Rolex: Roger Federer, a world-famous famous tennis-star, is obsessed with his Rolex Day Date President at a time where young Hollywood stars have been found sporting newer styles by Cartier, Gucci, and Chanel. Rolex is a much more conservative brand and the Rolex Day Date President which Federer sports is a watch that has primarily worn by America’s CEO’S and presidents, including Eisenhower, Kennedy, Nixon, Ford, and, now, even Barack Obama and John McCain. What about this watch’s history is causing so much renewed interest among today’s Hollywood elite?

The Rolex Day Date is also known as the ‘President’ for a very unique reason. The chairman of Rolex presented President Eisenhower with the Rolex Day Date in 1948 to celebrate the victory over the Nazis in World War II. In 1956 Eisenhower’s watch needed a new solid gold bracelet and Rolex delivered to President Eisenhower a new bracelet with a concealed clasp. Soon after, this bracelet became known as the “President” bracelet and the Day Date watch was also nicknamed the “President” watch. Given President Eisenhower’s public love for the watch Rolex officially launched the wristwatch for public sale that year, in 1956 and it became a huge hit.

Rolex introduced a new version of the Day-Date this year, 2008. The new Day-Date watch, the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date II, has a new 41 cm case, larger than the old 36 cm case. It also features a Parachrom-blu hair-spring and Paraflex shock-absorber which makes it more resistant to shock and magnetism. Prestigious and classy, the Rolex Day-Date is available in white-gold, yellow-gold, rose-gold and platinum and are priced at around $20,000.00 retail or around $8000 from Preowned Rolex watch retailers such as Melrose Jewelers, http://www.melrosejewelers.com

Given Rolex’s recent boost in popularity it seems that, once again, America has fallen in love with all items affiliated with the Presidency. Both Barack Obama and John McCain have been seen sporting Rolex watches and as we enter an election period, the Rolex Day Date President may become more popular than ever.

*The finest A1 grade cowhide leather available. We do not believe in taking short cuts with our leather jackets by using the more commonly used, cheaper nappa leather. Instead, we offer higher quality analine cowhide but still keep the price down so you do not have to sacrifice the quality over price. We feel this leather is perfect.

As our jackets are made to order you have the luxury of receiving the leather jacket made just for you. Tall and slim or short and stocky? Not a problem, we will alter the torso and length to be just right for you. We understand that everyone is different. How can a standard size fit everyone? It cant.

*The styles. We stay as true as we can to vintage style leather jackets to make sure the look is authentic. The same applies to our movie replicas. We will get as close as we can and constantly update and perfect our leather jackets until it looks like you plucked it straight from the screen.

*Our service. We believe no matter how nice a product a store sells, it means nothing if the service lacks decency, understanding and patience.

Fertile Mind began as a one product company back in 1998 when founder Christine Kininmonth invented the Belly Belt for her own pregnancy.

Belly Belt expanded Christine’s regular suits so she could continue to present the TV news while pregnant.

Since then, Belly Belt has been taken up by almost every maternity and baby store in Australia, and is in almost all department store chains.

Belly Belt has been a regular success story on television business shows and has been nominated as a finalist in business awards.

Christine and her business partner Peter Hooker have now expanded Fertile Mind to include many other innovative products, including their own design – the original 6WayDress and clever nursing wear.

As well as hundreds of magazine articles, Fertile Mind was one of sixteen Australian companies selected for inclusion in “Made in Australia”, a book about Australian entrepreneurship sponsored by IBM.

On the export front, Fertile Mind products are now in 25 countries!

Christine still continues her media career and is a judge on prime time ABC TV’s The New Inventors program.

You can find out more about Fertile Mind by visiting the website - www.fertilemind.com - where you can see a full collection of products now available in the United States.

Belly Belt from Fertile Mind is a simple kit that elasticizes waistbands in regular clothes so they can be worn during pregnancy.

Fertile Mind president Christine Kininmonth says Belly Belt has changed the way Australian women enjoy the early months of pregnancy. “Hiding their condition from work colleagues is one of the reasons customers give for buying a Belly Belt”, she says. “You look and feel like you always have, while you adjust to the changes in your body shape.”

Fertile Mind’s success in Australia has led it to expand into the US, and the growth includes a move into nursing clothing. “Nursing clothing is a boom industry” says Peter Hooker, Christine’s business partner. “We specialize in nursing tops that, like the Belly Belt, reflect regular fashion trends.”

Seattle musician Jonas de Varona has designed a line of clothing and bags under the name Meet Me Here. The Fall 2008 line was previewed at the McLeod Residence on August 1st. It includes bags made from recycled materials sourced locally as well as tops and skirts made from hand painted silk, nylon and non woven fabrics. All pieces are made to order - cut and sewn by Jonas - and are available through the MMH website.

“The internet has leveled the playing field for independent businesses by allowing them access to a much wider audience than was possible 10 years ago,” said de Varona.

The Meet Me Here fall line is muted black white and grey tones. Crisp angular jackets accentuate bubble shapes with splashes of flowing bright blue, yellow and silver. The line expresses the designer’s love of structure and contrast creating a feel that is spacious and chic.

In May MMH caught the eye of art and design blogMan Made Lakes. August 1st marked the first show for MMH at the at the Mcleod Residence. The event was hosted by What Why Design, a new quarterly event showcasing emerging Seattle designers. This month MMH is featured in the October syle issue ofSeattle Metropolitan magazine along side of ferings from Barney’s, Nordstroms, and Impulse as well as other top boutiques.

“Most of the shapes I make are not flattering in a typical sort of way. this is because I like the architectural aspects of clothing. I’m much more interested in making a unique shape thats wearable than trying to flatter someone’s body,” said de Varona. “To me this is where the mystery lies.”

On Dec 11 MMH will participate in a gallery show at Vermillion gallery with Seattle designers Grey pants, I&M and others. The event will behosted by Join Design Seattle.

Jonas de Varona has played and/or recorded with Throw Me The Statue, Chocolate, Reggie Watts, Darius Wilrich, Joe Syverson and others.
