My gorgeous friend Tina the Occasional Cook had a Solid Gold-themed birthday party last night. Actually, as I’m writing this, she’s still having the party. I left just minutes ago while an enthusiastic karaoke rendition of Bon Jovi’s “Livin’ on a Prayer” was still in progress. You know that song: The perfect outfit for a [...]

This year, for the family dinner, I wanted to wear the L’Wren Scott sequined pants that I last wore in July 2009, just because they were past due [...]

I’m getting around at other blogs/websites. Turn up the volume on the Beach Boys while you read my interviews at … Poetic & Chic, where I use the word “stark” two times too many and tell you what trend I like the least. The Agenda, where I sum up my style in three words and [...]
