The Weeks in Review
In case you missed it, here’s what’s been on the blog recently. Thursday, May 31: This was the first day of the Couture jewelry trade show (the reason my blogging has been far less prolific than usual). I got a mention in WWD as one of the designers new to Couture. Friday, June 1: One…
Coachella 2018, Day 2: Lion Babe, Cardi B, Eminem
I could have squeezed my full Coachella 2018 story into yesterday’s post, but I wanted to give some extra love to Lion Babe, which was the first act I saw on Sunday.

Yesterday, Bob Dylan became the first musician to be awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. That makes him one of the 11 men — all aged 65 and up — to be honored in the six Nobel categories this year. No women won a Nobel Prize in 2016, for the first time since 2012. (Nobel…

Two years ago, when I saw my celebrity crush Neil Young perform solo at Carnegie Hall, I thought, “This is the way to see Neil. Without the distraction of a band.” On Saturday, when I saw Neil Young perform on the second day of “Oldchella” — aka the Desert Trip music festival, in Indio, Calif….
Oldchella Day 1 and Thoughts on the Trump Tapes
I’m enjoying a weekend at “Oldchella,” aka the Desert Trip music festival, in California. Last night, I saw the Rolling Stones.
