I am fascinated with the ultra-defined appearance of Angelina Jolie’s jawline in this poster for The Tourist, her new movie with Johnny Depp. That jawline is so sharp that it makes me think of a hatchet or a throwing knife. Angelina could cut a bitch with her own face! I like it. It’s good to [...]

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 [...]

As I said in my last post, gorgeous blogger Jennine and I went to see the social-media-inspired movie Catfish. There are two notable things about Catfish. First, the trailer that makes the movie look like a scary pseudo-documentary à la The Blair Witch Project is misleading. Second, Yaniv “Nev” Schulman, the handsome star of the [...]

I recently caught 1985′s Desperately Seeking Susan on television and was impressed by how well it held up. Seeing the movie again made me intensely nostalgic for the era’s dirtier, more creative, less fast-fashion downtown New York, which the Wall Street Journal calls “the film’s uncredited co-star, alongside Rosanna Arquette and Madonna.” I was obsessed [...]

Before I started dating the gorgeous MrB in 1998 (thanks to the intervention of my late dog, Mr. Chubbs), I’d barely worn jewelry in years. Once in a blue moon, I’d wear a sapphire ring my parents got me for my 16th birthday, and I got a chunky silver ring during a trip to Dublin [...]

Remember how I asked you to guess whether or not I got the Jean-Charles de Castelbajac sailor outfit? It was a trick question! I got a navy blue version of the white pants I was wearing in the picture and a different nautical-themed top. So, yes, I got a head-to-toe outfit, but it wasn’t the [...]

In case you’re new to this blog and haven’t read the TEN MILLION posts I’ve done on this topic … guess what?! My Cleopatra earrings are worn by Samantha (Kim Cattrall) in Sex and the City 2! I wanted to see the movie on opening night. At first, I thought MrB and I would have [...]

I’m so excited about seeing my Cleopatra earrings in the Sex and the City 2 trailer that I can barely think of anything else. The extended trailer is on YouTube and you can see the earrings on Samantha (Kim Cattrall) at 1:35 and 1:37. She’s wearing her hair down and wavy, which looks great with [...]

Oh happy day! I’ve just seen my shoulder-brushing Cleopatra earrings on Samantha (Kim Cattrall) in a trailer for Sex and the City 2. Gorgeous blogger Marian Kihogo reminds me that I mentioned on her blog that SATC2 had borrowed the Cleopatra earrings when I did a guest post for her in February. Samantha is wearing [...]

The title of the 1992 thriller Single White Female always bothered me due to its lack of realism. In the movie, an attractive New York chick played by Bridget Fonda needs a roommate, so she places this ad. A less attractive chick played by Jennifer Jason Leigh moves in and starts copying Bridget’s entire life, [...]
