Last night, my husband told a cab driver to stop “in the middle of the next blog, um, block!” We’ve got blogs on the brain, especially me, because I’m knee-deep in unanswered memes. I better get moving. Wardrobe Oxygen tagged me with this one, as did Diana of So Fash’On a while ago. 1. What…

Got Milk?
Check out Boobie Wars!* I don’t think I should enter. No one can compete with my amazing bosom. It wouldn’t be fair. Wanna participate? Here are the rules. They don’t seem to be gender-specific, so let’s see if any of you boys out there have man-boobs to rival General Zod‘s. Kneel before Zod‘s cleavage! *This…
We Tag the World. We Tag the Children.
If you weren’t sentient in the ’80s, you missed some interesting fashion. You also missed the moment when wealthy musicians from the U.S. and U.K. first started tormenting innocent African people with insipid charity songs. It’s bad enough to be starving. It’s worse to be starving while some craptastic song generates large amounts of money…
It’s Cold Out Today
Brrr. Winter is here. You better wear a hat. I recommend this one. Bearded hat via Kitsune Noir More hats here (thanks to Carol at Paris Breakfasts). UPDATED TO ADD: I don’t know how I could do this post and not mention HATtastic!
Amazing Bosom
Thank you to the person who came to my blog by searching for “amazing bosom.” Finally! Someone has noticed. I’m so sick of being admired for my keen mind and dazzling personality. It’s about time people started loving me for my body. Even Gigi wants to get a closer look! UPDATED TO ADD: Woot! I…
Self-Fulfilling Prophecy
Yesterday I was exceptionally annoyed by this first-person essay in the New York Times (registration required). Every week, the Modern Love column grates like fingernails on a chalkboard. After reading it I usually beat my head against the wall for a few minutes and feel much better. In the case of “My Sorority Pledge? I…
Ossie’s Back!
I am thrilled that the Ossie Clark label is going to be revived at last! I know the guy who held the rights to the name and he was trying to get something going for long time. But he wanted something high quality, and someone who would respect the label. None of the Topshop/H&M stuff….
Music Hum: Adam Ant and Annabella Lwin
Welcome again to Music Hum, my not regularly scheduled but unexpectedly frequent series on vintage music. In this post, I will amaze and delight you by connecting Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean movies to the Sex Pistols! Remember Siouxsie? As I mentioned last week in my post on punk icon Siouxsie Sioux, the Sex Pistols…
Music Hum: Siouxsie Sioux and Punk
Welcome back to Music Hum, peeps! This is my sporadic series about vintage music. Check out the previous post here. Today’s post is dedicated to Siouxsie Sioux, the queen of punk rock. If the word”punk” brings to mind big black hair, gobs of black eyeliner, fishnets and black leather/rubber bondage gear … well, you should…
Thursday Book Club: Isabella the She-Wolf
I’m going to interrupt my series of posts on the six wives of Henry VIII, or “King Henry teh 8” as he is known to Googlers. I must write about Queen Isabella, because the necklaces I named for her have just been finished. Isabella, a daughter of Philip the Fair of France, was born in…
