Emanuel Ungaro Thinks Lindsay Lohan's Fashion Collaboration is a Disaster

Upon seeing the pictures from Lindsay Lohan's first collection as Ungaro's "artistic adviser", Emanuel Ungaro was far from pleased. Ungaro sold the fashion house that shares his name in 2005 and hasn't had any contact with the label since then. At a film festival in Lisbon, he was asked what he thought about the collection.

Ungar said:

"Lindsay Lohan's collaboration was a disaster. I am furious but I can't do anything about it. Ungaro is in the process of losing its soul. That happens to a lot of designers. We were the creators and patrons, responsible for the creation and destiny of our houses. But when we gave up our houses, we gave up our souls."

Well, at least they didn't pay her. Rumor is, she works for them for free.

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.

Elizabeth Hasselbeck to Create New Line of Maternity NFL Apparel

Until now, pregnant football fans have been relegated to purchasing oversized men's t-shirts to show their support of the sport. But now, "View" host Elizabeth Hasselbeck has teamed up with the NFL and Reebok to create a new line of football jerseys especially for pregnant women.

Hasselback, a footballer's wife herself who also happens to be pregnant, said:

“The NFL has a tremendous amount of female fans. Watching a game can be a real family bonding experience, and I can tell you that the women behind the games are truly the most intense of the fans.”

The new shirts will feature sayings such as "Kicker" and "#1 Draft Pick" across the belly. The shirts will retail for $15 to $17.50, and will launch not this year, but during the fall 2010 football season.
