Most people complain about their bosses, but compared to some of the silver screen’s most famous bosses, yours in an angel. Whether they were an intense magazine editor, a greedy Wall Street businessman, or the devil (literally), these movie bosses struck fear into our hearts, while also making us thankful that we work for semi-normal people.

We have talked about what kind of shoes you should never wear in the office and why you need to be able to actually walk in your shoes (some of us are just never going to be Carrie Bradshaw. I’m still getting over it) but are there shoes that could actually help your career? More
It may be too good to be true, but Miranda Priestly is coming back to us. According to Entertainment Weekly, author Lauren Weisberger is working on Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns, a sequel to her hit debut novel The Devil Wears Prada. Simon & Schuster will be publishing the follow-up in April 2013 — 10 years after the release of the original.

The fashion industry really does make for the best romantic comedy fodder. According to The Daily Mail, a new fashion revenge novel is working its way to the big screen. This will be an adaptation of Lee Tolloch’s acclaimed 1989 book Fabulous Nobodies and will be directed by RJ Cutler, director of The September Issue. The book has a slightly similar plot to The Devil Wears Prada (and was written many years before Laura Weisberger’s tale of the evil Miranda Priestly) in that it starts at a fashion magazine in 1989 where the protagonist, Reality Nirvana Tuttle, was fired from the helm of Harper’s Bazaar Australia just nine months after its launch for being “too creative.” More
One of the greatest scenes from the movie The Devil Wears Prada is during the opening credits. You see a few different women getting ready for work and the differences are astounding. Three women who look like models (but I think they are supposed to just work in fashion) wake up super early to give themselves a full face of makeup (eyelash curlers are involved), gorgeous hair and a stunning outfit. Then they have a half of sip of coffee and are on their way (not eating breakfast does save you time.) Meanwhile young, naive and healthy weight for her height Andy Sachs (played by Anne Hathaway) has probably gotten an extra hour or two of sleep as all she needs to do is throw on a plaid skirt, sweater and those hideous shoes that I wore everyday in 7th grade. Did she even brush her hair for that interview? Probably not as she was too busy stuffing that giant bagel in her mouth.
Eventually, as we all know, Andy does become one of those women that wakes up early to make sure she looks perfect and selects an amazing outfit because it is necessary for her to get ahead in her career. But do other women feel that sacrificing sleep to spend more time on one’s appearance for work is essential for their career? More
But do these women actually have something wrong with them or do people just not know how to handle a woman who has succeeded in finance? More
What is happening at Conde Nast? First they put an end to the hilarious Conde Nast Elevator Twitter Feed and now they can’t control bathroom etiquette? Apparently, those modern white and glass magazine editorial offices, with beautiful people walking around in them, only exist in movies like The Devil Wears Prada and 13 Going on 30. Well, actually, the offices still look like that and the people are usually very attractive but the bathroom is a whole different story at Glamour Magazine. More
I can’t believe it was only earlier this week that the Conde Nast Elevator Twitter feed (@CondeElevator) entered our lives. It made such an impact (15,065 followers after three days), I could have sworn it was a whole ten days. It received so much media attention, you would have thought Charlie Sheen had hooked up with Snooki. More
