I found an amusing boutique while visiting my gorgeous sister, Terri Berry, and the rest of the Berry family in Tampa, Fla. Milagros for Body & Soul sells Saint Agnes Soap, which the website homepage describes as “the finest handmade glycerin soaps from the world’s cleanest nun made available to saints & sinners everywhere from…
Dogs
Walk a Mile in My Shoes
Gorgeous blogger Jennine from The Coveted is in town for Fashion Week, so she stopped by my apartment to meet the dogs and rummage through my closet. She got very attached to my Louis Vuitton gold platforms, as you can see. Jennine is wearing my shoes better than I do.The tennis ball behind her belongs…
Asked and Answered Again
Don’t forget to keep voting for me for Best Fashion Blogger of 2008! I won’t be able to miraculously generate thousands of votes in a couple of hours (hmmm) but I’d like to still have a strong showing. In my second campaign speech, I offered to answer any questions you had. I answered the first…
New Year’s Outfits
For my traditional New Year’s Eve/birthday combination celebration last night, I wore a Clovis Ruffin dress from Shrimpton Couture, my faux-ny tail and earrings of my own design. Gigi the dog wore her own fur coat, accessorized with a giant tongue and a bitchy attitude. UPDATED TO ADD: I’m wearing also the Lagerfeld shoes I…
Sprouse Is Back, Back Again
I perked up yesterday when I read that Louis Vuitton is doing another round of Stephen Sprouse designs (click here and here). I always had a thing for the late Sprouse. He might have been one of the first designers I was ever aware of, thanks to the Sprouse dress worn by Debbie Harry in…
Happy Very Belated Birthday to Me
When I turned 40 last December, my gorgeous mother, BarbaraB, told me she wanted to take me shopping for a special birthday present. I couldn’t take the pressure of picking out my own gift for such a momentous occasion. I felt it had to be something amazing that I would never buy for myself. Tricky!…
Election Night Fashion Moments
Last night, we went to an awesome election party hosted by Oscar-winning movie producer (and Halston owner!) Harvey Weinstein. Besides Obama’s victory, a highlight was the moment I took this picture of MrB and our friends Norm and Jane. Look who was lurking in the background. This photo is dedicated to fashion icon Daphne Guinness’s…

Henry Update
Thanks to all you peeps who have inquired about Henry. I appreciate your concern! The surgery went well. The surgeon removed the abnormal tissue from Henry’s paw and created some nice new toes for him. It was like doggie plastic surgery! Of course, it wasn’t just cosmetic. We’re hoping the removal of the excess tissue…
Wish Him Luck!
Henry the dog is having an operation on his deformed paw today. The doctors are hoping to remove the excess skin that makes his foot look webbed, create proper toes and tighten up his tendons to compensate for missing ligaments. Here’s how his deformed foot looks now. Here’s the grumpy face Henry made while I…
