I actually saw No Doubt in concert several years ago, and it was clear that Gwen Stefani had her own sense of fashion. It turns out that a lot of other people appreciate her style and want to get a little piece of it. Stefani was able to bring some of her style to the masses when she launched her own line, called L.A.M.B. in 2003.

The line includes clothing, accessories, and even a perfume called “L.” My cousin got a bottle of it for Mother’s Day today, and it smells pretty nice. I had a hard time distinguishing exactly what floral scent I was smelling, and now I know why. Apparently it includes hyacinth, violet, freesia, rose, lily, jasmine, orange blossom, and sweet pea, in addition to some fruits and musk. Somehow, it seems to be both light and heavy at the same time.

The fashions aren’t exactly my style, but they are definitely fun and unique. There’s a lot of black and white and checkers. With products as varied as Rasta hats and track suits, the line is really eclectic. Apparently Nicole Kidman and Teri Hatcher both think it’s pretty cool.

Ever since I heard about this line, I wondered if the name had anything to do with her baby – it’s not too far fetched – but it turns out that it’s from her first debut album, which was called Love. Angel. Music. Baby. (See, it had that word “baby” in it.)
