Macy’s to kick off 150th birthday celebration with a literal smash
Friday, June 20, 2008
(NEW YORK) Macy’s annual Fourth of July fireworks show has become a New York institution–and this year’s display will carry a special message. To kick off the retailer’s 150th birthday celebration, which will run from July through December, Macy’s will add a few extra jolts to the night sky. The barges floating in the East River will be graced with special arches proclaiming “150″–and they will commemmorate the occasion by unleashing a special 150-firework salute.

Macy’s slogan–”Inspiring oohs, ahhs and wows for 150 years”–likely forshadows the exclamations that will ensue as Macy’s rolls out six months of celebration. We’re sure this year’s Thanksgiving Day Parade will include archival balloons and icons of the past, and the holiday windows will tell another story entirely. Additionally, Alek Wek will be appearing in the anniversary advertising campaign. “We shot it in the warehouse where they store the floats,” the supermodel told The Daily. “I felt like a kid in a candy store!”

Let’s face it, we all want to look, feel, and dress as good as the Celebs do. Take a look at Posh, living up to her name, on the streets of New York. Every hair in place, a crisp chic ruffled blouse, and belted skirt, polished off with a very trendy pair of shades. No wonder the paparazzi follow her all day. She looks hot! Well you can re-create her posh look for way less. If you start to notice strangers with cameras swarming, it just means you got the look right.

Allow yourself a Carrie Bradshaw moment and look at these beautiful Christian Louboutin shoes.  They just might be the most beautiful shoes in the world.  At the very least they’re the most beautiful shoes I’ve seen all day.  The only tragedy is that they’re not on my feet. 

So what do you wear with the most beautiful shoes in the world?  My first thought- nothing at all.  My second thought- a simple black dress.  When you go out in these shoes, let the shoes do all the talking.  They’ll say “I’m expensive and oh-so-pretty”, and you won’t have to.

and they’re so easy to POAST

And last but not least. Because It’s Friday:

Oscar de la Renta’s fall campaign to debut exclusively in July Vogue
Friday, June 06, 2008
(NEW YORK) Oscar de la Renta is unarguably classic–but he’s not afraid to take a calculated risk. His brand is upsetting its competition by running, for the first time ever, its fall campaign a month early in the July issue of Vogue.

On Thursday, Alex Bolen, president and chief executive officer of Oscar de la Renta, revealed to Fashion Week Daily that the iconic American fashion house decided to run its highly-anticipated fall ad campaign, shot by Craig McDean, in the July issue of Vogue, out in two weeks time. “We have delivered at least of 85 percent of our pre-fall collection, and within the next few weeks we will have delivered a major portion of the runway collection,” Bolen explained, adding that the company has had a longstanding relationship with Vogue and its editor in chief, Anna Wintour. “Our business is all about getting the early sales; our customer is all about newness. And if we can be there first, we will get those sales.”

There will be a sequel to the wildly successful “Sex and the City” movie. After the film’s $57 million opening weekend, that’s one of the surest bets in the entertainment industry.

But – to muse a la Carrie Bradshaw– I have to wonder, can “Sex” be as good the second time around?

Not that this would stop the studio from rushing into a sequel, but if you’ve seen the film, you know there’s really nowhere for the stories of the “SATC” characters to go. (Pictured at right: Kristin Davis, Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon and Kim Cattrall in the “SATC” movie.)

Satc And that’s the problem with the extension of entertainment franchises, which is rampant these days. Steps from the Times Square hotel I’m sitting in now, there’s ample evidence of this: “Legally Blonde” was a movie that became a Broadway show (and there will soon be a reality show based around that musical). John Waters’ “Hairspray” was a movie that became a musical that morphed into another movie.
