Marc Jacobs started his show over two hours late. At least this time there was ventilation, so I didn’t sweat all over my Ossie Clark dress. Due to camera problems, I missed a good shot of Posh Beckham aka Victoria Spice. Fortunately, fashion reporter Cheryl Tan was willing to do her best Posh imitation. Cheryl,…

Save Britney Spears!
Britney swimming with my Borgia ring. Britney Spears, my favorite jewelry thief, had a rough time at the VMAs last night. But America loves a comeback, and I sincerely hope she will get her act together. I know people are saying she’s over but if Richard Nixon can make a comeback, anyone can. Honestly, I…
Do You Ever Feel Like Something Is Missing?
Yet you can’t quite figure out what it is? “I can’t put my finger on it, but something is amiss, ” thought Gwendolyn. “Luckily, a LBD is always appropriate!” Gorgeous future client (ahem!) Jane, noticing my latex fetish, directed me to Syren Latex. Syren has high-end leggings as well as air-conditioned dresses. They also have…
All That Glitters Is Making Me Nervous
The price per ounce of gold jumped in the past few days. It’s now at $700 an ounce. If it breaks through last year’s high, I’m going to have to adjust all my prices. For more information on what is driving gold prices, click here. To monitor gold prices, click here. It’s hard to believe…
More Latex Leggings (and Coats)

New at Topshop
Of the Kate Moss pieces available at this moment on Topshop.com, I like this tweed jacket the most. I’d have to see it personally to decide if it was worth 75 pounds. This grey cashmere sweater is also cute, but again, 65 pounds seems like a lot for what I think of as Topshop quality….
Maid in Manhattan?
I haven’t worn gloves for years. I prefer to stuff my hands in my pockets and complain about the cold weather. But when I found these woolly fingerless gloves in Bergen, Norway, this summer, I was in love. Then, two days ago, I was on Madison Avenue and walked by Sermoneta Gloves. The brightly colored…
Luscious Leather
Isn’t this leather mini-trench by S.W.O.R.D. beautiful? I love it but I definitely can’t get it. I have too many coats and jackets as it is. Here is the back view (in a different color). It’s available at blaec.com. I’ve never bought anything from the site but I like to browse its interesting collection (even…
