Britney to Launch Kids Clothing Line?

Filed under: Apparel, Celebrity Shopping

While nothing is official as of yet, Britney Spears is talking to Charlie Sheen about starting her own kids' clothing line. Apparently, Britney is such a fan of the line that she was inspired to collaborate with Sheen. The actor's Sheen Kidz line was founded last year, but is already growing in popularity, with distribution in well over one hundred stores. It started off as a sportswear line for girls, but has already expanded rapidly to include embellished casual wear. Sources say that the actor is receptive to working with Spears, who might be planning to add a boys' line to the collection.

Britney's Porsche Speedster

by Nicole Weston (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Luxury Cars & Autos, Celebrity Shopping

Britney Spears, possibly looking for a car that would get her away from the paparazzi quicker than her SUV, picked up a gorgeous, silver 1956 Porsche 356A Speedster this week. The classic car is the design that catapulted the Porsche into popularity in the US. The car looks like it's in prime condition and is probably worth in the neighborhood of $70,000, though it is certainly worth a lot in terms of style.

Of course, like so many young drivers, Brit doesn't know how to drive a manual transmission; the guy beside her is her instructor.

Filed under: Estates

Britney Spears has dropped the asking price on her New York penthouse yet again. The penthouse, which originally was listed at $6 million. The latest price is $4.55 million (last time I saw this place is was listed at $5.25 million). She originally bought the place, which had belonged to both Keith Richards and Russell Simmons for $3 million. The apartment has three bedrooms and is located in the Silk Building in East Greenwich village. I seem to recall that Britney never lived here and it looks like they have filled the apartment with generic furniture in order to make it seem more cozy. Listing pictures after the jump.

Britney's Baby Shopping

Filed under: Celebrity Shopping

Since we all now know that Britney Spears is pregnant again, it's no surprise to see that she's out buying some new baby things. At least, she's browsing for baby things because she doesn't yet know the gender of the baby. She headed out to Petit Tresor in Los Angeles to look at their elegant and adorable line of baby furniture. Britney's hoping for a girl, so you can be sure that she had her eyes on some of the frilly, girly designs in the boutique. For now, though, she kept her son, Sean Preston under wraps in a Carezza Minifur Blanket. The blanket is made of soft Italian yarn, in blue or pink, with sabbia suede on one side. Price: $149.
