YSL Getty Wedge
I love the “dripping paint” effect on this shoe. It’s available in brown at Barneys for $690. The black pair is listed on Bluefly for $469, but don’t get too excited: there were no sizes listed in the dropdown menu when I looked.
My Style? Contrarian.
A few fashion bloggers and quite a lot of commenters have taken exception to this post by the street-style photographer known as The Sartorialist. What happened was that the young lady in the photo said she was a fan of his site, but he didn’t find her style blogworthy. Photo by The Sartorialist Then he…
I, Max.
My gorgeous sister Terri Berry and her handsome husband Tim Berry are the proud parents of a rescued Pekingese named Max. When they first got him, I congratulated her on his unique name. Then I suggested she liven it up by giving him a middle initial and last name too. “Max E. Pad” has a…

Hanging Out With Christian Francis Roth
Thanks to this blog, I got to meet my favorite ’90s designer, Christian Francis Roth. We had a lovely dinner at Landmarc in Tribeca. Isn’t he cute?(I’m wearing an Ossie Clark top.)
Black, White and Floral All Over
I like the Balenciaga “Floral City Classic,” now available at Barneys for $1595. You can’t get it online; it’s only available at the store. How old-fashioned! I have one Balenciaga bag in bubblegum pink. Here’s Henry wearing it. Doesn’t look too happy about this, does he? Getting back to black and white, I also like…
