17 WVU students model for charity benefit
par tiffanys, le 18 Mars 2010 à 03:43More than a dozen WVU students strutted down the runway in fashionable winter wear hoping to raise money for two organizations. The Saturday-evening event was a fundraiser for the WVU Public Relations tiffany Society of America (PRSSA and PRSSA) and the Mountaineer Boys & Girls Club, said show director Brandon Thomas. The two groups split the earnings. Funding for the Boys & Girls Club has decreased during the past few years, and Thomas said they wanted to help. "We really wanted to highlight the Boys & Girls Club," Thomas said. The show allowed everyone to take a break from their hectic schedules and enjoy fashion and help raise money for a good cause, he said. Seventeen WVU students participated as models and the PRSSA organized the tiffany rings. The models displayed clothing from Gap, Rue 21, Pacific Sun and Vanity. The show had four scenes and more than 50 people attended the showcase. One of the models, WVU senior Megan Puglisi said she watched the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show last week and got a few tips on how to work the runway. With only 20 minutes of practice at home she said she was ready to go. "I'm a natural," Puglisi joked. The fashion show shows people how important the Boys & Girls Club is to the kids, tiffany bracelets said. It also was a unique way to increase funds instead of a traditional fundraising program. "If we do something out of the box, it's going to attract a crowd," Puglisi said. WVU junior Ben Hancock agreed with Puglisi that the fashion show was a fun and different type of fundraiser. He added the event helps increase the club cash flow, but also allows the PRSSA students to practice their skills. One of Hancock's friends is involved with PRSSA and Hancock said when he heard about the event he jokingly asked why Hancock wasn't a model. The joke soon turned to reality as he became one. But, he said he had no problem and was excited for the tiffany cufflinks. "I thought it would be fun," Hancock said.

Old Navy Peddle Spring Fashions Amid Bone-Chilling Weather
par tiffanys, le 15 Mars 2010 à 03:37The snowstorms that blanketed much of the country in the past week caught apparel cufflinks in short-sleeves.
Most clothing chains have very little winter clothing left on their racks, the result of tightly managed inventories and better-than-expected holiday sales.
But with nearly 70% of the country covered in snow, store shelves are mismatched to the weather: filled with new spring fashions that frigid customers aren't in the mood to buy. The lack of appropriate dress could cost retailers some momentum after improved holiday and January sales periods, said analysts.
The Children's Place Retail Stores Inc. this week featured brightly colored polo shirts in its store windows, including a Manhattan location that closed its doors early Wednesday because of blizzard-like conditions. "We use our windows to highlight our latest fashions," explained a spokeswoman. Kohl's Corp.'s advertising for snow-earrings Silver Spring, Md., touts a President's Day weekend sale on flip-flops and children's swimsuits. Gap Inc.'s Old Navy stores currently hawks $2 lace-trimmed camisoles as "Item of the Week."
"The chances of shoppers buying a tank top or some shorts when it's 20 degrees and a foot of snow is much less likely" than in warmer weather, said Paul Lejuez, a senior retail analyst with brokers Credit Suisse.
An employee at a Gap store in downtown Washington, D.C., said the store had been sold out of cold-weather hats, scarves and gloves for over a month. A company spokeswoman confirmed that those items have been out of stores since the holidays. Gap stores and its sister-outlets Banana Republic still have "a good balance" of long-sleeved sweaters and long-sleeved T-shirts in stock, the spokeswoman said. "The weather is the hardest thing to predict," she said.
Even before this week's storms, February had brought a cumulative 939 inches of snow to 260 major cities necklaces the country, the most in 35 years, said Bill Kirk, chief executive of Weather Trends International, a forecasting firm with retail clients. Last year, the totals were only 224 inches.
In addition to dealing with the snow, which hit the East Coast as well as much of the Midwest, much of the country is hunkered down against severe cold. This is the second-coldest week prior to President's Day in 20 years, said Mr. Kirk. Last year, it was the second warmest.
Many retailers report their fiscal fourth quarter earnings in late February and early March and often given guidance based on the current trends, said Ann Poole, a retail analyst with Stephens Inc.
"A weak February sales trend could result in retailers introducing a more conservative forward outlook than the Street is expecting," she says.
The weather won't kill spring merchandise sales altogether, experts say, because February is the smallest sales month in many retailers' fiscal first-quarters, which typically end in April. Valentine's Day sales, which are centered on jewelry and intimate apparel, aren't affected by climate as long as shoppers can get to the stores, said Kimberly Greenberger, an analyst with Citigroup Inc.
Some retailers are stocking more wear-now merchandise than usual, as shoppers have been putting off purchases until the last minute.
Macy's Inc. said its My Macy's merchandise localization program, which lets buyers modify merchandise assortments based on local needs, helped it avoid shortages. A spokesman said Thursday that the department store chain planned for fresh flows of coats, gloves and hats in February and March in cold-weather markets. "Macy's tiffanys to have ample supplies of cold-weather merchandise," the spokesman said.
