Is getting a lipstick named after you the new replacement for getting your own bag?

Stila’s following in the footsteps of Behnaz Sarafpour/Gucci Westman and Tinsley/Dior, and giving the Marchesa girls their own lipstick shades.

After doing the makeup for Marchesa’s last four seasons, Stila’s finally let Georgina and Keren try their hand at picking out some colors for the face.

The Georgina will be a sheer red, the Keren’s a nude color, and the very fall-appropriate berry is named after Talia Shobrook, the makeup artist who helped create Backstage Beauty Collection, the limited-edition line Stila’s made using the colors from Marchesa’s Fall 2008 show.

The Marchesa lipsticks are permanent additions for Stila, retailing at $22 each.

Look for them in seriously every magazine ever come August - Stila is a well-known beauty editor favorite.

Every once in a while, Fashionista emerges from weekend rehab to share something amazing.

This weekend is one of those times.

The August issue of Harper’s Bazaar has finally arrived, and with it comes something so deftly funny, so seemingly bizarre, and so unbelievably cool that we have to wonder if Glenda Bailey hasn’t become some sort of mad genius.

She’s commissioned Julius Preite to illustrate The Simpsons at various fall Fashion Week shows, and to create a cartoon Linda Evangelista to accompany them.

Among the highlights:

Lisa trading in her pearl necklace for something from Alber Elbaz.

Homer dressed as Karl Lagerfeld.

Bart in the front row of Louis Vuitton.

Enjoy, and huge thanks to Jazzi for tipping us off.

TopShop and the New Generation initiative just announced their fall Fashion Week picks, and here are the kids whose shows will be funded:

Christopher Kane (Versace consultant and Carine darling…)
Danielle Scutt (our new favorite eccentric, at left…)
Duro Olowu (a Nigerian print fanatic with magical silk dresses…)
Erdem (who won the Fashion Fringe award a year ago…)
Gareth Pugh (our favorite mad scientist…)
Louise Golden (a knitwear guru who claimed her last collection was influenced by Burkas…)
Marios Schwab (who won the British Fashion Award last year…)
Todd Lynn (a rock band costumer, and the only menswear designer on the bill…)

The awards alleviate the financial pressure of showing this fall, but they also bring new stress:

If you’ve been dubbed The Next Big Thing by all of Britain, you’d think every stitch was sewing your fate.

Of course, the real mark of a New Gen designer hitting it big is when their sponsor, TopShop, starts ripping off their catwalk collection… or have we forgotten their brief romance with rave t-shirts?
