Amazon’s Big Spring Sale has gobbled up most of my attention this week, but there are also good sales going on at Abercrombie & Fitch, Banana Republic, and Bloomingdale’s, to name just a few.

Printemps Opens in New York City

1 month ago | nymag.com | Hilary Reid |Kitty Guo

Although “not a department store” is spray-painted across its façade, the new 55,000-square-foot Printemps, the first from the 160-year-old French chain to be opened in the U.S., is, for all purposes, a department store (just one that hired a graffiti artist to indicate otherwise). It’s no surprise Printemps wants to avoid the D-word, but opening anything of this magnitude is a big bet.

This year, I found myself yearning to branch out into fun tights — think glittery accents, zany prints, or a splash of color.

Illustration: Arnaud Boutin Music producers Tamer Malki and Rami Abousabe, members of the DJ duo Bedouin, are constantly on the road playing late-night shows to enthusiastic ravers, often until the crack of dawn. “We work in a very high-intensity environment — loud music, a lot of people, a lot of energy,” Malki explains.
