Jack Spade shop is robbed on 56 Green Street in New York City TWICE and the robber is immortalized in a book


Only in America do we pay homage to a thief that has robbed a store TWICE in 40 days…
This is the best story we have heard in a while and it deserves a mention.
The Jack Spade store was robbed TWICE in 40 days by a robber who broke in with a LOG and stole a Log Carrier and other items. He was arrested and once out of jail returned within 40 days to steal the additional items he wanted. This time he only left with 3 items. Of course the police saw him on the surveillance video and recognized him the 2nd time and he was arrested again this time at his home.
The story was so funny to Jack Spade and Co. they decided to make a comic out of the break – ins called Breaking & Entering.
This book is now available only at the Jack Spade store on 56 Green Street until the end of August for $15. If you are not in the New York City area and want one, call them 212 625 1820. They will charge send you one.

Oscar De La Renta presents his 2009 Resort collection at the Keep Tahoe Blue Event on August 2, 2008



This year on August 2nd, 2008 Oscar De La Renta presented his Resort 2009 Collection to benefit the League to Save Lake Tahoe. This is a yearly event where Oscar De La Renta and Saks Fifth Avenue sponsor the event hosted at the Fritz family home on the west shore.
I was in Tahoe during this event and wanted to tell our readers all about it for the next time you are in Tahoe. For $350 you can get in to the event, enjoy the luncheon, and donate to a charity to keep the Lake in Tahoe beautiful and pristine. Apparently this event raises $500,000 each year. For $3,500 you can get 2 front row seats.
Next year, make an excuse for charity’s sake and go to Lake Tahoe stay and have dinner at Wolfdale’s, have a wet woody at Garwoods, a coffee at Syd’s, wakeboarding on Lake Tahoe, and just go for a nature walk around the Lake. Lake Tahoe is definitely still a great place to visit.
Of course I had to find you something that you will love from Oscar De La Renta and my favorite thing this week is the python clutch.
I am in love with python and this shining mini box clutch in eye-catching python patent leather by Oscar De La Renta cannot be missed in the Anthracite color which is the gray color. Golden set strasse closure opens to satin-lined interior. So elegant and great for an event or just a casual night out.
