With summer sadly coming to a close our attention goes from white to winter white. While the days of white pants after labor day (or September long) in the North are not SO taboo anymore, some brilliant marketing person devised the term "winter white". Whether you're down with the lingo the difference between summer and winter white is simply the brightness; winter white is softer, and [...]

It was hard to miss chatter about the movie 'The Intern' last week.
