Courteney Cox

Skipping the tents, the actor and singer took the unusual step of hosting the spring fashion show in the L.A. home of David and wife Courteney Cox Arquette — and MySpace Celebrity Exclusives is bringing you a front row seat. Check out the video footage, plus get the scoop on how Courteney influenced David’s look and what model profession the runway show inspired in their daughter Coco.

Today is a big day for celebrity fragrances, as WWD announces new celeb scents for Courteney Cox Arquette and Faith Hill. Beauty brand Avon have chosen Courteney as the face of their latest scent, Spotlight. The fresh, oriental fragrance is slated to launch in limited release in April of 2009 at a budget-friendly cost of $23 a bottle. So why did the star choose to represent Avon? “Once I sat with them and learned more, they really blew me away with all the issues they support and the wonderful earnings opportunities they give women,” Cox says.

Singer Faith Hill also announced today plans to partner with Coty for a signature fragrance that will hit stores in late fall of 2009. While the name and composition of the star’s first scent have yet to be announced, she’s no stranger to the fragrance industry, having lent her nose to help develop McGraw by Tim McGraw, her husband’s cologne with the brand. One thing is certain, the singer has plenty of inspiration for the fragrance: “I am inspired by my travels around the world as well as my home,” she says. “These experiences have made a mark on my style in what I wear, my surroundings and the perfume I choose.” Tell us: Which of the two fragrances are you most excited to try out when they launch next year?

He might be known as one of Hollywood’s more eccentric dressers, but David Arquette is about to launch a signature line of clothing that’s showing off a whole new side of himself. PEOPLE caught up with the new designer who dished about his clothing line Propr, produced in partnership with one of the founders of preppy favorite Penguin. As for which side of the preppy/eccentric divide Propr falls on, David says, “It isn’t conservative, but it wouldn’t be like what you’d expect out of me — crazy dresser. But, you know, it’s somewhat conservative clothing but it’s got a sort of vintage twist to it that you can sort of mix and match to sort of represent your own style.” So far Arquette has only shown off his wears during a sneak peek at N.Y.C. fashion week (attended by famous friends Jennifer Aniston and Laura Dern), but he’s planning a blow-out launch event in his native L.A. And what does his famous wife, Courteney Cox Arquette think about the designs? “She’s had tons of input,” he says. “We went into her closet, and [I] asked her about the clothes that she loves.” And then, proving that he’ll never completely abandon his flair for whimsy, he adds, “We found a spider in her closet and took a picture of it and put it on some shirts.”

What’s the go-to Hollywood outfit? According to Courteney Cox Arquette, it’s a T-shirt and jeans. In fact, at last night’s OmniPeace event at Kitson Men, it was all about the T-shirt — specifically the Charitable T-shirt line by Signorelli to benefit Millenium Promise, a non-profit dedicated to ending extreme poverty in Africa by 2025. Courteney was host of the event and sported her very own OmniPeace shirt in grey and an EB Butterfly Necklace that her and David designed along with
Satya Jewelry to benefit another charity. She told PEOPLE, “I’m loving this shirt! It’s so soft and cute.” She was joined by OmniPeace founder Mary Fanaro (her friend of 20-years), husband David Arquette, sister-in-law Alexis Arquette and neighbor David Spade who came to support his friend. “Courteney always picks good causes to get behind,” said the comedian. The mom of little Coco Arquette isn’t just getting her celebrity friends to support, she’s also teaching her daughter to give back. “With Coco, we’re teaching her slowly but at this point I’m just trying to get her to share her Barbies!” Maybe an OmniPeace T-shirt for Barbie should be up next.

Courteney Cox Arquette totally fooled us with this adorable printed tote! We were positive that the actress was carrying a perfectly chic spring bag to The Tripper premiere last week, but it turns out that is actually a picnic blanket carrier that everyone was given at the screening (the movie’s name is on the other side). Made by Picnic Time, the blanket comes in a variety of cute geometric patterns and is reversible fleece and waterproof nylon. And at $18, it’s a steal. Hope it kept Courteney from getting the chills during the scary movie! Get your own Sunshine Blanket Tote at katalinaklark.com.

Courteney Cox had a fashionable way to say thank you to her BFF Jennifer Aniston after she appeared on her show Dirt (and its much anticipated kiss scene) in the March 27th finale. Cox gave her fellow-Friend a pair of Robert Marc Snakeskin shades. These are the same shades that Courteney’s character, tabloid editor Lucy Spiller, is seen wearing on the show, but in a slightly different color. Jen’s new pair are a limited-edition frame that retails for $595 at Robert Marc boutiques. Also available: Slightly less expensive Snakeskin frames, about $375, in white, green and black. Visit RobertMarc.com for a boutique near you to purchase the frames.
