign of this attempt is the company coming up with a brand new logo that they hope will freshen up their new look. The changes won't only be superficial. The clothing that the company designs will also get a revised look.

"Things are looking up," said Mark Montagna, a senior analyst with CL King & Associates told Adage.com. "Since [Old Navy President] Dawn Robertson arrived in late 2006, the decisions she's made operationally, with marketing and merchandising, have been the right decisions. Everything has been moving forward."

Old Navy wants to lose the image of a discount brand with the new look.

Mark Littell, a former Major League Baseball pitcher with the Kansas City Royals and Seattle Mariners in the 1970's and 1980's, is pitching something new these days: the Nutty Buddy athletic cup. Littell says that he's come up with a better cup, and is willing to prove it.

In a clever marketing pitch, Littell has taken a video of himself getting hit right between the legs with a pitching machine at a very close range. The video has already amassed more than 50,000 views, and has inspired others to make similar videos.

Littell claims that it is more comfortable and does a better job at protecting than traditional cups as it is closer shaped to the male anatomy. Priced at $20, the Nutty Buddy is also twice as expensive as the regular ones.

Littell reports to having sold about 3,500 online, and is looking to sign a deal with Bike Athletic.
