It’s On Sale: Rugby Ralph Lauren & Luciano Barbera 

There are two flash sales of note today: Rugby Ralph Lauren at RueLaLa and Luciano Barbera at Gilt.

The Rugby selection is limited, but they do have a few sweaters and a tartan duffle coat that I think looks like a nice alternative to all the solid colored coats you typically see. You should also know that Rugby’s own online retail site has added further price drops to their sale section, too, where you can buy a tuxedo jacket, pants a shirt for $520 altogether. 

The Luciano Barbera selection at Gilt has several fall sport coats that look ideal, however, the price is a bit steep. I know $700 isn’t exactly chump change to most people, but it’s almost a quarter of the retail price (if Gilt is to be believed).

I was scrolling through my Tumblr feed a year or so ago, when I saw a photo of Joyce Bryant. The caption said she was once dubbed the “black Marilyn Monroe” and was mentioned many times in Walter Winchell’s gossip column.

But, I had never heard of or seen Bryant before. It’s reactions like mine that led 42-year-old writer Nichelle Gainer to start a book project showcasing a collection of rarely seen historical photos of actors, educators, writers, students, musicians and more — all African-American.

“I write fiction for the most part, and when I am in libraries doing research … I’ve come across a lot of different interesting articles and photos that you never see anywhere else,” says Gainer, who has written for Woman’s Day, GQ, InStyle, Essence and Honey magazines. ”They’re just locked in these ivory towers, whether it’s an academic institution or a library.”

Gainer, who is still working on her book, decided to share her photo finds and now curates the Vintage Black Glamour Tumblr blog, Facebook page and Pinterest account. Much of what she posts are photos you likely haven’t seen before of stars you may know.
