Top Marketing Influencer Adam Rivietz

New Nielsen Report: “The Unique Benefits of Influencer Marketing”

The unstoppable power of influencer marketing stems from its ability to win over the hearts of consumers and shift perceptions of a brand to boost its affinity.

In a brand new Nielsen report, “The Unique Benefits of Influencer Marketing,” the analysts break down how influencers are the future and in fact produce a 60% greater shift in brand perception metrics by speaking directly to audiences in an authentic and personal voice.

In this way they are more trusted than traditional advertising celebs. And rather than seem amateurish, the content of the influencers is perceived as unique, cool, visually appealing, of high quality, and ultimately, professional.

Trump’s Christmas Gift To America

TAX REFORM BECOMES LAW DELIVERING ON PROMISES FOR WORKERS TO KEEP MORE OF THEIR HARD-EARNED MONEY

Businesses Already Putting Real Money in Workers’ Pockets 

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Celebrating the signing of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act into law by President Trump, Independent Women’s Forum Senior Policy Analyst Patrice Onwuka offered the statement below:

“Today’s signing of the tax legislation is a win for President Trump, but ultimately more so for American workers and families. It’s been more than 30 years since we’ve had meaningful reforms to our tax code. Now, new generations will experience the blessings and prosperity of policies that accelerate economic growth, creating jobs, raising wages and spurring innovation.

“This bill delivers on promises to allow workers to keep more of their hard-earned money, makes American businesses more competitive, and simplifies our tax code. Businesses are already responding by making new investments, giving workers generous bonuses, and announcing new hiring.

“Our economy is showing signs of strength, but these reforms will lead to stronger markets, higher wages, and better-paying opportunities for Americans. It will be a happy holiday season indeed.”

URSZULA MAKOWSKA 

Fashion blogger Urszula Makowska reveals upcoming fashion trends for 2018

As the year comes to an end, we have seen many trends dominate the market from the bold red to oversized sleeves to off the shoulder tops, etc. With the new year around the corner, we will be seeing new trends to dominate the market and it will be time to say goodbye to those 2017 trends.

 

New color that will dominate the market

Forget about everything, for S/S 2018, we see a new color that will dominate the market. That color is lavender. We’ve seen it all on the runway from S/S 18 runway shows. From head to toe full-on lavender or just even a pop of lavender. I know I will be wearing a lavender suit from head to toe this upcoming season. It’s feminine and chic and the ideal spring color from the pastel colors that tend to be popular in demand during this time of year.

 

Although lavender will dominate the market, color blocking is classic spring trend that is not going away anytime soon. Shine bright like a diamond and pair of those bold colors. You can color block with a yellow trench coat and red dress underneath. There are plenty of ways to play around with this.

 

Well, what about the classic trench coat? Scratch that. We used to see trench coats during the fall. Now we will see the classic trench coat in different forms like we have never seen before during the spring. Belted with oversized belts, fringed on the bottom as a detail, and definitely a variety of different colors that make this trend unique.

 

The classic upgrade

The classic slip dress we all loved, will no longer be classic. The classic slip dress gets an upgrade.  It’ll be the perfect dress for a night out with friends. Sexier and edgier it’ll be the one piece we will want to have in our closet. We will find it in a variety of metallic colors.

 

Along with that, dark washed denim on denim is back. I know I definitely will invest in a two-piece set of dark washed denim. It looks so chic and is the perfect casual look for the girl out in the city. Either a jacket or pants or jacket and skirt will work just perfectly.

 

Fringe is still on!

Also, don’t forget to get your fringe on. Fringe is a continuous trend we will see and it is not leaving. We will see fringed feather dresses, fringe on our trench coats, and fringed tops everywhere. I will definitely get my fringe on.

 

As edgy and chic as I am, my favorite spring and summer trend is the sheerness. I love sheer tops and look forward to excitingly pair them with the midi skirts that are to be in style. It’s super chic and perfect for anywhere on the go.

 

Transparent shoes

And last but not least, my favorite trend of all times will be the transparent or translucent shoes. I have never owned a pair, but I am about to invest in a classic Yeezy’s from season 4, as it will dominate the season. Pair it with a cute two-piece set and you’re ready to go.

 

As we wait patiently for the F/W 19/20 trends, I can tell you for a fact we will see shades of browns, grays, and black. Layering will continue to dominate the market and anything from comfort will stay. Oversized sweaters, turtlenecks, woven pants, and puffers will be here to stay. We will see dark floral patterns and we will be bringing back goth.
