New York magazine's fall fashion issue features a lengthy profile on J. Crew president, Jenna Lyons. When I started reading it I thought I couldn't admire Lyons any more than I already do - she worked her way up in a national company and revitalized J. Crew from a fuddy-duddy lady brand into the coolest thing for ladies of all ages. But lo and behold, there were a slew of facts about the California native that even the most obsessed Lyons follower wouldn't have known. So click through to find out more about Jenna Lyons. (Bonus fact: Her workspace is cooler than yours... and ours too.)

On Tuesday, I attended Katy Perry's concert in Detroit. She was fantastic! Dynamic is the proper word. It was the perfect journey of performances. Just when it got a little theatrical, she'd come out with something intimate--like an acoustic version of "Big Pimpin'."
