If you're planning to brave the masses and hit H&M early Thursday morning to score some M by Madonna listen to this- the first 250 customers at the 5th Avenue store will be entered in a raffle to win a trench coat autographed by the Material Girl.

Our sources say they're giving away 10 coats, just like the one she wore in the ad campaign.

The chic white trench retails for $100. But imagine the e-bay possibilities if you happen to win the autographed version. . . . .

Deal of the Day

The Victoria's Secret catalog does more than provide Tara Reid with the bulk of her wardrobe. They actually have some cute pieces that aren't solely meant to be worn under dresses.

This 3 quarter sleeve swing trench coat is proof enough.

Pair it with a skinny pant to create a chic silhouette or just put it over some of their undies for the flasher effect.

Marked down from $138 to $79.99, it's a perfect coat to put some spring into your step.

Tila Tequila, Queen of Everything

It would be almost un-American not to like Miss Tila Tequila -- the undisputed Queen of Myspace (she has 1.7 million friends on the site!) and a tough business woman who has clambered up the ladder of public consumption to become the living, breathing epitome of the American dream.

From a tough childhood growing up in Houston, TX, Tequila (nee Nguyen) has worked her way up to being one of the most recognizable brands in the Gen X and Gen Next consciousness.

We (Danica and Kirsten) caught up with Tequila last night at the Steppin' Out magazine party celebrating her cover. She's a 4'11" whirlwind of smokey-eyed flawless skinned fabulousness.

Check Tila out here. And check out her single and video for "I Love U" on iTunes.

As for the fashion part of this post, check out Tequila's own brand of California-girl casualwear here.

A Racey Proposition

Sexy back isn't just a pop anthem, it's something to strive for.

And nothing shows off a slender stern like a racerback top. Sure it's poses a bra issue, but the errant straps are worth the look.

I've been seeing more of them lately, like baggy ones from Obesity and Speed and this sleek pink one from Clu available at shopbop.com.

But my ultimate favorite is this sunglass printed top by Jesse Kamm available at Ylli in Brooklyn.

It's like the cloth incarnation of Joe Cool.
