Tempting Tuesday-Kat Von D launches her own fashion line

 

And it ain’t half bad.

I have since forgiven Kat for doing the nasty with Jesse; She saw the error of his ways. When I heard rumors she as starting her own fashion line I was a bit skeptical. Having viewed a few pieces, I am pleasantly surprised.

The collection, which is also available on her site KatVonDLosAngeles.com, features coats, shirts, bottoms, dresses and more.

For Fall 2011 the overall theme was influenced by love letters, which has Kat revealing-

"Over the years I’ve saved every single letter, note, and card given to me by loves. Reading through them, each one triggers beautiful feelings, some are more melancholic than others, but all beautiful none the less. I thought about my favorite love story of all time, which is the tale of Ludwig van Beethoven's 'Immortal Beloved' - a mystery that even now has never been truly solved. When I put on the "Beethoven" jacket, or the Fur Elise pants, I feel tragically romantic".

She adds-

“The purpose of me creating this clothing line is simply to practice and share what Mom taught me. “Express yourself through your art - whether it’s your drawings in a sketchpad, tattoos on your skin, the shade of your lipstick, or the clothes that you wear.“

 

What do you think of her new business venture?

Very old world-like! There's no doubt the girl is artistically creative! Just not so lucky with men. Wasn't she pregnant at one point? I used to watch her LA Ink show-and I swear there was a teaser about her being pregnant-then no baby?

Smashattack-I wants bad!

Helyce-I don;t know if she was or not. I watch occasionally. It's always appealed to me how nice she is.
