Economy falls, panties drop

Filed under: Style in the News, Swimwear and Lingerie

A weak economy affects everything, from homes, cars, and groceries all the way down to our undies. And lingerie retailers are feeling it, noting that even affluent customers are scaling way back on their panty purchases. Sales of big-ticket, upscale bra and panty sets (priced around $120) are falling, while sales of basic t-shirt bras and seamless panties are actually seeing increases.

Lauren Conrad's clothing line dying a slow death at racks

Filed under: Style in the News


(Click the photo to see Lauren's failing line -- would you buy it?)

After presenting at LA Fashion Week with much fanfare and receiving an award from US Weekly for creating the most fashionable celebrity clothing line this year, The Hills' Lauren Conrad has found herself in a veritable quandary: no one wants to buy her pieces anymore.

Agh...the outrage!

It turns out that her little appearance at Bloomingdale's a couple of weeks, you know, the one that made the department store's vice chairman proclaim that LC's collection was "the best-selling celebrity line [they had]," well, didn't do much to help her brand's slagging sales.

Apparently, the racks with Lauren's designs are totally overstuffed because no one wants to buy anything. At all. Not even when stores like Kitson offer a buy-one-get-one free deal are people willing jump on those jersey dresses. But really, this is suppose to be a surprise to whom?

Manolos over magic - SATC outsells Harry Potter

Filed under: Style in the News

It makes sense that the DVD of a movie that appeals to shoppers would have an incredible first day of sales (even if the party celebrating its release wasn't so fabulous on its own). In fact, the Sex and the City: The Movie DVD sold at the rate of approximately 90 per minute on its first day, outselling Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.

What we're curious about is how many people are buying it because they didn't see it in the theater, and how many are buying it because they want to watch it over and over. We know we're itching to get our well-manicured mitts on it so we can gawk at the glamor and fashion at our leisure. How about you?

Shop It To Me

Filed under: Stores We Love, Steals and Deals

I'm not even wearing my slippers. That's how relaxed I am while I'm shopping at ShopItToMe.Remember when online shopping was the solution to pounding the streets for good deals on clothing and accessories? Well, now we have a solution for pounding the keyboard, too.

ShopItToMe.com is a seemingly simple but surprisingly comprehensive free site for male and female fashion lovers on a budget. You go to the site, sign up for a free account, select your favorite designers, modify settings such as price caps and how often you want notifications, and voila! However often you chose, ShopItToMe e-mails you with sales on stuff you want but don't have time to look for.

The e-mails look great; very organized and not overwhelming. I can see them just fine on my home and work computers; that's Internet Explorer on a PC and Firefox on a Mac, two applications which hate on each other so hard they should be characters on Super Smash Bros.

Here are a couple of things that were e-mailed to me yesterday:

Pretty yellow Theory top, $85.00
BCBG Sonar Wave Burnout Camisole, $86.90
Nanette Lepore Pinstriped Skirt $135.00

It works, people. Go there.
