One of my all-time favorite designs is my onyx and tsavorite skull ring … … with diamonds hidden inside. I’ve wanted to do a variation on this design for years — one that would be different enough for the onyx skull to keep its “one of a kind” status, but special in its own right….
Did You Miss Cyber Monday?
Thanks to everyone who purchased jewelry from my Cyber Monday sale yesterday! Apologies to those people who wanted a chicken necklace and didn’t get one. There was such a rush on them that my website couldn’t keep up, so the site told some people that they had one when they really didn’t. I’m sorry that…

The original street-style photographer, Bill Cunningham of the New York Times, also shoots big social events.

You can see the pictures in tomorrow’s New York Times Sunday Styles section … and here….
Thankful for Press Freedom
The Committee to Protect Journalism has posted the biographical videos (produced by Univision) and acceptance speeches for three of Tuesday’s International Press Freedom Awards honorees. Here are the links for television reporter Janet Hinostroza of Ecuador; humorist Bassem Youssef of Egypt; and newspaper reporter Nedim Şener of Turkey. As I mentioned yesterday, Nguyen Van Hai,…
What We Wore: CPJ International Press Freedom Awards
Every year, the Committee to Protect Journalists presents its International Press Freedom Awards on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving. The timing is apt, because the event always reminds me how much freedom of expression we do have in the United States — despite efforts to chip away at it — and how thankful we should be…
Fashion Repeats Itself: Polka Dots and Flowers
Katy Perry wore a polka-dot-and-floral strapless gown on the red carpet at the American Music Awards. I got all excited, hoping she was wearing a 1980s Patrick Kelly … perhaps a ballgown version of the vintage dress currently available at Shrimpton Couture. Nope! Katy’s gown is actually from Oscar de la Renta’s Spring 2014 collection….
Poor Kelly Clarkson, Still Talking About Weight
In 2011 and 2012, I wrote about the attention paid to singer Kelly Clarkson’s weight. Even though some of that chatter was and is ostensibly positive — “She’s one of us! She’s a regular gal!” — I still think it sucks that she has to talk about weight at all. Last week, Clarkson announced that…
