Rapha Continental Mini-Mart
Buildouts. We love them. Especially when they’re from the brands we love. Check this “mini-mart/convenience” store they set up in Virginia during the North America Handmade Bicycle Show. Ben showed up some views of the pop-up on his Column recently. We’ll expand on it with some more images. “Beverage cooler, magazine racks, shelving, lottery, public postings and a cigarette wall (smartly rebranded by Carey SH with the names of our Continental rides), help to set the store—and a few shiny bikes laying against the front wall complete the quick stop spot.”

Flashback Fridays: Pink
Here’s a flashback of Pink rolling in some Green at the 2000 Music Billboard Awards…I’m not sure what’s worst here, her dollar bill dress or the dollar bill boots. These days Pink still keeps it edgy… but it’s more of an edgy-chic… which we love.

The Jumpsuit Face Off Rihanna Vs Lindsay Lohan
Two divas by our modern times standards, Rihanna and Lindsay Lohan chose two very similar outfits for two very different events. Rihanna was out to perform in Germany at the Echo Awards in Berlin and Lilo… well, just partying the night away, like she knows best.
The slight differences in the outfits only double the fun for us. While Rihanna’s emerald green jumpsuit is Batman enhanced, Lindsay continues to maintain her poor appearance standards by wearing this leather patch with transparent back ridiculous bodysuit. I can only hope there was something else to it: a Zorro cape, a Superman sign, something to make it look appealing, more digestible. Oh, well… Now tell me: who’s your favorite jumpsuit-er? Cast your vote right after the first image! (photos via 1, 2)

Macy’s Fashion Director Daily Style Challenge = $500 Gift Card Each Day!
A recent online survey of Macy's customers revealed that almost half the women polled find it a challenge to put together fabulous outfits on a regular basis, in particular, how to incorporate the latest trends with stuff already in the closet. To spread the fashion love, they are launching their new Macy's Fashion Director, an online mix-and-match tool that allows you to select pieces – from the perfect skirt to the season's "must-have" accessory – and build a virtual outfit. “Macy’s Fashion Director gives our customers the unique opportunity to create their own fashion story,” explains Nicole Fischelis, Macy's group vice president/fashion director. “They are able to put together a look that expresses their vision of what they believe fashion is right now. It’s how I take a trend from the runway and interpret it to fit our
customer’s needs."
To celebrate, Macy's is kicking things off with the 30 Day Fashion Director Challenge: from March 8 through April 6, they will post a daily style challenge – from the fun & flirty (a blind date) to the classy & chic (a big work presentation) to the special occasion (a wedding rehearsal dinner) – for which they invite everyone to put together the perfect outfit. Participating virtual-stylists will begin with a blank virtual canvas and suggested pieces from Macy's Spring 2010 collections; from there, individual style sensibility is the guiding force in creating a unique look. Everyone is invited to vote on the results; whoever gets the most votes for their outfit wins that day's prize: a $500 Macy's Gift Card.
“We know that fashion is an ever-evolving sport and that putting together an outfit, whether for everyday or for a special occasion, can sometimes be a major challenge,” says Martine Reardon, executive vice president of marketing for Macy’s. “With Macy’s Fashion Director, we are providing our customers with a fun, interactive tool that allows them to learn about and experiment with the season’s trends, engaging them in a unique way with a special reward for putting it all together.”
For fun, Macy's even tasked its key style makers including Martha Stewart, Donald Trump, Clinton Kelly, and Rachel Roy with their own seemingly impossible fashion challenge. The results of the makeover tests are a series of mockumentary-style short films called “Fashion Interventions” hosted at Macy’s Fashion Director. These sassy how-to films capture the star advisors in irreverent scenarios conducting fashion interventions with some unlikely characters. How did these fashion mavens fare against the style-challenged?
Stay tuned for the big reveal over the next several weeks at Macys.com/FashionDirector.

I Am Agyness Deyn For Barneys Japan 2010 Clothing Collection
What was I saying a while back? That I was grateful for Agyness Deyn not taking the collections path. Just yet. I was a bit off with that since Agyness was indeed bitten by the designing bug and there it goes: I AM by Agyness Deyn for Barneys Green, the clothing collection for Barneys Japan.
Why she went as far as Japan, it’s still unclear. However, the Barneys Green collection is an eco line with profits going to planting trees in Mongolia. As a matter of fact, today, March 5, 2010 there will be a new Barneys store opening in Kobe and that’s where the above mentioned collection will first be available. After the big opening, Agyness’ collection will be also available in Barneys Shinjuku starting March 13th. Judging by the look of Miss Deyn’s designs, she still has a long way until reaching the Moss-state of design. Wouldn’t you say? (WWD, BJ via TF)
