It’s springtime for Hitler! Well, no, not really, not like that at least.
Sicilian fashion store, New Form, has come under fire for it’s Spring 2010 advertising campaign that uses a altered image of Adolf Hilter.

The slogan for the campaign says, “Cambia Style — Don’t Follow Your Leader.” or “Change Style — Don’t Follow Your Leader.”
The target audience for the campaign are [Read more...]

In You’re Welcome, You Bastards, Michael Arrington, the founder of Tech Crunch, knows this well. The article describes a public relations wreckage of an event he experienced with FORTUNE magazine over the upcoming publications of, columnist David Kirkpatrick’s, The Facebook Effect: the Inside Story of the Company That Is Connecting the World.
A long story short, a representative from FORTUNE’s public relations department contacted Arrington about publishing a “exclusive excerpt of David Kirkpatrick’s book on Facebook.”

If there’s one thing that springs to mind when you mention Sex and the City, it’s fashion. Over the top, completely indulgent, fabulous fashion.
Over six seasons and two movies, the show has had a mega influence on style. It’s had us all drooling in envy for must haves like Manolo Blahnik stilettos, the Hermes Birkin bag (remember when Samantha used Lucy Liu’s name to get on top of the waiting list?), the iconic name necklace and huge flower accessories.
Sex and the City 2, the sequel we never believed was coming, premieres next week.
In honour of the release, let’s look back at [Read more...]

I love folk inspired, Afro-Latino Shakira music. “Pies Descalzos” and “¿Dónde Están Los Ladrones?” are probably my two favourite Shakira albums of the lot.
That’s the Shakira music I fell in love with when I was 12-years old singing, growing up to hum along to “Inevitable,” and later “La Tortura.”
It’s the style that always makes me so very happy:
Va liviano
mi corazón gitano
que sólo entiende de la tira a contramano. [Read more...]
