When Lindsay Lohan launched her 6216 leggings line, there seemed to be more than a few skeptics. Leggings for $100? Not in these hard economic times. But, Lindsay has proved them wrong. In fact, Intuition, a celeb-favorite boutique, tells PEOPLE, “6126 is a hot seller for us right now. The new prints (Goddess, Lust and Hyde) are flying off the shelves.” — the same goes for Henri Bendel, Nordstrom, Intermix, and Lisa Kline. Her hottest seller? The Mr. President legging, $132, that comes complete with quilted knee pads. And this is just the beginning. The legging designer is planning on producing four collections a year and hopes to add more products. Judging from her own wardrobe of late, maybe mini-dresses and leather jackets? Tell us: Have you bought a pair of Lindsay’s leggings? Would you?

Celebrity hairstylist Sally Hershberger has coiffed just about every celeb you can name — including everyone from former First Lady Hilary Clinton to Tom Cruise, John Mayer, Julia Roberts and Lindsay Lohan. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t still a few stars left that she’d love to get her hands on. PEOPLE caught up with Hershberger at the grand opening of her new L.A. salon, where she dished about her dream clients, starting with Mad Men’s retro-beauty January Jones. “She’s so gorgeous,” said Sally. “I love that whole Catherine Deneuve/Grace Kelly thing — but I want to do her in a modern-day vibe.” And another another famous blond she would style a little differently? “I love [Madonna's] long hair, but I felt like it kind of pulled her face down,” she says of the performer’s recent show in N.Y.C. “I don’t want to put her down because I love her. I would just love it a little smoother and a little more hot.” Hershberger, who also has her own line of hair products, Supreme Head, feels that the key to sexy hair is keeping things looking natural by using just a little bit of product. “You don’t want to see the product in the hair,” she says. “That’s the biggest mistake. You want to be able to run your hands through someone’s hair and have it just look sexy whatever way they move it.” — Jed Dreben

Yesterday Lindsay Lohan blogged about the launch of her leggings line 6126 in New York, and PEOPLE caught up with the multi-tasking star at the after party for the Cinema Society and Dolce & Gabbana sponsored premiere of Filth and Wisdom at the Thompson LES hotel to hear how it all went. Lohan tells PEOPLE that “it was really exciting. It was at Henri Bendel’s and they did an amazing job for us. We sold 700 leggings in an hour, more than I ever thought would ever happen.” And Lohan is clearly pleased at her involvement in the line, telling PEOPLE “it was a really cool thing to be a part of and to know that I had a hand in designing the leggings.” And the leggings launch wasn’t the only exciting thing on Lohan’s agenda while in New York. “I went to Madonna’s show last night. Every time I see another show of hers she becomes a newer icon to me. She’s timeless in a way that Marilyn Monroe was but was didn’t get to fulfill.” And considering that Monroe was the inspiration behind the name of Lohan’s 6126 line, that may just be the ultimate compliment.

Lindsay Lohan is all about the leggings — loving the wardrobe staple enough to create her own line. And much to the relief of her fellow legging-lovers, the star just posted on her personal MySpace page that the much-anticipated newest collection 6126 is hitting Henri Bendel’s N.Y.C. store today — and the star will be there to do the honors. “I’m thrilled to announce that my new fashion collection, 6126 is finally ready for launch!!” she says. “I love to wear leggings, so it should come as no surprise
that my first venture into the world of fashion design is with leggings!” She goes on to explain the brand’s cryptic name, saying, “I named the collection after Marilyn Monroe’s birth
date, because to me she represents timeless, confident glam -­ and that is
 the voice of this brand.” So what can fans expect from the new line? “Our holiday collection is pretty eclectic from gold zippers to leather detailing, to buttery soft cashmere.” Click here to check out more on Lindsay’s MySpace page. If you’re lucky enough to be in N.Y.C. today, you can check out the entire collection for yourself at Bendels Fifth Avenue store between six and eight P.M. — and see the star for yourself.

Following the success of her line of skinny, shiny leggings, Lindsay Lohan has announced that she’s branching out into beauty. WWD reports that Lindsay’s brand development company Stay Gold, which created those infamous 6126 brand footless leopard ankle gloves, will soon be giving us the chance to look like we’ve been baking under the L.A. sun — with an odorless, natural self-tanner. And while the two products might seem like oddly diverse choices, they have one thing in common: they’re both loved by Lindsay. The legging-wearing, perpetually-bronzed star defends her decision to move in two directions simultaneously, saying, “Why not? Girls use [self-tanners] all the time. And I do, and it makes sense.” While a new collection of lower-priced leggings is slated to hit stores next spring, Stay Gold has yet to reveal exactly when the bronzer will go into production. Tell us: Did you buy Lindsay’s leggings? Will you get golden with her bronzer?

She might be about to make a foray into fashion with her own soon-to-launch line of leggings — but that doesn’t mean that Lindsay Lohan is saving her star style for her signature collection alone. Italian brand Fornarina, who will open a flagship store in New York this year, have just announced that they’ve chosen the actress as the face of their expanding international brand. A label spokesperson tells WWD they selected Lindsay because she “is that very self-confident, dynamic woman, she’s got a lot of attitude.” And, he adds, “That’s what we’re hoping our customer will aspire to.” And while for now Lindsay’s sticking to modeling for the company’s upcoming ad campaign, she reveals to WWD that although she’d love to design for the label in the future, “Right now, it’s just leggings for me.” Tell us: What do you think about Lindsay’s new role as the face of Fornarina?
