FASHION

CLOTHING-RENTALS: Renting clothes could be the future of fashion — or it could just be a fad. But traditional retailers can no longer afford to wait on the sidelines to find out.

SENT Monday, 990 words, photos.

PERSONAL FINANCE

NerdWallet-Liz Weston-Dangerous Decade: The numbers show that the 50s and beyond are a precarious time for U.S. workers, with more than half of those who enter that decade with a stable, full-time job pushed out involuntarily before they’re ready to retire. Few find a new job that pays as much. There are some ways to mitigate the risk, such as keeping skills up to date and maintaining a healthy career network. On the money side, saving more (and earlier), keeping debt low, and weaning adult children from parental support can help older workers weather unexpected turbulence and recover financially. By Liz Weston of NerdWallet. SENT Monday, 710 words.

HOMES

Jigsaw Puzzles: Jigsaw puzzles are in vogue. There are puzzles left out in offices and at coffee shops, puzzle clubs and competitions online, and artistic, mind-bending puzzles that sell for thousands of dollars. By Tracee M. Herbaugh. UPCOMING Wednesday, 600 words, photos.
