Stop style thief! Lourdes Leon Ciccone has revealed that her mother Madonna often raids her teenage wardrobe, at an event in New York last night


Madonna is well known for her pursuit of eternal youth, but one of her tricks for staying youthful is well within the ordinary mortal's grasp.

The 52-year-old giggled much like her teenage daughter Lourdes Leon Ciccone as she admitted to borrowing clothes from the 13-year-old's wardrobe.

The mother and daughter designers teamed up in New York to launch their Material Girl clothing line.

In a rare joint interview on the pink carpet - not Lourdes favourite colour she admitted - the pair opened up about their differing taste, and stealing from each other's no doubt enviable wardrobes.

Lourdes, 13 and Madonna, 52, spoke at an event at New York store Macy's promoting their co-designed Material Girl clothing line.

The collection consists of clothes, footwear, handbags, jewellery and accessories.
And it's clear that the daughter of the pop icon is vying to win style plaudits of her own.

Lourdes looked cool in a black leather studded biker style jacket from the clothing range, plaid shirt - which her mother said she disliked - and artfully ripped tights.

While Madonna wore punky accessories along with a black LBD and non-ripped fishnets.
When asked if she ever borrows from her formerly trendsetting mother's wardrobe, Lourdes let out a huge 'OHMYGOD...Like...all the time! But she does the same thing to me now. But it's so annoying, like, like, because my feet skipped her shoe size, and it's so frustrating.'

While the idea is not inconceivable, as the singer keeps herself in enviable shape with her two-hour daily workouts.

But whether the clothes worn by her daughter are actually suitable for someone of her maturity is another matter.

On working together she admitted: 'Well you know I have a very strong point of view and so does she she has a good sense of style.

'I like to think that I do I think we compliment each other but we do disagree on a few things.

While Lourdes said: 'Yes there were definitely clashes but you know it all worked out in the end.

'I wouldn't have worn this flannel shirt thing but she looks good in it so what are you going to do. I'm a very proud mum tonight.'

And joining them was the model of the line - 17-year-old rock wildchild Taylor Momsen.

Despite wearing an eye-catching slip of a dress and thigh-high boots, her star power was somewhat dimmed by the combined presence of Madonna and her stunning daughter.

Momsen was directed in a fashion shoot by Madonna and Lourdes earlier this year.

She said: ‘I’m psyched to be the face of Material Girl,' who is also star of television programme Gossip Girl and has released an album with her band The Pretty Reckless.

‘It’s awesome. For one, it’s Madonna so it’s gonna be cool and it’s really an awesome experience so far.

'She’s very down to earth for all her success so it was good to see that.’

The Material Girl brand debuts at Macy’s in New York. It will then be available in Macy’s stores across the U.S.

Meanwhile, a retired New York City firefighter yearning to meet Madonna was accused of scrawling messages of adoration on the pavement outside her apartment building and possessing a 7.5-inch ice pick.

Robert Linhart is charged with graffiti and criminal possession of an ice pick recovered from his car.

He is also charged with resisting arrest outside the building near Central Park.
The 59-year-old was arraigned in Manhattan Criminal Court. A judge set his bail at 20,000 US dollars in cash.

Defence lawyer Cheryl Bader told the Daily News there was 'no threatening conduct' and it is 'not a crime to adore Madonna', the singer of pop hits including Like a Virgin and Material Girl.

Police said Linhart was arrested on Tuesday.
