The Anti-Hitch
20Apr10
Somewhere in Iowa, someone’s getting a good laugh. That someone is probably Will Smith’s alter ego in Hitch, Brad, Founder of iDUMP4U, a website where he does just that, breaks up with people (over the phone) on your behalf.
In the age of text, twitter, Facebook, email, instant messenger, is this really necessary? Apparently for some cowards out there, yes! Maybe coward is the wrong word; perhaps customers of this service are just too busy to be bothered. Breakups can be a real time commitment. Plus iDUMP4U averages a 24-hour turn around time (pending the availability of the dumpee to pick up their phone). Either that or someone can’t afford to leave a paper trail.
iDUMP4U charges $10/breakup ($25 if you’re engaged, $50 if you’re married). I can think of a few inconvenient breakups where $10 would have seemed like a bargain to just be done. However, I more

DVF Ups the Ante on FREE SHIPPING!
9Apr10
In my post from this morning (where I drooled all over the new DVF iPhone cover), I expressed some confusion over the promo code ‘DVFSHIPFREE’ that Diane von Furstenburg posted about on their Facebook page as well as some difficulties I was experiencing while trying to order it off their website.

But lets forget about that nonsense considering they shared an even better promo code with me! Use APRILSHIP at checkout during the month of April and receive free ground shipping on more

Another one bites the dust: So Long Shu Uemura
30Mar10
Get your Shu Uemura favorites (in store) while you can, L’Oreal has decided to close down the U.S. operations for the brand. While I will miss seeing their products at Barneys and Sephora, at least they will continue to be available on the Shu Uemura website. Phew! Considering every eyelash enthusiast swears by their curlers. Plus, I would hate to have to travel oversees just to buy their cleansing oil. Or would I?
So long Shu Uemura, your retail presence will be missed!

Kiehl’s Partners with Julianne Moore, Pharrell Williams, Jeff Koons & Malia Jones for Earth Day
19Mar10
Kiehl’s Since 1851 is at it again! Last year in honor of Earth Day the skincare brand teamed up with Adrian Grenier, Kelly Slater, Erykah Badu and Parsons The New School for Design to help raise $100,000 for Waterkeeper.
This year Kiehl’s is partnering with actress Julianne Moore, musician Pharrell Williams, artist Jeff Koons and pro-surfer Malia Jones. Each collaborator designed a Limited Edition label for their Acai Damage-Protecting Toning Mist and for every one sold, Kiehl’s is donating a 100% of the net proceeds (amounting to $200,000) to the Rainforest Alliance.
Jeff Koons is my favorite! Which is yours?
