Last night, I watched one of my favorite movies, Cabaret, for the first time in years. I was thrilled to realize that Liza Minnelli was wearing the blouse version of an Ossie Clark dress that I own. Liza wearing Ossie in Cabaret My Ossie dress I still love the choreography for “Mein Herr.” Mein Herr

Attention NYC-Area Duran Duran Fans!
I’ve got two tickets to see Duran Duran in Central Park on May 31. I can’t use them. You blog roll bitches should use the comments to tell me how much you like Duran Duran and why. The person who writes the comment that pleases/amuses/moves me most gets the tickets for free.* You have 24…
Kaleidoscope Eyes
Want to go psychedelic like me? For those who don’t “do” vintage, See by Chloe’s trippy dress is on sale at Neiman Marcus. $338, down from $520 Don’t wear it with those shoes, though. Speaking of vintage style, the New York Times (registration may be required) has a great story on Suze Rotolo, the cutie…
Patrick Nagel
While I was working on my ‘80s flashback post on Nena, I remembered Kingdom of Style’s post on artist Patrick Nagel. Like any ’80s teenager, I remember Nagel primarily for his Duran Duran album cover art. I used to ponder this cover while listening to my beloved John Taylor on vinyl. What I didn’t remember…
Having an ’80s Flashback
Oh, how I pity you bloggers who weren’t even born in 1983. Sure, you have nice skin and your whole life in front of you and a bunch of other crap like that, but can you remember watching German pop singer Nena‘s 99 Luftballons video on brand-spanking-new MTV whenever the network wasn’t playing that clip…

You know, Heather, Rudy Giuliani violated a lot of people’s rights to make…
Whip It. Whip It Good.
A while ago, gorgeous blogger Annie at Poetic & Chic got me thinking about Herb Alpert, which got me thinking about one of my favorite album covers of all time. The girl in the “whipped cream” (most of it was really shaving cream) was Dolores Erickson. You can read about her here and here.
Asher Asher We All Fall Down!
Last night I dreamed that I was working with Paul McCartney on his new album, but he was so unappreciative of my efforts that he snubbed me in an elevator full of people. Then, suddenly, I was writing about the incident in a term paper that employed an incorrect footnote style. Next thing I knew,…
Lunatic of the Day
Heather Mills, who always brings the crazy, admitted to pouring water over the head of Paul McCartney’s lawyer in court. Even the judge hated her insane ass. Embed from Getty Images I don’t think McCartney should have to pay her any money at all. She should have to compensate him for being a blight upon…
