I know this was a terrible experience for the victim of a rabid-fox attack, but I can’t help laughing a little at the idea of a jogger running a mile with a fox clamped onto her arm. Speaking of foxes, here’s the latest addition to my men’s collection. I call this fox-and-grapes combo “Aesop’s Shirt…

Someone Fell Down on the Job
Who forgot to tell me that my hero, Katt Williams, was playing Carnegie Hall last night? Hmmm? Also, who forgot to tell Katt not to drive around NYC with a bunch of guns? Well, this is a good reason to repost my favorite Katt Williams clip. In other news, I totes agree with this! UPDATED…
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…
Yma Sumac Dies
The fabulous Peruvian singer Yma Sumac has died at 86. Check out some of her old looks. Glamorous, no? If you don’t know who she is, read her New York Times obituary, which has some highlarious details, including: “She soon played Carnegie Hall, flanked onstage by two miniature erupting volcanoes.” Now my ambition is to…
Vote and Get It Over With Already!
It’s Election Day and if I could, I would vote for “never hearing the names McCain, Obama or Palin” again. I’m sick of this shizz. (I never seem to hear about Biden so he’s not on the list.) Also, WTF is with this t-shirt? Embed from Getty Images What is that supposed to mean? It’s…
Who Ya Gonna Call?
This video reminds me of the Ghostbusters line: “Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together… mass hysteria!” Except this time there’s a side of Chicken McNuggets. Thanks for Cute Overload for this one. And thanks to the New York Times for some not-cute-at-all moments. They should have renamed this Sunday’s Styles section the “Boys Who…
Vintage Butt Bow, Plus Jackets
This vintage butt-bow dress is beautiful, isn’t it? ’60s gown$325 at Maire McLeod Speaking of bows, the New York Observer jumped on my bow bandwagon with this story. And speaking of bandwagons, you bloggers were months ahead of the designers and fashion media with your interest in band/military-style jackets. Bravo! Balmain is copying YOU! Here…
Where Are You Now, Gold Bugs?
Continuing my thoughts from a week ago…. Gold is down below $800 an ounce (yay!) and headed for a big weekly loss. Naturally, I haven’t heard from any would-be gold investors today, because THIS would be the time to buy gold. I only hear from them when gold is at a high. Speaking of investing,…
Madonna and Guy Ritchie to Divorce?
Meh. Never thought much of him to begin with. My picture of Madonna in concert I’m more intrigued by the fact that the upscale Times of London is attributing the story to booby tabloid The Sun! Rupert Murdoch happens to own both. Do you think he got wind of some hot gossip? UPDATED TO ADD:…
Girl, We Couldn’t Get Much Higher
The Wall Street Journal has an article on super-high heels, such as these Versaces: Personally, I’m loving these Michael Kors shoes. They look like a good substitute for the Lanvins that got away. UPDATED TO ADD: Loving this Marc by Marc Jacobs boot. It’s available at Barneys.
