If you look VERY closely, you can sorta see my Victoria Buckle Ring on Miley Cyrus’s index finger. Woot!
I’ve Seen a Ghost (Tailor)
I’ve mentioned Jean, the proprietress of Ghost Tailor, quite a few times on this blog. I found Jean when I was desperately looking for someone to alter some sweaters for me. No one wants to alter sweaters, which baffles me. It’s not like the sweaters grow on the sheep in ready-to-wear condition. (Designer to sheep:…
Question of the Day
What’s the appropriate reaction when someone’s personal story is weirdly similar to a scene from a movie? Do I assume it’s a genuine case of life imitating art? Or do I give in to my urge for a small popcorn and a medium Diet Coke? It wasn’t this scene; I just like this picture.
Designer and Muse?

Acne Outlet
I’m loving that Acne, my favorite jeans brand, now has an online outlet. I finally broke down and got the loose-fitting Generic Girl jeans in peach. I first admired those last July. I wound up getting the style in blue, but always regretted missing the peach. No more regrets!

I saw this disturbing wall art when I was in Miami recently. It reminded me of a Charles Addams cartoon that used to bug me.
Analyze This
I dreamed that Heather Mills was doing a clothing line for Topshop … and that I was the publicist for it. Heather Mills
Pert Plus Plus Plus Plus Plus Plus Plus Plus
I’ve mentioned Prada nearly 30 times on this blog, but Miuccia hasn’t sent a thank-you note, let alone a fabulous bag. I’ve mentioned “2 in 1 Shampoo Plus Conditioner” Pert Plus one time and the publicist immediately sent me eight bottles of the stuff. I’m sure there’s a lesson to be learned from this. Let…
Ossie Clark Sweaters
I’m on an Ossie Clark blogging kick. Here’s a famous 1968 photo of Ossie wearing his own shirt and patchwork belt with a sweater made by his mother. Photo source: Another Nickel in the Machine Here’s a not-at-all-famous photo of me wearing my only Ossie Clark sweater. I’ve never managed to find a lot of…
