Struggling Economy Doesn't Mean Boring Stores

It seems that the toughest times are in the stores where the panic level is the greatest. What I am seeing is a lot of business owners and salespeople willing to use the economy as an excuse for a lack of energy and innovation in their stores. Even in the worst of times, people still get engaged and married. They still celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, births, achievements and love.


Kate B. Peterson, president and CEO of Performance Concepts


As the clothing market goes from bad to worst accessories are on the rise. American consumers are purchasing new accessories to spiff up their old clothes. The fashion-accessories market is expected to reach $20 billion by the end of 2012, a 24 percent increase from 2008, with handbags and neckties the most bullish of the accessories categories. Handbags earned a boost since becoming an "It" item and ties earned a boost thanks to the male population's "increasingly sophisticated fashion sense." Read more at market watch

Is Clothing Tax Back For New York City???

On Tuesday, 12/16 our "blind, crack loving" (as SNL called him) Governor Patterson proposed sales tax on clothing for New York City again. Luxury goods (furs, couture, jewelery, etc.) costing over $20,000 will have a 5% sales tax. Guess I won't be getting my David Yurman ring. Just when you thought it would not affect you he's also trying to bring back the sales tax on clothing and shoes under $110. Instead we'll get 2 sessions one week sales tax free, probably for back to school and the begining of the year. Who elected this man in... oh thats right he's governer by default. Thanks Spitzer. Patterson is almost as bad as Bloomberg.

Fondue For You

la Cave Des Fondus is on my list of places to go next year. This new fondue hotspot opened earlier this month in Soho, NYC. I can't wait to devour the cheese or the chocolate fondue while hanging out at my new local meeting spot for business meetings or chilling with the girls.

MIA Designs Okley Run






I'm sure I'm not only speaking for myself when I say I love Mia's style. Her loud and colorful clothes are just as funky as her rhymes. Eclectic, brave and carefree all-in-one. I must admit, I wasn't too excited (I hate celebrity clothing lines) but very interested to see what she had in store for her new line Okley Run. Feelings: expected, overpriced, unimpressed. Surprisingly it will be carried at Opening Ceremony in NYC or you can buy online at miauk.com
