Now Abercrombie & Fitch is doing one better: It has offered to pay the cast members of the trashy-and-proud MTV reality show "Jersey Shore" never to wear its clothes on air.

Well, you’re in luck, because the super sexy vampire is getting ready to start his own clothing line, appropriately called Rags by Rob.

Die neue Charm-Kollektion von Louis Vuitton
Louis Vuitton bringt im November die “Fetish Charm”-Kollektion heraus. Für die fünf limitierten Anhängerchen wurde das Fetisch Thema aufgegriffen, das schon Marc Jacobs zu den Louis Vuitton Accessoires für Herbst-/Winter 2011-12 inspiriert hat.
