And even though we’ve seen more of her in the nude recently, this January 2012 catalog shot with Guy Aroch’s lens for the Free People is a reminder that Miss Kloss is still the same girl next door that everyone loves. As Kloss being the NYC girl that she is shot roaming favorite parts of New York City with pretzels and denim, these final looks are to die for. Don’t you just love her?

Giambattista Valli Rumored to Design Collection for Macy’s

Lester Brathwaite — Fri, 10 Jun 2011 10:54:12 +0000

Macy’s is in a European state of mind, it seems. Following collections by Brit designers Kinder Aggugini and Matthew Williamson in February and April, respectively, and — kaiser on a roll — Karl Lagerfeld‘s collection launching in September, Macy’s next collabo is allegedly with noted Italian fox, Giambattista Valli.

The involvement of the four designers is part of an effort to bring more “fashion excitment” and younger customers to Macy’s Impulse department, which sells brands like BCBG Max Azria, Free People and Kensie.

Though Macy’s has yet to confirm the news — according to one of their sassy reps, “We have not announced the next designer and do not comment on speculation.” — Vallis’ one-off collection is expected to hit stores in November. [WWD]

Urban Outfitters More Popular Than We Thought

Rebecca Alexander — Mon, 01 Sep 2008 21:00:12 +0000

Urban Outfitters and Anthropologie and Free People have grown a whopping 79% in sales second quarter.

According to the Wall Street Journal, they’ve “been attracting shoppers with an eclectic mix of full-price clothing and home goods in stores where employees create their own displays.” And instead of flooding the market, they plan to cap the number of stores at 250. “Big is the enemy of cool,” says the company’s founder.

Who still shops at Urban Outfitters? I get that there sales are pretty good, but otherwise that store is nauseating. If anyone doesn’t agree, let me know.

Thanks BlackBook

Shop: Morgana Sandal

Rebecca Alexander — Thu, 03 Apr 2008 16:47:55 +0000

Searching through my second fave website, Popgloss.com (only second behind Fashion Indie of course), I found the coolest sandals. I’ve been trying to stay away from the ‘Gladiator Sandal” trend, yet it always attracts me. Then I found these, the Morgana Sandal from Free People. I know it’s surprising, but they are unique and very different than others I’ve seen recently. So kudos to whomever produced them, even if it is Free People, who are just one step away from being Urban Outfitters, but not on our shit list yet!
