ENC of Observationmode is too shy to make a big deal of it herself, so I’m making a fuss for her: She’s getting married on March 20! Stop by her blog to leave your best wishes, but not your congratulations. Traditionally, you say “Congratulations” to the groom because he’s managed to find a woman who…

Oh, Happy Day
My husband and I started dating exactly 10 years ago today. I don’t know if this is from 1998, but it’s probably close enough. Also, happy birthday to GeorgeB! GeorgeB
A Flair for the Obvious
I wore this vintage Moschino dress to our Valentine’s dinner. It won’t enlarge! Don’t bother clicking. UPDATED TO ADD: During dinner, we were befriended by the people seated next to us and it turned into quite a party. Here we are with the charming Allyson and Jake from Mississippi.
Mizrahi, Oldham, Roth, Magic and Loony
Back in the ’90s, young designers Isaac Mizrahi, Todd Oldham and Christian Francis Roth were fashion stars. They were awesome. They didn’t make enough money to stay in business, but they were awesome. I last wrote about these designing men in September, when Oldham was named creative director for Old Navy. Earlier this month, Mizrahi…

Gorgeous blogger Altamira joined us for New Year’s with his lovely friend Lola. He’s posted a funny action photo of me dancing my hair off (literally!) to my favorite song, Smells Like Teen Spirit. Check it out! And, yes, Dita Von Teese and I use the same tanning salon. UPDATED TO ADD: I’ve decided that…
Happy New Year, Bitches!
My husband threw me a big New Year’s Eve/40th birthday party. My friends Phil and Angeline sent me some flowers and balloons to get me in the mood. Lots more pictures to come! UPDATED TO ADD: My dress code for the party was black tie OR mutton dressed as lamb. As you can see from…
Taking a Few Days Off
I’ve had a lousy week and I’m just not feeling this. I will be back in 2008. Gigi the dog joins me in wishing you health and happiness in the new year. P.S. The gold dress has arrived and the size small IS that short. I’m going to have to take a photo and have…
Happy Festivus
