Brit-Stitch Leather Goods
You’ve likely heard of cambridge satchel company, but what about Brit-Stitch? Just one year old, the British accessories brand was technically conceived 45 years ago when master craftsman Peter Jones made a leather cash bag for his local milkman, Toby. In 2012, Toby brought his bag back for a replacement strap and Mr. Jones’ children decided it was time to give the vintage satchel a thoroughly modern makeover.
Nars Cosmetics to Create Andy Warhol Collection
Nars Cosmetics is giving Andy Warhol another 15 minutes of fame with a new color cosmetics collection expected this fall. Nars Andy Warhol — created by François Nars under a license with The Andy Warhol Foundation — is intended to evoke the cool, image-rich, character-laden world of Warhol in a limited edition collection said to showcase innovative packaging, formulas and shades. The project, which will be launched in the U.S. in October and elsewhere in November, is said to be the brand’s largest strategic collaboration to date.
What's the sequel to "Orgasm" blush?
Today, we tried to explain NARS' orgasm blush to Nick Bloom-Scaglione, our online art director and a certified dude. Attempts included: "It's meant to mimic the flush in your face after... you know." "You know how girls are always trying to get 'bedroom eyes' and 'bedhead'? This is like that for blush." "It's supposed to look really sexy, okay?" Finally, we just caved and said it: NARS developed a pigment called "Orgasm" that simulates the natural "I just got laid and it was fantastic" glow that women hope to have on a daily basis. This month, they've developed something new: a color called "G-Spot" that's deeper and more intense than "Orgasm," and therefore great to wear at night. The color is only on sale as a holiday special, but since it's a full-size cosmetic stick, it should last you through spring, ensuring although Christmas only comes once a year, you can look like you... well.. you know. --FARAN KRENTCIL
