There’s a big debate in the shopping world over the sale and usage of imposter goods, especially handbags. Should you or should you not carry a faker, a Frauda, Chanel, Vuitton, Hermes, etc.? Are fake handbags good for business because they are walking advertisements, real or not? Manufacturers are getting craftier at masking the subtle differences of fake bags, which in turn, is leading to greater product security and authenticity measures from authentic couture and design houses.[polldaddy
Here’s a great article from the Wall Street Journal on spotting a fake designer handbag.
We all need guidance at some point on our personal journey. If you’re a man, may I suggest a couple of simple ways to elevate your personal game of self-reliance, self-improvement and self-empowerment…
1. Google It – It’s like your interactive wife or partner, especially when you don’t have either.
2. Get the MANual by Glenn O’Brien, “How to Be a Man – A Guide to Style and Behavior for the Modern Gentleman”. Mr. O’Brien is GQ Magazine’s famed “The Style Guy” and is an expert at offering advice on putting your best foot forward. Though the title may be a little daunting and the verbiage can be thick at times, the book is a great way to open your heart to some new ideas at self-improvement and elevating your personal game in fashion, etiquette and overall fantasticness.
BE BRAVE – Ditch the fanny pack, unhook your cell from your belt loop, wear an undershirt even in Arizona.
Take yourself from boy to man with this manual. Find it at Anthropologie for under $30.
Target.com. An undershirt keeps yourself to yourself. Protects your fashion investment (the nice shirt you're wearing over it).
“Nail Files”, from the creators of “Jersey Shore”, takes viewers inside the upscale, unpredictable life of blonde bombshell business owner Katie Cazorla. Born and raised in upstate New York, Katie is now living the glamorous life in Hollywood, where she’s reinvented the nail salon experience with the launch of “The Painted Nail.” Her salon has become an overnight success and she plans to franchise “The Painted Nail” all over the world. The series follows Katie as she juggles running her salon while maintaining her fun, quirky relationship with Walter Afanasieff, a multiple award-winning music writer and producer who won the “Record of the Year” Grammy Award for producing “My Heart Will Go On” by Celine Dion, who is 20 years her senior.
Katie will be at Tempe Market Place Today and Tomorrow with her Mobile Spa Team for a bit of pampering from Katie herself. I’ll be there at 4 pm today! Hope to see you there.
“Bad Teacher” with Cameron Diaz and my celeb-crush Justin Timberlake is, well, bad. The best thing about the movie – the Lou’s on Cameron. If it wasn’t for the shoes, I would have walked.
