Fashionista by Ashley David - Click for more from The ClotheshorseBloggers, beware! The industry giants have figured out that it’s time to make sense of that newfangled contraption known as the Internet. Forever21 may have jumped on the blogging bandwagon long ago, but now Barneys is following suit. Also, Karl Lagerfeld is launching a Chanel magazine.

Beanies, I spent this past week in sunny California (San Francisco, to be exact). While exploring The Haight, I came across Coco-luxe, the most darling coffee/chocolate shop. I ordered a peppermint mocha, and to my delight, received my drink in an all green cup with a paper straw. Now that is change I can believe in.

Louise Goldin for TopshopHow insanely badass are these Louise Goldin for Topshop shoes? DIE. They’re Spring ’10, so it’ll be a little while before we get our hands on them. Do you hear a DIY in the distance? I do.

Ain’t nobody going to slow Lindsay Lohan down. Just because Ungaro thinks she’s sucking the soul out of his company doesn’t mean she’s going to quiet her creative vision! She’s teaming up with Pascal Mouwad – he’s the guy behind Nicole Richie’s House of Harlow line, as well as Kelly Bensimon’s “Navajo-inspired” one – to work with “a friend [of LiLo and his] at bebe.”

Brangelina designs jewelry now. They’re working with Asprey. Wonder if they’ll try and make an “adopted baby” ring? I’m thinking eco-friendly/non-conflict diamonds – with proceeds going to Africa, of course.

Daphne GuinessDaphne Guiness wore the Alexander McQueen SS10 alien shoes. She didn’t fall. Color me impressed.

Want to steal Whitney Port’s look? She wrote about her makeup routine on her blog, claiming she does her own because they don’t have a makeup artist on The City. No wonder Roxy always looks like a hot tranny mess.

Speaking of Whitney, her BFF Lauren Conrad is writing a style guide. There’s no stopping the girl! First, a NY Times bestseller, now another endeavor. LC is on fire!

Sophie Theallet took home the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Award on Monday night. The prize, previously won by Alexander Wang and worth $200k, includes a year of mentoring. Personally, I was rooting for fellow greenie Natalie Chanin of Alabama Chanin to take home the gold – her reworked denim pieces are 2D4 (to die for).

Sea of Shoes’ Jane Aldridge, she of many shoes and many dollars, has come under fire for the comment she recently made. Girl’s allowed to have an opinion, but if there’s one way to sound like a snobby brat, this is certainly it. Glad to know she didn't actually drop out of school.

Elva FieldsI’m loving Elva Fieldsline of sustainable jewels. They’re made entirely out of repurposed vintage pieces, and they’re statement jewelry at it’s best. You can buy designer Emily Wheat Maynard’s line on her website – if you’re in NYC, Albertine carries it.

Zac Posen’s doing diffusion. A diffusion line, that is. It’s called Z Spoke, and it’ll launch exclusively at Saks come spring. The price point? Way reasonable – we’re talking prices that start at $78. Sign me up!

20 year old model Daul Kim was found dead in Paris on Thursday morning. The cause of death is unknown, but The Cut suspects it was suicide. Sad.

Looking for perfect holiday gifts? These cashmere scarves are shorn from free-range goats in Mongolia and are hand-loomed in Nepal. Perfection!

Getting married? Go short in this vegan leather wedding dress. Yes, it sounds all wrong – but believe me, it’s all right.
