Our mixed feelings about all of these celeb fashion lines are well known to readers of this blog. We think some are nice but mostly they are really overpriced, something that is almost a slap in the face in these harder economic times.
But then, they give a 'fashion line' of headbands to an actress! First, do we need ANOTHER fashion line from an actress? Second – headbands!?! Third- Mischa Barton? We didn't even realize she was still considered a celebrity, since we haven't seen her in anything lately.
We thought her handbag line was OK. Some pieces were a reasonable price though others were way out there. But now, she will have a hair accessory line ranging in price from $40-200.
Yep, you read that right – the price of her new hair accessories will start at $40. We have never spent that much for a single hair decoration in our life, much less $200 for one.
Call us crazy, but we doubt there is going to be a huge market for $200 headbands. Everyone is tightening their belts right now, and we can think of lots of things we could buy with that money besides a single headband. But we gotta say, like most things we are very curious to see what they look like. Stay tuned!
Despite our week-long foray into the fall fashion trends, a few more seem to have popped up, and we of course are all over it. In addition to the dark patent leather colors and fresh purple and fuchsia colors that you will be seeing lots of, these are also big trends for fall:
Jeweled necklines are big for fall. Why wear a necklace when you can wear your jewels on your actual dress, and not have to worry about losing them or having them fall off? We think these are cute and very sophisticated, though probably quite pricey, even for non-designer versions of these frocks.
Animal print scarves are all the rage. We personally aren't big fans but they are a nice way to add a stylish accessory to your look, and many can be had on the cheap.
The jury is still out on these multi-colored vests, we predict they will catch on only nominally.
Belted dresses are a big fall tend, but you can never have too many belts of varying sizes, colors and materials. So why not use them on some of your longer fall tunics as well?
This is maybe our favorite new trend. Simple, easy to buy and allows you to use your white jeans after labor day! What could be better?

The exasperated tone that Jan Brady used to use in reference to her older, more popular sister Marsha is the same one we are using on our beloved fashionista, Mischa Barton.
Even Urkel can't understand what Mischa is up to
Has the demise of The OC left her in a fashion depression? We know she has been working since her character was killed off a few seasons back, so surely she wasn't relegated to the bargain bins at the thrift store. If you can bear it, more on Mischa's tribute to Steven Q. Urkel after the jump
