To Gain Some Cred – Gucci – Opens A ‘Pop-Up’ Store in Soho!
.
Gucci opened a ‘pop-up’ store at 143 Crosby Street in Soho on Saturday – for a short two week run – or ‘until stocks run-out’! Which maybe sooner (big question on ‘maybe’)! This new store highlights the Gucci Ronson sneaker collection – a collaboration between DJ Mark Ronson and Gucci. The brain child of Frida Giannini – Gucci’s Creative Director and an avid music fan – the store might very well be an attempt to maintain some relevance in a period where Gucci has slipped off the radar for fashion’s most forward. Ronson, a sneaker enthusiast, has skewed his designs ‘preppy’ in limited edition styles that will retail for between $500 and $600 a pair! I say good luck to them and to those who need those ‘GG’ logos and are silly enough to pay those prices!

Great tips! Thanks for posting this:-)
Between me and my husband we’ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.
Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass’ favor.

I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)
This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.

I can see that you are putting a lots of efforts into your blog. Keep posting the good work.Some really helpful information in there. Bookmarked. Nice to see your site. Thanks!
Finally, an issue that I am passionate about. I have looked for information of this caliber for the last several hours. Your site is greatly appreciated.
If you’re still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you’ll know which is right for you.
