"All of the items in the collection were given to the Duchess by Edward VIII, with whom she had an affair."

wow. classy way to discount one of the most famous romances of the 20th century - which culminated in Edward's abdication and MARRIAGE to Wallis Simpson.

The Hilfiger residence doesn't read as comfortable at all. It's pretty tense. Or maybe pretense?

The only reason I clicked on this was that cute little jewel-spotted cat (leopard? jaguar?).

I find the Chanel bag increase absurd, especially in this time of global belt-tightening. Not that anyone poor can afford one--but still. I find the "tribute" to Alexander McQueen ghostly/ghastly. And finally it should be noted that the Duchess of Windsor (Wallis Simpson) not only had an affair with Edward VIII, they were married. One last note (by the way I love this feature despite my complaints) think about Hilfiger's apartment every time you buy any of his clothes. The mark up is insane.

20% Chanel, really?! They definitely want to give their business to counterfeiters.

the price increase in chanel bags will not only result in more exclusivity but more people going to knock-offs made by other legitimate companies as well as the street kiosk type. good going chanel

"All of the items in the collection were given to the Duchess by Edward VIII, with whom she had an affair." Sloppy journalism. In fact, has this caption writer ever heard of Edward VIII and Wallis Simpson?

Here's what really happened: Edward VIII fell in love with Wallis Simpson and married her. "Affair" the way the HP headline writer used it, gives the impression that their love was illicit when, in reality, neither one of them were married to anyone else, although she was a divorcee at the time and the king couldn't marry her AND keep the throne. Because of that, he gave up the throne to marry her.

She was well known for her exceptional skills in the bedroom.

It is also said that the Wallis was kind of a dominatrix and Edward had a very passive personality. He would never have made a strong King and she was more like his mother.

The subtle butt and fingernail thing made this slide show worth viewing.
They make a blanket that does the same thing as subtle butt. It is supposed to save marriages.
Subtle Butt. HAHAHAHA!

Wallis Simpson 'had an affair' with Edward VIII? No, he was forced to give up the crown for her since the English would not approve of an American Divorcee as the queen. That unfortunate chain of event brought us Charlie "The Tampon" and Camilla.

'A recent QVC poll discovered that women peak in terms of beauty and confidence at the age of 31. Seventy percent of the people surveyed said that confidence is the most important factor in a woman's attractiveness, with physical beauty not far behind.'

A QVC poll? As in the shopping network thing? I guess this will push their audience to buy more of the over-priced BS wrinkle cream the lame celebrities hawk in one of their 3 rings?
