Shop and read...with Ralph Lauren's new virtual storybook

On August 18th, Ralph Lauren launched its first interactive, online storybook on RalphLauren.com and Bloomingdales.com for readers ages 2 to 8. "The RL Gang," narrated by Harry Connick Jr., tells the story of eight super stylish kids who go on an adventure on their first day back to school. This new shopping experience, via a shoppable storybook, goes beyond allowing users to shop the video. Shoppers can also go into the closet of any character and shop their closet. Each character has a different style, offering pieces from the fall collection. An $18.95 hard copy of the book is also available on-demand at Tikatok.com.
