>> Erin Wasson Showing Bigger for Spring 2010 at Barneys' Behest -Erin Wasson says that she's expanding from her typical informal Erin Wasson for RVCA presentation to the Bryant Park Tents for Spring 2010 because Barneys did so well with the collection that it asked her to expand; the forthcoming larger collection, inspired by her pit bull, Cream, and "sunset," will be in conjunction with her jewelry line, Low Luv. As for personal progress, she just bought a house in Austin, Texas, and is wearing a tiny diamond band on her ring finger, of which she will only say: "I have a lot of love in my life. That’s the important thing." [Times UK]

>> THE MODELIZER -Is Erin Wasson the next model mogul in the making? The dilettante has styled runway shows for Alexander Wang, produced jewelry line LowLuv, launched a three-year clothing line with RVCA. More recently, she hit Paris to walk Emmanuelle Alt-styled catwalks Isabel Marant and Balmain and lent her styling abilities to Elle for an editorial in the April 2009 issue. We'll have to wait for her next endeavor, but in the meantime, she's hitting Austin in the next few days for the SXSW music festival. [Style File, Modelinia]

>> Is Jessica Stam taking the Erin Wasson route to design? Just like Wasson first got exposure to the design process while working with Alexander Wang (and has since launched LowLuv and her short-lived RVCA collaboration), Stam has been dipping her toes into design, creating a pair of Repetto oxfords for the brand's 60th anniversary in 2008 and then consulting with Marcus Wainwright and David Neville on their Spring 2010 Rag & Bone collection.

Her latest endeavor - four pieces for Rachel Roy's lower-priced line, RACHEL Rachel Roy - launches this month at Macy's. "I had full creative control," Stam told Marie Claire of her designs, which include a boxy checked sweater, a pair of jeans with buttons at the ankles, a quilted bag, and a belt. "But Rachel really stressed that whatever I made should be something I'd want to see my friends in." As for whether she might design her own collection in the future, Stam remained coy: "No comment."
