Talented Blonde’s Mall Redux: “Less Bad Doesn’t Mean Better”If you are a frequent reader of Talented Blonde, then you know that I am extremely bearish on the consumer right now. Although I am considered by many as a stocks commentator, I believe I separate myself from a lot of other media pundits, in […]

Remain Calm! All is well! That’s what the media-and the current administration– want you to think. Green Shoots. But I disagree. Look at Jobless claims. Look at the new home foreclosure data.

Ok, you all know that The Talented Blonde is very close to Dov Charney and is a Lover of the (APP) American Apparel. So right after the earnings call tonight Dov shared his thoughts with me vis a vis the $5 Million Bill Board that Woody Allen just cost him in a ridiculous settlement for […]

Here’s one more reason to love this Japanese retailer owned by the publicly-held Fast Retailing (TYO:9983). They collaborate with huge vendors to keep profits high and your prices low! Watch the saucy video here:

So, The Talented Blonde hates victory laps . . . but, you can’t deny that Japanese phenom FAST RETAILING kicked major retail ass-ets this December–a Herculean task in the global recession we are all in. Go with me BEHIND the brand, as I interview Shin Odake, the COO of UNIQLO, their hottest concept and new SOHO […]
