The Secret to a Haute Swimsuit Season

Posted by: Raylene Bartolacci on March 17th, 2010

Springing forward on the clocks always signifies that swimsuit season is just around the corner, which means that we will soon find ourselves staring into the mirror under ghastly florescent lights that are unforgiving in highlighting flaws. We have all been there, year after year, without exception. Not again, I said. This year will be different. Now when I stare into the mirror, I count my lucky stars that I have found the secret for instant gratification, and no I am not talking about a spray tan. [...read more]

J.Crew Discriminates Against Job Applicants

Posted by: Krisana Jaritsat on March 17th, 2010

J.Crew has been accused of employment prejudice from the civil-rights group Make the Road New York when it failed a "test" given by the group. A rally was held this past Sunday at the Fifth Avenue location in New York after a complaint was filed with the New York Attorney General's office. Company executives have yet to comment, but the blogosphere is seemingly split on the scandal with some calling outrage and others claiming the store has the right to hire those they believe convey its carefully groomed image. What’s your take? [...read more]

Tomorrow Night: CUSP at Neiman Marcus Union Square

Posted by: Nicola Payne on March 17th, 2010

The official opening of CUSP kicks off at 6:30 p.m. and the powers that be are inviting guests to come by and “drink in some drama.” CUSP represents Neiman’s effort to reach a savvy and cutting-edge clientele.
