The British newspaper the Evening Standard reports that Madonna and Guy Ritchie have reached an agreement in their divorce proceedings. The couple will share custody of sons Rocco and David (they had apparently been arguing over whether the kids would be raised in New York or London). And Ritchie is not getting any of Madonna's estimated $450 million fortune, which he could have attempted since they did not have a pre-nup. A source said, "It will be all over by the end of the month. I am sure it will be announced by then. The priority for him has always...

Here it is, folks -- and in a nice earthy brown to boot. A Curbed operative spotted the new Gucci "Eco Flagship" store greening up at 240 Stockton. So much for that June opening, but in the nick of time for the holiday shopping slag. The Energy Star rated space shaped up some months behind schedule, but it looks like the slow economy might've taken a bit of a toll on the luxury outfitter. Pro tip: brown is the new green is the new black. · Storefronting: Gucci Eco Flagship Greens Union Square [Curbed SF] [image courtesy flickr photog...
New London shopping centre Westfield is aiming to launch itself as a luxury fashion-savvy brand by having popular fashion magazine Grazia edited from its environs.

The magazine put together that week will be sold as a special edition, ‘Grazia Live’. With such a stunt, Westfield hopes to grab the interest and the cash of a wealth of shoppers at the massive new fashion Mecca, which includes retail units from designer...
Nothing wrong with helping mend the huge city deficit by putting up ads right on city property, right? Billboards are already filling up the skyline, and advertisements have even begun to wrap themselves around the subway cars...but what if they were on a garbage truck? amNY reports that one estimate shows that "the city could generate up to $10 million to put toward billions in deficits by selling ads on garbage trucks and city vehicles." What surface of the city isn't marketable to a client at this point? Vanessa Gruen of the Municipal Art Society says told the paper that:...
STYLE BUZZ: I’ve been seeing studs and rhinestones everywhere, making me wonder if the Bedazzler is making a comeback? I spent many quality hours of my childhood tediously bedazzling the Debbie Gibson logo into my jean jacket, which is why all this gaudy embellishment is making me feel so nostalgic.

Another week, another serving of Eater SF. [Press Club; Eater SF photog Jennifer Yin] 1) Eater Inside: A very pretty Press Club opens; wine bars: pretty.

From Serious Eats It's pretty sneaky, but not well-executed. A Las Vegas man sent around a letter to upscale places like the Ritz-Carlton Dining Room, Aqua, and Fifth Floor with the following gripe: a table attendant accidentally ruined his wife's Gucci blouse with a greasy plate. He wants $51 for dry cleaning. But he didn't customize any of the letters, and now they're onto him. Eater SF has the full letter....
For some of us, buying a new bag is a big investment, and you want it to match (or at least "go with") the rest of your accessories – including your gadgets. If you're a cohesive color shopper, but can't throw down for that new Gucci, fear not. Make like Louise from the SATC movie and rent it! Renting is becoming as popular and as easy as Netflix, and now it's not only restricted to bags.

Darlin’ you look absolutely divine in that new iGoogle theme! You must tell me the name of your designer?

So depending on what you’re interested in, there’s lots of great art to choose from to suit your...
LOUIS VUITTON AK-47 7.62×39mm GUCCI MP-5 9mm Justin Melnick is an avid photographer, digital artist, and has spent time oversees in the Middle East. All of these influences have come together in his latest project, titled ARM•ME Melnick imagines — quite vividly — what Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Pucci, and Chanel would add to standard ammunition. The exhibition starts September 2nd at Gallery 385 in New York City. The outcome is a compelling statement that questions how we — individually and as a nation — spend our money, contrasting the abundance of weaponry with the scarcity of high-end luxury goods...
