Does This Brand Suck… Sneex?

Sarah Blakely built an empire with Spanx, a name that snaps with energy. But her new high-heeled sneaker line, Sneex? Let’s just say… we think it sux.

Why? Because it’s a little too sneaky. A name should tell you something about WHY you need the product, and this one misses the stilleto point. Watch this #tellthetruths video to see whether you agree!

Mastercard has announced that they’re further simplifying their logo, two and a half years since their last redesign, to remove the brand’s name from their visual identity altogether. I just can’t see it! I think they’ve lost sight of all reason!
