Whitney Port doesn't want her new Whitney Eve clothing line to fall into the celebrity-fashion-line category (we've been covering this beat a lot today, huh?), probably because the stereotype is categorically negative. So she differentiates herself thusly: "I thought if I could bring a California style that was more unique, and more based on a vintage aspect, then women would feel a little bit different," she says. Because Mischa Barton's vintage-inspired bags and Nicole Richie's vintage-inspired accessories don't tackle that special feeling of celebrity vintage inspiration enough? Sure, we get it. [Nylon]
