Daily digest
WWD: The newest, low-priced edition to the Calvin Klein stable, Calvin Klein Casual (a rather dumb name, I think); the top ten independent specialty stores; do we really need $4,000 jeans? (2nd item); and a Jimmy Choo store for Palm Bitches.

NYDN: Tidbits; sales; and about 200 words on a cool-sounding make-your-own jewelry shop in Brooklyn. (Um, okay, the Daily News' fashion page sucks.)

The Daily: Nanette Lepore gets political; The Daily steps into the Cathy Horyn vs. WWD smackdown; everyone loooooves Tom Ford; and Ugg handbags (I'm thinking not so much on that one).

Elle.com: Runway beauty trends; and beauty tips from Beyonce's makeup artist.

Hintmag.com: In Shop Tart, Lagerfeld Gallery, Yohji Yamamoto, Celine, and more; and lots of new products in Beauty Duty.

Tale of Two Cities [via Gawker]: More debate over the poncho (I posted a comment; there are some rabid anti-poncho folks here).

Go Fug Yourself: Heather and Jessica urge you to just say no to leggings.
