These days, celebs left and right are slapping their names on fashion lines—Rachel Bilson, Lindsay Lohan, Jessica Simpson, Hilary Duff, Gwen Stefani, even Sheree of The Real Housewives of Atlanta (although I don’t know that I’d classify her as a celebrity.) I’d bet half of them can’t even sketch or sew.

Most recently, Lindsay Lohan made her debut as “artistic designer” for Emanuel Ungaro. She collaborated with an experienced designer but was still met with tepid reviews.

Jessica Simpson has been in the game for a while now. Personally, I think her line makes some fabulous shoes and I’ve purchased a few pairs myself. Simpson also has an accessories line that includes great costume jewelry (I own and wear frequently a few pairs of their large hoop earrings) and big, colorful bags. Most recently, she’s introduced dress and luggage lines and I believe there’s some lingerie on the horizon.

I spotted Hilary Duff’s line, Femme for DKNY, in a magazine and was impressed. Not too surprising, because she does have a great personal style. When I wrote my post on scarves, she was one of the celebs who immediately came to mind. Girlfriend is always rocking a scarf and once even got creative and used a tablecloth! As far as her line goes, I’d love to have that fringed top.

Sheree’s line, She by Sheree, was renamed something more colorful by her critics -which was too unlady like to say here but you can use your imagination.

Who would you like to see come out with a fashion line? I love Rihanna’s style so I’d be curious to see what she would come up with.
