You want a piece of Britney?

Noul single al lui Britney, cel de-al doilea de pe albumul "Blackout", a fost deja lansat. In clip fosta sau actuala, cine mai stie, printesa pop arata mult mai bine, iar lookul ei aminteste de imaginea pe care o avea acum cativa ani. Cu peruca sau cu extensii, bine aplicate de data asta si outfituri dragute, in special vesta cu blana + jeansi si o silueta slim Britt pare ca a revenit la normal. Si melodia suna foarte bine.

Italy : Stefanel brand Q3 net sales rise 5.2%

The Board of Directors of Stefanel S.p.A. met under the chairmanship of Giuseppe Stefanel and approved the Group's consolidated results for the first nine months of the current year.

The Stefanel business unit has continued the process started in previous seasons of repositioning its brand with a view to turning it into an "accessible designer label". This process involves a substantial change in product and image with a consequent shift in customer base and inevitable effects on short-term performance.

Although the third-quarter figures and, particularly those relating to the Fall/Winter 2007 collection, reflect the difficulties and costs involved in such a sweeping change, they are starting to show the first signs of an improving trend in sales. In fact, the third quarter has reported a 10% growth in revenues, partly thanks to consistent comparative growth in sales of around 10% on the Italian market for the Fall/Winter collection.

The Interfashion business unit has reported positive results in the first nine months of the year, in line with expectations. In detail, revenues increased by 6.1% in the third quarter, during which the first collection bearing the High label started to be sold. The second line of the designer Antonio Marras also continued to be developed during the period, sales of which will commence with the Fall/Winter 2008 collection and which, along with the High label, will make up the new portfolio of brands produced and sold by Interfashion.

Germany : Time for beautiful stones comes again from Minerals Days


If you have not been to the Minerals Days Munich from 2 - 4 November 2007, you have really missed something: the special exhibition “Gemstones of the Himalayas“ presented the presumably largest and most valuable collection of gemstones from the countries around the Himalayas that has ever been seen.

Even celebrities such as the Sheik of Qatar or Reinhold Messner did not miss the chance to be present and were truly impressed by the variety and quality of stones. The most eye-catching stone was probably “The Asian Rose“, a white, light-flooded tourmaline crystal ready to unveil its deep-red soul to viewers.

In three exhibition halls, more than 1,000 exhibitors from 52 countries presented a colourful and glamorous potpourri: diamond, aquamarine, ruby, rock crystal, amber and many more both in their natural forms and incorporated into rings, chains, balls, lamps or massage rollers.

The broad range displayed attracted over 38,000 visitors to the Minerals Days Munich, almost 10% more enthusiasts of the beautiful stones and natural treasures than in 2006.

Another highlight of the largest fair for minerals, fossils and gemstones were the extremely beautiful “fossils from Monte Bolca”: imprints of fish and plants that took visitors on a time travel 50 million years back.

Whether crocodile, jellyfish or angelfish – every living creature leaves its mark. The Natural History Museum Verona presented top collectibles that many a collector would like to call his own.

All black Victoria

Victoria este vazuta foarte rar purtand aceeasi rochie de doua ori. Paparazzi au fotografiat-o la iesirea din magazinul ei preferat imbracata in rochia What Comes Around Goes Around pe care a mai purtat-o acum cateva zile. Outfitul all black este completat de manusile din piele, un cardigan, pantofii Christian Louboutin, o bratara mare, ochelari, bineinteles DVB style, si geanta Louis Vuitton Lockit bag. Dupa cum arata nu pare deranjata de temperaturile scazute, in Londra este aproape la fel de frig ca si la noi.
Victoria a primit deja un prim cadou de Craciun, de la cine altcineva daca nu de la David, care i-a oferit o carte - "Valentino Garavani: First name in fashion", 1500$. Probabil asta va fi prima carte citita de ea, avand in vedere ca a declarat ca nu a citit nicio carte in viata ei. Dar a scris una, care mai este si best seller.

Kareena is known for not only experimenting with her looks to add that extra X factor but also for trying out different roles and doing justice to them. She perfectly defines the word ‘exemplary’ and maintains her image as a ‘Bollywood Diva’ ensuring that her list of fans remains intact.

USA : BelaHockey new hockey gear & apparel line for girls


BelaHockey, a new line of hockey gear and apparel produced exclusively for girls, is proud to announce the official launch of its web store becoming the first company to focus entirely on attracting girls to the sport.

Founded by a group of local hockey moms and hockey legend Cammi Granato, the women of BelaHockey are on a mission to expand the hockey apparel market and encourage more girls to take up the sport that has long been tailored to boys.

Until, girls interested in playing hockey often received the message that it’s a boys sport with all the equipment and clothing primarily designed for males.

Drawing from its founders’ personal experiences, BelaHockey is proud to offer an exclusive line of equipment and apparel for girls including long-sleeve cotton tee-shirts, pink and purple custom hockey socks, personalized polka dot hockey sticks and an innovative sports headband.

Traditional hockey gear such as socks and sticks have been updated and redesigned with fun graphics and patterns to allow girls to express their personality and style on the ice and are available.

“Growing up playing hockey, I was always one of the only girls, whether it was at home with my brothers or in the local youth league,” said Granato. “I was comfortable on the ice but felt self conscious in the lobby where it was clear that I was a girl playing a boy’s sport.

By offering girls hockey gear designed exclusively for them, we’re reinforcing that hockey is their sport too. We hope BelaHockey will motivate other girls to pick up a stick and try the great game of hockey.”

Animal print

Se stie deja: sezonul asta animal printul e la mare cautare. Ideea e ca cel care imita pielea de leopard se potriveste tuturor tipurilor de silueta, iar cel zebra este pentru siluetele zvelte. Nu este recomandata alaturarea mai multor pattern-uri de acest fel si nici acoperirea din cap pana in picioare cu animal print. Paris este un exemplu de "asa nu".

Sweden : Supermodel Alek Wek models Lindex Christmas lingerie


Christmas will be extra glamorous this year. Supermodel Alek Wek will model Lindex's Christmas lingerie, which brightens up the winter darkness.

"We chose Alek because she shows off our lingerie to fabulous effect. Alek is unique and expressive as a model, and highlights our collection phenomenally.

This, combined with her background, makes Alek a symbol for courageous women," says Johan Hallin, Lindex's marketing manager.

Born in Sudan, Alek fled to Great Britain with her family in 1991 to escape the civil war. She was discovered by a model scout in 1995.

Alek has modelled for names such as Issey Miyake, Moschino and Victoria's Secret, and has appeared in fashion shows for John Galliano. She also designs her own line of handbags, and released her autobiography, Alek, this autumn.

"This year's lingerie collection has an incredibly luxurious feel. It's characterised by contrasts, for example between matte/shiny and satin/velvet.

Shiny and metallic effects dominate the collection. The lingerie is like jewellery - gorgeous and wonderfully glamorous," says Inger Lundqvist, Business Area Manager Lingerie.

The campaign will run from November 14th up until Christmas in Sweden, Norway, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and the Czech Republic, on outdoor billboards and in Lindex stores.

Hong Kong : Special shoes to protect elephant feet


The GORE-TEX Hong Kong team came to the rescue of two of Singapore Zoo's Asian elephants in need of special footwear.

The intensive year-long effort by the zoo and W. L. Gore & Associates, creators of the legendary GORE-TEX fabric, recently culminated in the elephants being presented with comfortable yet protective footwear to help with their ongoing foot problems.

As the world's largest land animal, elephants naturally place an enormous amount of stress on their feet. Due to a bad stumble a number of years ago, Tun, the younger of the two elephants, has one front leg longer than the others.

As a result, she limps painfully and the extra pressure she places on the shorter front leg has created lesions on the sole of this foot. Meanwhile, 30-year-old Jamilah has lesions on the soles of both her front feet owing to her habit of swaying from side to side.

As Singapore Zoo veterinarian, Dr Sonja Luz explains, treatment has been difficult. "Try asking an elephant to take some weight off for a while," she jokes.

Dr Luz's team began thinking about ways to protect the elephant's bandages so that the lesions had time to heal. Tun's unbalanced walk also had to be addressed if she was to have a chance of full recovery.

"The best solution we could think of was some type of protective boot that was durable enough for elephant wear-and-tear and possibly also waterproof, it had to be made from a material that allowed the wound to breathe to prevent fungal infections. Most importantly, it would also provide comfort to the elephant."

"GORE-TEX fabric immediately came to mind," she says. In December 2006, Dr Luz contacted W. L. Gore & Associates in Hong Kong to seek expert advice on whether the breathable, waterproof technology of GORE-TEX footwear could possibly be adapted to footwear solutions for the elephants. The project immediately captured the hearts and minds of the product development team.

USA : Legendary Pink Cadillac to make debut in Mexico

Mary Kay Inc will commemorate the start of its 20th year of enriching women’s lives in Mexico with ribbon-cuttings at its brand new headquarters and distribution center, the anniversary of the Monterrey-based subsidiary’s establishment.

The approximately 49,000-square-foot headquarters and 144,000-square-foot distribution center, both located in the Nuevo Leon region of Northern Mexico, replace and are nearly double the size of the Company’s previous headquarters and distribution facilities located in Monterrey.

Mary Kay’s $20 million combined investment in the two sites reflects its steadfast commitment to Mexico, which has consistently ranked as one of the Company’s top-performing subsidiaries.

The new distribution center will focus on serving the needs of some 200,000 Mary Kay Independent Beauty Consultants throughout Mexico. The center features new technology designed to reduce operational time, verify the accuracy of orders and ensure safe delivery of products.

Mary Kay Mexico is among just three companies in Mexico who currently utilize this progressive technology for order fulfillment. Approximately 75 million units are expected to be shipped from the distribution center annually, increasing the Company’s business capacity by 50 percent and enhancing its longstanding reputation for providing excellent customer service.

Among the highlights of today’s festivities is the presentation of the famous pink Cadillac for the first time in Mexico. Seventeen Independent National Sales Directors in Mexico – who have earned the use of the most coveted incentive awarded by the Company and one of the most recognized brand symbols in the world -- will receive their car keys during a ceremony preceding the ribbon-cuttings.

"Our Pink Collection was very well received by our customers. It's great that we were able to add to our sales of pink ribbons with this collection and collect even more money for Pink Ribbon," says Sara Carlsson, acting Director of Corporate Communications at Lindex.

Lindex is also one of the main sponsors behind the Cancer Society's Pink Ribbon campaign. This year, all Lindex stores in Sweden, Norway, Finland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania were involved in raising money, collecting altogether 6 million kronor. The largest amount of 3.8 million kronor was raised in Sweden.

"Our vision is to find a cure for cancer and our goal is for 90 percent of all women diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015 to survive the disease.

Thanks to Lindex and its customers who got involved and raised money, we are closer to our goal. You all played an important part in the campaign and helped us achieve our results," says Ursula Tengelin, Secretary of General of the Cancer Society's Pink Ribbon campaign.

The money raised will go to breast cancer research. Part of the money will also go to BRO, the national organisation of breast cancer associations, which offers support to women with breast cancer and their families.
