Mixing Coca-Cola and Absolut
No matter where in the world I travel – and I do my share – if I pick up a bottle of Coca-Cola, I know what I’m getting. It’s the same when I spot that familiar bottle of Absolut in a local market. There’s no mystery about what’s inside.I don’t typically mix Coke and Absolut, but in this case I will. These are two brands that are globally known, highly respected, and unfailingly consistent. And they’ve each reached this pinnacle by a relentless focus on the customer.

We're Surrounded. (And It's a Good Thing.)
If there’s anything I like less than moving, I can’t think of it right now. Oh, okay. War. Pestilence. Hunger. Stuff like that. But moving isn’t far behind. Even the obligatory moving cuisine of beer and pizza can’t make the badness go away.We’ve just wrapped up moving day at the home office of Levi Strauss & Co. Many of my colleagues and I had been holed up in temporary quarters – just across the way here at Levi’s Plaza – while workers fully renovated the main building.

Ari Gold's Assistant -- A Dream Job???
If there’s one job I would not want, it’s being the assistant to Ari Gold, the abrasive manager on the HBO series Entourage. I’ll leave that to actor Jonathan Keltz, who plays the role of Jake.Even if you don’t have HBO – or a television, for that matter – you’ve no doubt heard of the cable channel’s comedy/drama take on life in Hollywood.

Wash My Jeans? Hardly.

(Business news, financial updates and, now, fashion tips. Who knew?)

Wear What Fits. Rock Your Curve!
Let’s just say this – when a woman finds a pair of jeans that fits AND makes her look and feel fabulous, well, it’s nothing short of a fashion miracle.
That being the case – there were miracles galore this last Friday in Bryant Park where around 2,000 women lined up to donate a pair of jeans to Goodwill and receive a personalized fitting for a free pair of Levi’s® Curve ID jeans.

Bloggers: Levi's® Curve ID Fits!
“All asses were not created equal.”That’s the memorable marketing phrase from the folks behind – ahem! – Levi’s® Curve ID, a new fit system for women’s denim. The words certainly resonated with New York-based fashion bloggers who recently attended an invitation-only event at the brand’s Soho store.

Chilly in London
Sometimes you can submerge yourself in London culture. Sometimes you need an escape. Tucked away, last night, inside the bare-bricked surroundings of Levi’s flagship store, pianist, singer and entertainer, Chilly Gonzalez provided just that– a place to get away.

Fetterman v. Colbert
Few people can comfortably take on comedian-turned-faux-conservative-personality Stephen Colbert under the bright lights of his Comedy Central TV set. But one person who can is Braddock, Penn. Mayor John Fetterman. And he has proved it again.
