News Roundup
Two recent articles of note:
Spending not in fashion right now
Since mid-July, new fall fashions like shrunken brown velvet jackets and Victorian-style blouses have been gathering dust on racks at the nation's retailers.It's almost the end of September, and for many merchants a combination of hot weather, subdued fashions in dark colors, high gasoline prices, and the ripple effects of Hurricane Katrina have made shoppers stay away from clothing stores.
You know what this means...BIG sales are on their way! I'll be keeping an eye out in the next couple of months.

Has anyone seen this tote bag mentioned in this NYT article about Esprit?
A large tote bag in subtle metallic gunmetal is $29 and looks as if it might cost $400.
Sounds like it might be worth checking out.
