“I came across this bizarre news while surfing the net, Inspired by the great Paris debate, Mio Destino, a designer lingerie company, has specially designed “Free Paris” and “Jail Paris” silk panties. The company will contribute 50% of the profits from the ‘Paris Hilton Panties’ sales to an Ovarian Cancer Action charity.
ooook. I ain't no Condoleezza, nor am I into politics, but come on, with allll the problems we have in our world, who cares if the poor little heiress went to jail or not?!” writes self-confessed Kuwait fashion junkie Confashion.
