Imagine if life
came with a handbook to help get you
through just about every potentially
awkward, stressful, or over-the-top
situation, with humor, grace, and
dignity intact. Life doesn't come with a
handbook—but now business does. In
Career and Corporate Cool™, style and
marketing maven Rachel Weingarten
defines and details the elements
necessary to succeed and stand out in
the modern work environment. It's filled
with witty and user-friendly advice on
building your personal brand equity in
the business world while staying true to
yourself. A hybrid of business and
style, it's a cheat sheet for your
professional life, with fun and helpful
anecdotes from people who've been there.

While an off-color joke generally won't
play in a cubicle environment, it can be
a job requirement for a professional
comedian. Fortune 500 companies tend to
frown on perceived sexual harassment in
the workplace while massage therapists
touch naked strangers on a daily basis.
Career and Corporate Cool™ helps you
understand not only what's appropriate
and acceptable in your own work
environment, but how best to translate
and incorporate your personal style into
the accepted mix. |

Hello Gorgeous! Beauty Products in America -
'40s-'60s
by Rachel
C. Weingarten |

|
"For
a glimpse of what cosmetics marketing used to
look like, flip through the recent book “Hello
Gorgeous!” a collection of beauty-product
advertising images from the 1940s, 50s, and
60s."
Rob Walker,
New York Times Magazine |
|
" Few
people recall that Barbra Streisand tore her
dress that night she held her Oscar in the air
and said, "Hello, Gorgeous!" Now, Rachel
Weingarten tears the fancy frock off the beauty
industry in a gorgeously illustrated and
hilarious book." -
Buck Wolf,

Since
ancient times, women have fantasized about the
proverbial fountain of youth. A recent report
states the international cosmetics industry is
worth about $150 billion dollars annually. To
put this in historical perspective, in 1949, the
annual income hovered at considerably below
$2,000.00 per capita. In our own times, there
are face creams and treatments that retail for
$2,500.00 for a monthly supply. In Hello
Gorgeous! Rachel Weingarten explores not only
the history of cosmetics in the mid last
century- but also the ways that advertising,
formulations, exhortations and attitudes about
women's spending power have evolved.
