Aw yea it’s that time of year again! While most of you are gearing up for the Olympics of cooking in yer kitchens, I am gearing up for the Olympics of shopping both off and online. Instead of feeding you a bunch of nonsense deals on stuff you really don’t care about, I’ve decided to ONLY give you the heads up on items I am interested in, i.e., flatscreens, cameras, computers and awesome luxe items. Just a little FYI, these prices go into effect in some cases on Thursday (Wal-Mart has it’s stores open for 24 hours starting ON Thanksgiving) so be sure to check on line, etc., and I will try my best to give you a heads up on store hours via Twitter. Black Friday 2009! Let’s go!

Happy MLK day!! I’m going on Fox Business today at around 2ish to talk about if door buster sales and major mark downs on weekends like this one as well as President’s Day will effect over all retail sales. The short answer is: No. When you are about to be in a recession, the last thing on your mind is buying a flat screen that’s on a 75 percent mark down!! Instead, you are going to stock up on things like canned food, gas and band aids ( I get major blisters from my Prada sandals in the summer)!! Also, the retailers like Target, Macys J.C. Penny and The Gap Inc. are in a pickle right now. They have huge inventories they need to move and no one to purchase them. So- even if they offer some serious discounts to their merch, it’s not going to really have a huge effect on their profit margins. I realize no one can predict the future, but I wonder if retailers looked at sub-prime debacle more carefully and took that into consideration when stocking their shelves full of luxury goods, the retail industry would be in better shape. My prediction: everyone is going to start looking abroad because (as much as it breaks my heart to say this) America is just not where it is at right now. Sad.

What an amazing get for Target, BUT will it help its dismal December sales numbers??

Fashion Week Daily reports Liz Claiborne Inc., has tapped John Bartlett as the designer of Claiborne men’s sportswear line, and Isaac Mizrahi as the creative director of its flagship brand. All I have to say is: YAY. John Bartlett and I met while I was on a panel about trends and stayed in touch ever since. This man is INCREDIBLY talented and brilliant. I’ve only met Isaac once, but I love his line at Target. In fact, when my sister needed clothes for her internship last summer, 80% of her wardrobe was Isaac Mizrahi for Target. He must be doing something right- I would never put my baby sister in something I thought was fugly!!

 The point is- new talent is VERY important for these old classic brands. IF we really want to see a turn around in retail, let’s get some of that talent (new and old) out there!!
