Why vacuum cleaner bags are better [07 Jul 2011|10:37am]
Let us consider the production costs. Vacuum does not suck the dirt like a magnet. They use oxygen to breathe and Mulberry Bag give the dirt through the filter and collection device.

Paris Fashion Week: Paul Smith goes naval, reserved on the runway [29 Jun 2011|11:05am]
The runways of Milan and Paris were bursting with blues of every hue for the spring-summer 2012 collections, but Paul Smith kept it close to a navy base -- in both senses of the word -- for his slim, trim, pared back collection.

Colorwise the pieces on the runway were grounded primarily in navy blue and black, with some browns grays and tans -- and an eye-catching shade of orange.

It was the orange and blue color combination that evoked the feeling of naval dress uniforms paired with the flight deck vests worn on aircraft carriers (for fall and winter 2011, Mark McNairy's first collection for Woolrich Woolen Mills used a vibrant yellow accent color to create a similar vibe) and the military feeling was only made stronger by ribbed knit sweaters, nylon windbreakers that had a parachute fabric feel and button-front shirts paired with matching neckties as straight and no-nonsense as a nun's ruler.

The collection was more straightforward and unadorned than Smith's recent collections, eschewing pattern and print (except a brief flash of a jacket lining, ad a few final looks that had shattered-glass designs) for orange and blue color-blocked sweaters and mixed fabrication trousers that paired blue, silk-like trousers with leather pieces at each leg from mid-thigh to mid-calf.
No word on what inspired the collection (I usually like to catch Smith backstage after the show where he spins some fantastic yarn involving his elbow-rubbing days with rock 'n' rollers), but no matter, it stands at -- and commands -- attention all by itself.

High street name falls out of fashion [28 Jun 2011|09:15am]
THE high street was dealt another blow after women's fashion chain Jane Norman went into administration, the latest casualty in a grim year for retailers.
The company closed its 89 UK stores, including 16 in Scotland, over the weekend after it failed to find a buyer for the business.

The closure will put up to 1,600 jobs at risk, including those at its branches in Scotland - five in Glasgow, two in Edinburgh, two in Aberdeen, and one in Ayr, Dundee, East Kilbride, Inverness, Livingston, Perth and Stirling.

Accountancy firm Zolfo Cooper has been appointed as administrator and is attempting to find a buyer for the company saddled with a £140 million debt and which has been struggling with depressed sales.

The Edinburgh Woollen Mill and Debenhams are among those linked with takeover bids.

The clothing firm, aimed at 16-25 year olds and offering "a high street take on catwalk fashion", has also faced strong competition from retailers such as Primark and Top Shop.

Last night retail experts said a "crowded high street" and internet shops were partly to blame for chains such as Jane Norman closing down.

Andrew Turnbull, a retail expert at the Aberdeen Business School at the Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen, said that while Jane Norman had suffered as a result of the second "cull" of high street shops, a different high street could emerge in about five years.

"Jane Norman falls into the group of retailers which didn't appear to understand the market and what customers want," he said.

"Unless you have something which differentiates you, even just a brand name to offer up as kudos or a status symbol, you aren't going to survive, especially in fashion.

"It was facing strong competition from retailers such as Primark who are in the ascendancy following a low price strategy and also from online stores.

"However, while we are now into stage two of the cull of the high street and the retail fall-out is most certainly a measure of the state of the economy, it is not all doom and gloom.

"We are forever hearing about the multiples such as Tesco and Sainsbury's taking over the high street, but we are also seeing new developments.

"One is a distinct spirit of entrepreneurship, which has never been greater, generated in part by programmes such as Dragon's Den and The Apprentice with Lord Sugar. Another is that the idea of business as a career is increasingly being promoted within universities, making students aware of how it all works."

Popular Rent Laws Extended; Nobody Happy [24 Jun 2011|05:13pm]
Indeed, we can't believe it's over. This Rent Law Saga will certainly go down in the history books (for what, we're not entirely sure), but Gov. Cuomo and state legislators arrived on an agreement to extend the city's rent laws. As previously speculated, the threshold to deregulate an apartment is moved up to $2,500 from $2,000 a month and yearly income for tenants is moved up to $200,000 from $175,000. In addition, the amount a landlord has to invest in renovating an apartment will go up significantly. In the soon-to-be past a landlord must invest $40 in renovations for every $1 rent increase. That number will be going up to $60.

Sounds like rent regulation activists should be pretty happy about this outcome. Obviously, they're not.

Michael McKee, the treasurer of the Tenants Political Action Committee says "Governor Cuomo has been telling people for months that the big difference between 1997 and now is that George Pataki is not the governor and that he is a strong Democrat and that he is going to deliver real rent reform. This is not real rent reform. This is continuing the phase-out and elimination of the entire rent regulation system in the downstate region.” Sucks for the democratic lawmakers to hear that, because they've pretty much set themselves up for having to pass a pretty unpopular— at least among democrats— property tax cap. But that's a divisive battle for another day.
