The 80's. *Sigh. An amazing decade when the shoulder padded power suit was an office staple and women were starting to make major headway climbing the executive ladder. Naturally what did these 80's She Office Ninjas do to spare their tootsies from the wrath of commuting in high heels? High Top Reeboks my friends.....worn over panty hose and sometimes scrunchy socks. Don't believe us? Please reference Melanie Griffith's 1988 box office hit Working Girl and check out Tess McGill's rad working commute kicks (mock-up below). [Read More]]]>

The RSP has totally geeked itself out lately and has gotten really into website building/design. Alas, its first non-RSP site launched today. The site? www.MeredithMcBrearty.com - showcasing the interior design portfolio and talent of savvy entrepreneur and dear friend of the RSP, Meredith McBrearty.

Since its inception, the RSP has had a love hate relationship with Facebook. Likes: reconnecting with complete blast from the pasts, being notified when to wish my roladex Happy Birthday, and tons of storage for photosharing capabilities. Thanks Facebook. Dislikes: Unwelcomed tagging/wall comments, the broken heart icon (TMI), and Farmville. No Thanks Facebook.
After an enraging article (err mostly pictures) that spread throughout much of the NYC finance community on Tuesday, [Read More]

Its official. The dear friend of the RSP, Evelyn Stevens, is out of control. She just keeps winning. Deservedly so, Evie Mania has struck. Note: The RSP recognizes that it is sad that it took a full page article in this month's Vogue to prompt this post (The RSP has already bought 10 copies.....page 150 folks.....we suggest you do the same!) but cough it up as an example of our ignorance re: the sport of cycling.
In order to do our part to spread the word about this incredible female individual, the RSP has collected the following media images detailing the highlights of her success since trading in her business suit for spandex. [Read More]

When I was in San Francisco a few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of having a meeting with fellow blogger and advocate for women in the workplace, Alicia Morga. Former venture capitalist, attorney, PE investment professional, IBanker, entrepreneur and CEO, Alicia Morga has found success time and time again in male-dominated professions. Now full-time blogger and author of www.AliciaMorga.com, Alicia is full of pearls of wisdom for tackling the business world and navigating life.
Example given. Alicia just recently posted an article on perfecting the art of public speaking to a small group. The RSP has selected 8 of Alicia's "How to Speak: Speech Skills" as suggestions to incorporate into your office toolkit: [Read More]
