Saint Honoré "The Line Watch" By CharlElie

When you are an artist you don't need to make sure all your lines are straight. In fact, that is sort of the whole point of its "oops I hit a bump while applying my lipstick" style vertical racing stripe white line on the new Saint Honore watch. Or perhaps this is what lane dividers look like when you are drunk? Joking aside, the artful concept of this watch is pleasant.

Designed by artist ChalElie, this watch is expressionist art. The point of the straight vertical line is to comment on the path-like nature of time. Always moving in one direction. While it might also seem to be constant, it is really moving in the same direction all the time. Around the dial of the watch is a round line. This other white line symbolizes our circular interpretation of the time. Both concepts are equally sound for our lives, and both represented on the dial. The watch is mostly black with white and yellow-orange accents. An interesting piece, and also available as a limited edition only.

While Saint Honore hasn't disclosed the size of the watch, the steel square case is PVD black coated and curved for comfort. It has double sapphire crystals (front and back), as well as decorated Swiss ETA 2824 automatic movement inside. The Saint Honore The Line watch will be available as a limited edition of just 125 pieces to celebrate the125th anniversary of the brand.

The Row by Ashley Olsen

The Olsen twins already have their own fashion line for younger girls at Wal-Mart and they aged-up their image a bit by modeling for designers earlier this year. Now, Ashley Olsen is planning to launch her own designer line of clothing, called The Row at some point in the not-too-distant future, as indicated by the fact that she appeared in a piece of her own design over the weekend: the cropped tartan jacket, pictured. We will have to wait to see whether the girls' taste for shapeless, heavy clothes carries into the line and onto the runway. Anyone else wonder why Mary Kate doesn't seem to be joining in the venture?

Sienna Miller, the actress and ex of Jude Law, is taking her fashion sense to the masses - and by masses, we mean Pepe Jeans. The 24 year old up-and-coming style icon has been seen not only in the gossip pages, but on the cover of Vogue. She has a contract with Pepe to be the "face and body" of their jeans, and her super-skinny frame fits the style of the moment. Unfortunately, a fashion insider told the Mirror that the "jeans will be her own unique designs and ... even though she is ultra-skinny, her jeans will be made to flatter most sizes." Don't they know that is precisely what got Jessica into trouble with her Princy line?
