Thanks to Red Carpet Fashion Awards, I had a fabulous day of shopping with gorgeous bloggers Sharon Rose and Times of Glory. RCFW tipped us off to a charity sale of designer castoffs by Trudie Styler (aka Mrs. Sting). Bargain-shopping diva Sharon had planned out a whole itinerary but when I sent her the info…

Shady
The giant sunglasses worn by tout le monde these past few years never looked good on me, so I became obsessed by little round ones. I’ve been getting a lot of use out of this pair. In Water Mill, N.Y., on July 4Doesn’t it look like that car is driving through my head? I got…

Au Revoir, Weasel
One of my favorite bloggers — the Francophile, weasel-loving, red lipstick-wearing La Belette Rouge — has shut down her blog, though she assures me she will still visit this corner of the blogosphere on occasion. With 20/20 hindsight, I feel that a photo from my meeting with LBR in February foretold this grim day. That’s…

Gala Is Darling
Whenever a fashion blogger quits, changes URLs or seeks therapy and psychopharmaceuticals due to negative comments on her blog, I think of this lovely, civilized post from Gala Darling.

Cupcakes Will Beat a Bitch’s Ass
I’m a big fan of Cakespy and her L’il Cuppie cupcake character. It made my day to find out that Bakerella had baked a L’il Cuppie of her own a while back. As if it that weren’t enough, she made a cute video with it. Where was I the day someone was handing out all…
I’d Like to Thank the Little People
I’d like to thank the little people — the dwarfs AND the midgets — who helped me on my way to the top. Now that I’ve won this prestigious award, I promise I won’t change a bit except for the fact that I won’t return your calls and I’m only going to hang out with…
