      Taylor Swift has a brand new collection of sundresses available at mega-retailer Walmart. This isn't the first celeb line, and it certainly won't be the last, but there is something slightly different about the cute frocks: they're $14! That is not a typo. $14!

      The 19-year-old country star collaborated with L.e.i. to launch the budget-minded line, which currently consists of three styles in numerous colors.

      Apparently, the down-to-earth cutie is looking out for those of us without a superstar's bank account. Taylor told People magazine, "I was totally adamant that I wanted [the dresses] to be affordable. With my headlining tour, we are offering $20 tickets everywhere we go and I wanted to approach the sundress line in the same way."

      Price points like that are a great economic stimulus plan! Check out Taylor's tour dates, and browse her affordable frocks on the L.e.i. website.

Now, Renee is ready to take a break. "I'm trying to figure out where I want to go and what I want to do next" she reveals in Glamour magazine's June issue. "In this line of work, you become [so defined by your job]."

      She's also focusing on the simple things in life -- like napping. "I'm working on getting bored," she laughs. "And it's really hard! But I need to sit still long enough to see where my brain goes." She does have a few different projects on her plate, but is enjoying spending some time at home. "I'm not putting on other people's clothes or living out of my luggage. I'm actually going into the bathroom to use my

    • Which Star Sparkled More in Moschino?

      Tara Reid simply sparkled in the Moschino sequined dress that she wore to Macy's Passport 2008 Gala on September 25. The "American Pie" actress has had more than her fair share of fashion flubs, so I was pleasantly surprised that she opted to wear the tasteful tiered frock to the event, which raises awareness and money for HIV/AIDS organizations.

      Unfortunately, teen queen Miley Cyrus rocked the same dress on the 2008 Teen Choice Awards blue carpet and couldn't have looked cuter. If only she hadn't paired it with those gray suede boots, which kind of ruined the ensemble for me. What do you think?

The line literally wrapped around the building and went on for blocks. It reminded me a little of a Black Friday morning except the folks in this crowd were clad in the latest designer duds! The check-in desk was rushed, PR gals were frantically screaming into their headsets, and the Los Angeles Fire Department made a special appearance to cut off the number of bodies allowed into the already cramped venue, meaning droves of people who were supposed to be at the show were turned away.

      Backstage Lauren told me that her spring '09 collection is "very girly, pretty, [and] romantic ... with a bunch of headpieces. Almost every model has something on her head. We spent six hours in a room making big, floral headpieces because you see a lot of that in the 'Sex and the City' movie and 'Gossip Girl,' so it's a really fun trend and I
