Italian brand Fornarina tapped Lindsay Lohan to be the face of their Spring/Summer 2009 campaign.  The pieces in the collection are cute - especially the accessories.  Fornarina is always a bit over the top - but that’s what they do best.  The denim is skinny and on the light side, but my favorite pieces in the collection are the fun necklaces, oversize bags, sexy heels and cute prints including lipstick kisses and cupcakes.  The photos are pretty and Lindsey looks great - a little too much makeup - but beautiful nonetheless.  I think that she is a great ambassador for the brand as the pieces and personality suit her well.  View the full collection here.

Fornarina hosted it’s latest Urban Beauty Show in Paris this past Monday. The seasonal party is a celebration of fashion, music and art. The party included runway shows of and sneak peaks of Spring 2009 pieces. Fornarina has worked with Miss Van (my favorite!) in the past but at the Urban Beauty Show they unveiled projects with Miss Van and 5 other artists including Junko Mizuno (another fave!), Mijn Schatje, Angelique Houtkamp, Glenn Barr, Moebius, and Tokidoki. They selected a great line-up of artists to work with and I’m very excited to see the rest of pieces!

The day was filled with big news as the brand announced that Lindsay Lohan would be the face of Fornariana, appearing in ads for the Spring 2009 campaign. With new flagships slated to open this year in London, Paris and New York, Fornarina has big plans!
