Two years ago, New York Magazine explored the curious phenomenon of children-as-hipster-accessories.

Among the shocking discoveries - that kids don't like their parents' indie rock; that kids don't like their parents' wacky haircuts - there was also the notion that kids' clothing doesn't translate into the too-cool adult world, especially without an infant line from Urban Outfitters.

Bu all that is about to change, thanks to Ben Sherman.

The British sportswear brand just launched Ben Sherman Kids, a wee line that makes skinny jeans, stovepipe suits, and tons of houndstooth available to first graders.

They probably still won't like their moms' Sex Pistols albums, but oh well... the conversion from Spongebob to *Stellastarr has to start somewhere.

Our favorite How To Lose a Guy in 10 Days scene is Kate Hudson in the Conde Nast lobby, while Anne Hathaway's building in The Devil Wears Prada actually belonged to InStyle. And while Carrie Bradshaw really did get to work at Vogue in Sex and the City, most other TV "magazines" are somewhat fabricated.

The latest example can be seen this week at Marie Claire, where the crew of Lipstick Jungle is filming scenes with "editor" (or rather, actress) Kim Raver.

The fashion team has even called in clothes for a fake run-through on set, and editors have been instructed to ignore the myriad cameras that have essentially taken over the Hearst Building.

Will the upcoming scenes be more riveting than what happens in The Hills' fashion closet?

Well, obviously - except the Jen-Bunny-sex-tape-phone-call, which was so silly, it was indelible.

IMG's women's board is no stranger to rock royalty - besides Gemma, Daria, and Sasha, the agency titan also boasts Riley Keough (granddaughter of Elvis Presley) and Theodora Richards (daughter of Keith Richards).

Now we hear that Daisy Lowe, the face of Doc Martens and the daughter of rocker Gavin Rossdale (otherwise known as Mr. Gwen Stefani), is making the move from New York Model Management to IMG.

The model mothership couldn't comment when we called to ask about Daisy yesterday, but hopefully she'll be settled into a new home before Fashion Week, when the brunette bombshell is hotly hoped on the runways.

Those going through Daisy withdrawal until then might want to visit Henry Holland's online boutique - his raunchy GIVE US A BLOW / DAISY LOWE shirt is now available for those who enjoy a little shock value in their wardrobe.

Abercrombie & Fitch is launching its newest stab at the high-end market, lingerie line Gilly Hicks - but they're still using the same old tricks.

The promotional video, currently the only thing on the Gilly Hicks site, is replete with a gaggle of naked girls and boys, in true A+F style.

Models frolick on beaches and in the water, wearing only one piece of lingerie at a time. In fact, they're wearing so little, that the best view of the product comes from a shot of the clothesline, at left.

The brand arrives, with its own store in Boston, at the end of this month. You can watch the video on their site - if you can prove you're 18.

We're not sure the ad makes us want to ride the Chinatown bus to Boston and buy a new bra.

In fact, the only thing it makes us want to do is fly to Australia and take ours off.

We're not sure why Mr. Blackwell's annual list of the worst dressed celebrities is such a momentous feat.

The man behind it, born Richard Selzer in Brooklyn, transitioned from actor to fashion designer in the late-1950's, dressing everyone from Jayne Mansfield to Nancy Reagan. He was apparently the first fashion designer to show his collection on TV. (Was he also the last? We've never heard of such a thing, unless Blackwell birthed QVC.)

But when fashion changed dramatically in the 80's, Blackwell was unable to change, too, and thus turned into the bitter fashion critic better known for rhyming and alliteration than design or creativity.

Much like the worst-dressed pages at the end of US Weekly, Mr. Blackwell's list leaves us thinking, "Good for her for rocking that outfit!" It'd be funny to see Mr. Blackwell rate the runway shows - he'd surely disapprove of our favorite McQueen creations and flip out over this spring's Balenciaga.

We might not be able to wear vintage like Mary-Kate or Herve Leger like Posh, but we like to think that if given the chance we'd take as many fashion risks as they do.

And if we ever are in the public eye, we might actually rejoice in making it on his worst-dressed list every once in awhile - at least we'd know we had lived (fashionably speaking).

*bonus points if you know who said the title...

Stylist Lori Goldstein needs an intern, like now.

If you can handle:

1. Managing the office

2. Checking in/out clothes

3. Following up on every detail imaginable

4. Keeping cool when major designers/celebrities call

Then send an e-mail to Rebecca.Grice@gmail.com with "Fashion Intern" in the subject line.

(Also, you must live in NYC, and actual fashion experience is preferred!)

And if/when Lori decides you're not a total psycho, she'll let you assist her on shoots - think Vogue Italia and V.

Bonne chance!

WHICH socialite/sometimes editor threw a tantrum at a trendy boutique when informed that the credit card she was trying to use was unsigned? Instead of signing the card (it was definitely hers), she fiddled on her Blackberry and gave the cashier a death stare after refusing to make eye contact with anyone. Luckily (or not?) she was recognized, and so was able to purchase the clothes...

There are certain places we expect to see rip-offs of Stams, Goyards, Balenciaga motorcycle bags etc. - like the carts on Broadway in Soho for $40, not on not well-respected shopping sites selling for almost $1000.

The bag on the far left, by Italian designer Giorgio Brato, is great - roomy, simple, basic. We like it.

But we've been liking it for almost two years - since YSL debuted the Downtown Bag and everyone from Demi Moore to half of the Upper East Side slung it over their shoulder.

The Downtown's shape, both chic and large, is very distinct - it's the reason we found it appealing in the first place. Brato's version might lack the three gold buttons and side buckles from the YSL, but it's essentially the same bag, and yet for only a couple of hundred dollars less - why buy the knock-off when you can actually afford the original?

The bag's web page says, "Please note: Each Giorgio Brato creation is a unique work of art."

We beg to differ.

"A good rule of thumb in making fashion choices is never to purchase something Lindsay Lohan is wearing." - a quote on NYmag.com's shiny leggings trend story, from reader Amsterdammer.

With spring fashion weighing heavy on our minds, we're dying to cover ourselves in flowers already.

But since it's not yet spring (and we don't think we could spend the needed cash on Balenciaga), we have to find other ways to satisfy our floral desires.

So we're going to try with this Origami Tulip Ring, from LeeLoo studio.

It's bright, it's handmade, and the tulip itself is actual origami paper under resin, which we just think is really impressive.

It's the perfect nod to outdoor weekend brunches that seem so, so far away.

At the bottom of our old Caboodle lives a massive jar of MAC Silver Dusk, (a legitimate must-have from high school). We unearthed it this weekend for the first time in years, despite second thoughts of looking too "junior-high".

We swept some across our eyelids and cheekbones, mostly because we were sick all of last week and needed to look a little more alive. We're feeling much better now - and yet we're still using the sparkles.

Now, we're dying to bust out our old Hard Candy eye liner. It's pink with giant squares of actual glitter, a look we haven't rocked since 8th grade dances. We're dying to line our eyes with it some night this week. But is that ok?

Erin Fetherston, Zac Posen and Christian Dior were just a few of the Spring Runways to feature a glittery eye. But we're a 23 year old who's not prancing down a runway on her way to work (ok, maybe we are, but it's only in our head).

So we have to ask, are we too old to wear glitter?
