...wears long coats too, doesn't she? She does wear a lot of long coats. It's summer now, so we haven't been seeing her in them, but certainly all through the fall she wore a lot of long coats, which made great sense. She really chooses unusual colors. She doesn't often go with the traditional spectrum: red, cobalt. She does not do that. She does chartreuse, she does teal. The red that she uses is a kind of tomato; it has an orange tint to it.

...predicting that a CIT failure would cause as much havoc in the financial market as the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers did last fall. CIT, which was founded 101 years ago, lends to hundreds of thousands of small businesses and also provides money to other firms, called factors, that help small businesses finance their day-to-day operations. In late 2008, the Treasury Department gave CIT $2.3 billion in federal assistance from TARP funds.

Between now and then, White House officials...
Elric Petit, interior designer I like to breakfast in the Art Deco interior of the Royal Library, tel: (32-2) 519 5311. From my usual table, I look across the city and fall in love with it all over again. Following breakfast, I like to browse at Own, tel: (32-2) 217 9571, a good designer store filled with new names like N. Hoolywood from Japan, Acne and Whyred from Sweden and Belgium's own Atelier 11. After shopping, I'll reward myself with a good French Bordeaux at a new wine bar in Ixelles, Le Petit Canon...
