Always thinking

Pantyhose and Spanx

Lin called me at night to "discuss" the business opportunity of manufacturing Pantyhose (hoisery). I have no idea what that is, but the opportunity sounds like one. However, I am a bit worry about her as an entreprenuer cuz she does not have much operational experiences at all. If it were someone experienced I'd be more interested.

I did stop by Norsdrom today to check out what the hell pantyhose is. It took me about 5 min to find out it's women's wear and top brands are wordloud (most expansive), dana something(bigger size), spanx(accurate size), calvin klaine (size tends to be small). Of course, it's Spanx's colorful (all red) packaging and sexy name caught my eye. Here is founder's startup story:
