I hear there’s some big sporting event today that involves jewelry, guys in tight pants … and  Madonna. Ha! I’ve always thought that football had homoerotic undertones. Clearly, everyone’s about to come out of the closet en masse, as I first anticipated in October. I’m going to celebrate this happy occasion by offering a serious [...]

When I was writing my post about Madonna’s ’80s lace-up booties, I had to do a lot of digging because every scrap of Madonna shoe information seemed to be about her pink Fluevogs in Truth or Dare. Despite all those references, I couldn’t find a photo. Then came Lady Miss Kier to the rescue! The [...]

I still love some of the fashions I wore in the early ’80s: Day-Glo Stephen Sprouse Clogs Skinny jeans Pistol belts Gladiator sandals Anything from Trash & Vaudeville or Fiorucci Lace-up boots Motorcycle jackets But I have no desire for jazz shoes. I’m also over buffalo-plaid shirts, despite my 1983-1984 enthusiasm for one blue and [...]

I’ve got vintage music style on my mind this week: first, Janis Joplin, then Debbie Harry. Now, the lace-up booties and mid-calf granny boots I’m seeing are reminding me of Madonna’s 1985 footwear. Barneys has a cut-out style by L’Wren Scott that’s a higher-heeled, gray version of the black Peter Fox booties I had in [...]

I’ve got the 1984 song “Big in Japan” by Alphaville stuck in my head. Before it was a song, “big in Japan” was a mocking description of rock bands that weren’t successful at home in the U.S. or U.K., but were popular in Japan. The Japanese fans were considered a poor consolation prize. Personally, I’d [...]

Forget about the traditional Easter bonnet. Today is the day to try out the Peeptastic pastel eyebrows seen on the Balenciaga runway last month. When I saw the Balenciaga pictures, I immediately thought of my gorgeous friend Kara Baby and her gorgeous sister Stephanie Baby.  No, their last name isn’t really “Baby.” I just call [...]

Madonna was wearing some awesome arm bands during her concerts this week. That reminded me I’d been meaning to share this real latex (not just latex-looking) arm band from Betty La Bamba with you. Keep an eye on Betty’s Etsy shop for other genuine latex items.

Here are two pictures I took of Madonna in concert at Madison Square Garden Tuesday night. Every time I see her perform, I think, “I really must work out more.” Anyone who wondered why I failed to wear rubber bangles to the show can read my sad reason here.
