RECENT PURCHASES I ♥

What if Urban Outfitters buys J.Crew?

In an intriguing piece of news I found out yesterday through J.Crew Aficionada, Urban Outfitters and Sears Holdings are currently both weighing a bid to buy the J.Crew Group (owner of J.Crew and Madewell). For those unfamiliar with the situation, in late November J.Crew Group announced an offer from TPG Capital and Leonard Green & Partners to take the company…

From our 5-hour drives to Cape Cod every summer when I was a kid, to taking my sister out to college in Cleveland, to my own college trip between Connecticut and Colorado. (I guess we have a thing for C places in my family.) Last spring two friends and I drove down part of…
