RETURN ENGAGEMENT: Michael Kors has had a long run with models Carmen Kass and Noah Mills in his ad campaigns and on his runway, and he’s bringing the duo back for fall. After shooting past campaigns on private jets, chauffeured cars and yachts around the globe, the fall campaign was shot in New York City to reflect the urban nature of the season. Mario Testino photographed Kass and Mills entering and leaving a Broadway theater. “Michael is an avid fan of the theater and has been attending Broadway shows since the tender age of five,” said a spokesman, who added the media spend is flat compared to last year. The ads will break in the August issues of American, British, Russian and Italian Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar and W.

Farrah Fawcett's death has touched me deeply. She was an American icon and a real beauty. Her warm smile and positive energy brought me a lot of happiness. Farrah was sick for a long time, and is no longer in pain. She is in a better place, and will be missed.
I can't believe I am crying at work....again. Her struggle with cancer, and passing remind me that life is not to be taken for granted. Live each day as if it is your last. Farrah Fawcett was 62 years old, the same age as my father. My father is a great man, and means the world to me. My heart goes out to Farrah, her father, Ryan O'Neal, her son, and everyone who was lucky enough to be loved by her.
Farrah's friends remember her:
In a statement confirming the tragic news, Ryan O'Neal says: "After a long and brave battle with cancer, our beloved Farrah has passed away. Although this is an extremely difficult time for her family and friends, we take comfort in the beautiful times that we shared with Farrah over the years and the knowledge that her life brought joy to so many people around the world." He reveals Fawcett was awake and aware of her surroundings shortly before her death, telling People.com, "She now belongs to the angels. She's now with her mother and sister and her God. I loved her with all my heart. I will miss her so very, very much. She was in and out of consciousness. I talked to her all through the night. I told her how very much I loved her. She's in a better place now.
Fawcett's Charlie's Angels co-stars Jaclyn Smith, Kate Jackson and the actress who replaced her on the hit show, Cheryl Ladd, were among the first celebrities to remember the star. Smith commented, "She had courage and strength... Now she has peace as she rests with real angels." And Ladd told HollyScoop.com, "I'm terribly sad about Farrah's passing. She was incredibly brave, and God will be welcoming her with open arms."
"I will miss Farrah every day," commented Kate Jackson to PEOPLE. "She was a selfless person who loved her family and friends with all her heart, and what a big heart it was. Farrah showed immense courage and grace throughout her illness and was an inspiration to those around her. When I think of Farrah I will remember her kindness, her cutting dry wit and, of course, her beautiful smile."
Added Jackson, "Today when you think of Farrah remember her smiling, because that is exactly how she wanted to be remembered."
Playboy publisher Hugh Hefner called Fawcett, who died of cancer at age 62 Thursday morning, the "Marilyn Monroe of the 1970s" whose famous poster "defined what one thinks of as the All-American girl."
"Men fell in love with her and women wanted to look like her," says Hefner of his magazine's cover model. "She had a magic that never went away. She became a part of the pop culture.
Griffin O'Neal, son of Ryan, said, "I never looked at her as a 'star,' or a 'Charlie's Angel.' I looked at her always as this wonderful Southern Belle, a lady. I was fascinated by her. I loved her. She was the most gracious, wonderful person. I always wondered why she was around this family. 'Why are you here?' She was such a beautiful person. Especially in the latter days."
He went on to say, "It was incredible watching her battling to help [her son] Redmond. She had the patience of a giant. I'm so worried about my brother. What's he going to do without her? Farrah was part of my family. My heart is broken. I will miss her forever and ever. She was so kind and gracious."
Fawcett's former husband, Lee Majors, says, "She fought a tremendous battle against a terrible disease. She was an angel on earth and now an angel forever."
Hairstylist Jose Eber, who created Fawcett's famous blonde mane, says, "She was blessed with the most amazing hair anybody could have."
"Her hair had its own personality," he says. "In my business, doing hair for so long now, very rarely do you see a person who has hair with such perfection. And it was all natural."

Charlie's Angel theme:
My favorite Charlie's Angels episode was "Angels in Chains". A chambray shirt & a high waisted denim jean is a classic look:
This weekend, while the moon is shining down upon your skin, I hope you find the stuff that is in your wildest dreams & do the things you never do.
"A Love Bizarre" is a hit song from the Sheila E. album Romance 1600. The song is a duet between Sheila and her mentor, Prince. The song clocks in at a remarkably long 12:16, but the single version clocks out at 3:46.

The song was a smash hit it reached #1 in Urban radio airplay & Dance/Club play , #2 on the U.S. R&B charts and #11 on the Billboard Hot 100 & Pop radio airplay.
Love Bizarre Lyrics:
The moon up above it shines on upon our skin
Whispering words that scream of outrangeous sin. We all want the stuff that's found in our wildest dreams
It gets kinda rough in the back of our limousine.
That's what we are, we all want a love bizarre. That's what we are, we all want a love bizarre.
A strawberry mind, a body that's built for two
A kiss on the spine, we do things we never do. Swallow the pride and joy of the ivory tower
We'll dance on the roof, make love on a bed of flower. That's what we are, we all want a love bizarre.
The moon up above, it shines on upon our skin . . . That's what we are, we all want a love bizarre. That's what we are, we all want a love bizarre.....
Krush Groove (1985) - In this scene Run and Russell "discover" Sheila E in the Bronx's Disco Fever, prompting what will become the film's love triangle. DMC and Jam Master Jay appear, Kurtis Blow...
"Oh Sheila" is according to legend written about Sheila E.
3 years ago, while waiting for the spring 2007 Marc Jacobs show to start, "Oh Sheila"was played continuously on a loop. The show did not start on time, but this song put me in a real good mood. it makes me want to dance - needless to say, that was neither the right time or place.
Like they always say What's good for the geese Is always good for the gander Oh, Sheila (Oh, Oh)
Oh, Baby Love me right Let me love you till we get it right, Hmm Can't you let the others be 'Cause with you is where I got to be Oh, Sugar Where you been? Hangin' out with your male friends (Listen) Somebody's gonna hurt you The way you love to keep hurting me (And we sing)
Oh Oh, Sheila Let me love you till the morning comes Oh Oh, Sheila You know I want to be the only one
Oh, Baby Understand That I want to be the only man But it seems as though it's getting too hard And I think I'll start to have my own fun Oh, Baby It's plain to see That you're qualified to fufill your needs You think you pulled one over on me Well, Honey Baby, just you wait and see (And we sing)
Oh Oh, Sheila Let me love you till the morning comes Oh Oh, Sheila You know I want to be the only one
Uh, Baby It's 1-2-3 I love you baby, Honestly Hmm, I want to Di a di da li a di a di da li
