I will boycott Blacks

http://www.blacks.co.uk/equipment/054830-lowe-alpine-women-s-eclipse-nd15-daypack-sage-pumpkin.html

I recently ordered this backpack on-line from Blacks because it was advertised as a women's specific fit.
When it arrived, the product label said that it was a men's pack.
The Lowe Alpine website confirmed this: http://lowealpine.com/uk/shop/mens/lightweight/eclipse-15-4


 





Black's customer service dealt with my complaint by quoting their own website listing, asserting that they were correct.
According to Black's both the manufacturer and the product label are incorrect.
Are they crazy?

I will boycott Blacks.

Hunger Games ripping off an old photoshoot?



The new Hunger Games poster is reminiscent of a Cha Sun Hwa photoshoot...
Isn't this the exact same chair?
I'm pretty sure it is...
2011 photoshoot? http://www.redflava.com/2011/kgirls/cha-sun-hwa-fabulous/

Von 50

I have been looking at Von 50 of late.
They stock traditional French attire. It looks really nice. Like 1950's style.
The advantage of the clothes is that they don't date.
Virtually every picture on the site features a classic dress/skirt, appropriately coloured hosiery and simple, elegant shoes.
