Sales of Ivanka Trump items soaring

Here's a rare fashion post from me. Oh, if you are interested in Ivanka's clothing, jewellery, and cosmetic lines--click on the Amazon link below. Remember--it costs you nothing extra when you shop through Amazon on Marathon Pundit.

From CNBC:

Amid a tug-of-war between consumers who either love or loathe the Ivanka Trump brand, the company's president said it has rung up near record sales since Nordstrom dropped the collection from its stores in February.

In an interview with Refinery29, Abigail Klem — who took the reins when Donald Trump was elected president — said the label has recorded "some of the best performing weeks in the history of the brand" since the beginning of February.

That was the month when Nordstrom said that it had ended its relationship with the brand, citing weak sales. The department store's decision fueled a firestorm of controversy among consumers, some of whom applauded the brand, and others who said they would stop shopping at the chain.
