Hypebeast4 days ago
French-American designerSophie Lou Jacobsenwants to bring poetry to everyday life with her whimsical glassware.
The designer's latest collection Le Verre Bonbon, expands upon her popular Bouquet line, drawing its forms from the delicate natural shapes of blooming flowers. With their glossy, clear materiality and naturalistic texture, the glass vessels, including the Pitcher, Small Bowl, and striped cups, elevate life's quiet moments and joyful gatherings.
The Pitcher leads the range with its delicately coiled handle and gently rippled body, ideal for serving cool drinks at Summer evening dinners or Sunday brunches. Designed with a gently curving silhouette in clear glass, the piece mirrors the organic fluidity of fan-shaped blooms. Additionally, the Small Bowl follows a similar sensibility with its softly rippled rim. Boasting a low profile and compact size, the bowl enhances the role of sides like soups, side salads, or shared dips with elegant appeal.
Finally, the glasses offer a colorful accent of the largely clear range. Irregular pastel stripes that follow the curve of the glass run vertically from the bottom, adding a fun and whimsical accessory to the table. Available in multiple colors and two sizes, the glasses add to Jacobsen's growing breadth of drinking glasses, including popular silhouettes like the Ripple glass.
The latest additions to Sophie Lou Jacobsen's tableware line are available now at thedesigner's web storeand select stockists.

Jamie Dimon has total dad hobbies

When he's not in JPMorgan's boardroom, Jamie Dimon says he is out hiking and barbequing. In an episode of the "Acquired" podcast released on Wednesday, JPMorgan's CEO said that he was taught to always have a purpose. His "hierarchy" of priorities is family — he has three adult daughters and several grandchildren — country, and working at the bank. Besides that, he has a list of dad-style hobbies. "One of my daughters said, 'Dad, you need some hobbies.' And I said, 'I do. Hanging out with you, family travel, barbecuing, wine,'" Dimon said. He added that his family now likes whiskeys and that he loves to read and learn history. He said that he cannot play tennis anymore because of his back, but he goes hiking. "I don't buy fancy cars and stuff like that, but this gives me purpose in life beyond family and beyond country," Dimon said. He also said that he can't imagine playing golf. Dimon, 69, is frequently asked about his retirement plans and what succession at the $800 billion bank could look like. As he usually does, Dimon said on the podcast that he plans to lead the bank as long as he has the "energy" for it. Still, he shared what he might do when he's no longer at JPMorgan. "When I'm done with this, I don't know, I'll teach and write. I may write a book like Andrew Russin did," he said, referring to another asset manager. "But I have got to do something. And I'm not going to twiddle my thumbs and smell the flowers." A representative for Dimon did not respond to a request for comment from Business Insider. Dimon's mainstream American dad hobbies are a contrast from some Wall Street execs' quirky pastimes. Goldman Sachs' CEO, David Solomon, likes to DJ. Solomon has released remixed tracks through his Instagram account and Spotify. Before 2023, he performed half a dozen times a year, often at high-profile events like Lollapalooza. Ray Dalio, who founded Bridgewater Associates, said he practices transcendental meditation and is an avid hunter, including large wild animals in Africa.

Chris Russo reveals police were called on him during international travel meltdown: ‘What a disgrace!'

Everyone's got some nightmare travel stories, and for Chris Russo, he aired out his most recent disaster for more than 10 minutes straight during his 'What Are You Mad About?' segment of ESPN's 'First Take' on Wednesday. The man known as 'Mad Dog' took a recent vacation to Europe, which included a few fiascos, including one in which he had police called on him while he threw a rage fit in London. Russo's trip began with a JetBlue flight out of JFK en route to Edinburgh. 'You want to fly to Scranton, P.a.? Jet Blue is for you!' Russo yelled. 'You want to fly to something a little more elaborate like to freakin' Edinburgh? What a disgrace! They kept people on that plane 'til 1:44 in the morning and threw them the hell out of there!' Russo was headed to Dornach, Scotland, for some father-son golfing. Russo's son, Tim, had to go from Phoenix to Dallas to London to Inverness — and then drive to Dornach, Switzerland. Tim's golf clubs got a bit lost in the shuffle. 'It took me two and a half hours to locate the clubs at Heathrow. They didn't know where they were!' Russo ranted. 'My son needs the golf clubs for crying out loud! Couldn't find them. We finally found the golf clubs. I had the ticket stub, I put Timmy on FaceTime. 'Timmy, will you tell the people here that the golf clubs are yours and your father, who paid for them, wants to take them out of the airport so I can get you your clubs the next day?' They wouldn't let me take the clubs out of Heathrow! 3 Chris Russo's trip began with a canceled flight. First Take/ESPN 'So Timmy's clubs had to stay at Heathrow overnight and he didn't have his golf clubs on Saturday because British Airways…wouldn't give it to his father!' Russo continued. 'Here's their answer, 'It's protocol, sir.' I'm not interested in protocol! I'm interested in the 5 iron! I am not interested in that! And they called the police on me! I'm a loud American! 'We're gonna get the authorities.' I don't give a crap about authorities, get the golf clubs where they're supposed to be!' 3 Chris Russo's travels continued to get worse. First Take/ESPN 3 Chris Russo ranted for more than 10 minutes about his international travel troubles. First Take/ESPN Russo managed to avoid any sort of arrest or detainment, playing his cards right when they arrived. 'Almost,' he said when asked if he got arrested. 'The cops came, I said, 'I'll be okay, calm down.''

Iconic restaurant chain turns to TV in comeback attempt

Every classic American sitcom has a signature hangout spot seen in multiple episodes. Whether a coffee shop or a diner, these places have a nostalgic air and familiarity that remind us of our own lives. Founded in 1965 in New York City, this restaurant became that real-life go-to staple where families could gather, share a meal, and connect after a hectic day. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter TGI Fridays was that beloved place - even its name stands for everything it represented. But in 2024, the chain quietly began closing locations nationwide, citing a desire to boost growth by shedding underperforming restaurants.

TGI Fridays was $37 million in debt but secured financing, which allowed the remaining 85 restaurants to proceed with regular operations. Image Source: TheThe restaurant chain is now looking for new ways to boost business after losing market share to its rivals, and it's hoping a beloved TV network will entice customers. TGI Fridays has partnered with Warner Bros. Discovery's (WBD) Turner Broadcasting System (TBS) to launch "The Flavor Show," a new limited-time promotion at participating locations nationwide. More Food News: Popular chicken chain is begging customers to give it another chanceChick-fil-A offers free food to game-playing fansAfter big cuts, Starbucks' menu gets 'secret' new additions TBS manages nostalgic networks including TBS, TNT, and Turner Classic Movies. To capitalize on that vibe, the TBS Trio is a massive platter of tots, boneless wings, and sliders (or TBS - get it?) served over fries, all for $15. This new offering is big enough to share. But that's not all. TGI Fridays is also releasing a new summer menu with exciting additions focusing on innovation and trends. Specialty drinks have become all the rage in the food industry due to the massive traction they have gained among younger generations. This has prompted major food chains to expand their offerings by launching new beverage options to remain relevant in a challenging market. TGI Fridays refuses to fall behind its competitors again, so it's expanding its beverage menu by introducing Dirty Sodas. These non-alcoholic beverages blend a soda base, like Coca-Cola or Dr. Pepper, with syrups, fruit, and cream. The restaurant chain is making these unique sodas even more fun and earning extra revenue by suggesting liquor shot pairings for $3 more. The new Dirty Soda pairings are Cherry Cream Cola with Jack Daniel's, Strawberry SZN with Malibu, Dr. Vibe with Hennessy, and Dirty Sunshine with Tito's Vodka.

The new Whiskey Buffalo Sauce, which mixes Whiskey-Glaze and buffalo sauces, was made for those who enjoy an extra kick in their food. For those with a sweet tooth, the Celebration Sundae features vanilla ice cream, butter cake, brownies, and strawberries, finished with whipped cream and topped with chocolate and caramel drizzle, sprinkles, and cherries.
