...return of crayon-color hues in the latest fashions, the casual look of America's prep-school set is chic again. Standard-bearers of the style like Lacoste, maker of the alligator-adorned polo shirt, and Sebago, of Docksides fame, have relaunched their hallmark items with a modern flavor.

Both drinks boast about half the carbs, sugar and calories of regular colas while promising a fuller flavor than diet sodas.
