What would one think when they glance up in New York City and take in a three-part billboard that reads “Happiness comes from inside. I’m working on it.” Now, imagine an appealing model taking his pants off for a grizzly bear. That very headline is featured on a photo of a pretty boy, and a bear, styled with a watch. We know gorilla arms were all the rage on the runways this year, as designers such as Dolce & Gabbanna stylized their models with fluffy arms, but really? Although the ad’s message is unclear, for it appears inappropriate, and perhaps even scary, it may inspire people to go buy a pair of expensive Diesel jeans. Either way, it’s getting everyone’s attention.

Notorious for four letter words and a bad girl attitude, artist Lily Allen is noted for pairing dresses with high top sneakers, and rhyming about drinks, drugs, and dudes. Thus, the always independent Allen managed to shock the public when she was named as the new face of Chanel. Not only that, but it was to be photographed by famed Karl Lagerfeld. Many seemed skeptical, but heads turned when the campaign was released. Lily is all grown up, and channels the famed Audrey Hepburn well. Tiara-bedecked Allen has fully transformed into the face of Chanel handbags in an ever-so-chic fashion. She managed to pair her cuteness with an everlasting glamour to give Chanel a great campaign, adorable while still posh.

Rumors have been swirling that the popular gaming system was going to become handheld. Microsoft Corporate VP Shane Kim revealed today that an Xbox portable is indeed on its way, he’s just not sure when. Kim said it will take time, as the company is focusing on creating a service in Live that can include capabilities such as HD.

Levi’s has unveiled their Fall 2009 Vintage Collection and it can make even the innocent look guilty. The line is inspired by the struggles of the life of a convict, and their hopes of freedom. During the 20′s and 30′s, prisoners did not bare orange jumpsuits, but rather, denim. The typical uniform included overalls, white vests, and T-shirts. In the current economic downturn, the rebirth of prison denim seems almost fitting. Is this a good move for Levi’s? You decide.
