Gorgeous blogger ENC has created some new dress-based art for me. In case you don’t know the back story, it is as follows: I found an Alexander McQueen dress on eBay that looked like modern art; then Jill put me and the dress into some art; and then Danielle made another contribution. And here are…
Happy Very Belated Birthday to Me
When I turned 40 last December, my gorgeous mother, BarbaraB, told me she wanted to take me shopping for a special birthday present. I couldn’t take the pressure of picking out my own gift for such a momentous occasion. I felt it had to be something amazing that I would never buy for myself. Tricky!…
Marcel Ostertag
Thanks to kink-tastic blogger Asudem Latex of Doll’s Realm for pointing out the work of Munich-based designer Marcel Ostertag. Asudem had written about this designer before but this time the photos really grabbed me: shiny fabric, ruffles and leopard print … and shiny leopard print! What more could I ask for? Well, I suppose I…
Vintage YSL on eBay
Love this suit with a brocade jacket and harem pants!
Z Is for Zebra. B Is for Buy Earrings.
I don’t usually make such small pieces, so if you like the little things, seize the day! These zebra-patterned stud earrings are perfect if you want just a hint of animal print. They’re made of rock crystal, hand-painted in Germany. The setting is sterling silver. I have two pairs for sale for $225 each. I…
Curious
I’m wondering if the Lancome red lipstick/black gloss combo I mentioned and pre-ordered in August will ever arrive — since it is supposedly in Bloomies now — or if it will be a fashion phantom like the Christian Louboutin booties that surprised me by appearing after six months. I’m also wondering why the lipstick’s name…
I Spy With My Little Eye…
Fringe sunglasses? Cool! Beyonce wore these while shooting a video. Photo from JustJared UPDATED TO ADD: I love Dlisted’s comment: “All the bitch needs is Kanye’s horizontal blinds sunglasses and she’d have a fucking complete window treatment.” UPDATED AGAIN TO ADD: Susie Bubble knows all! She thinks the sunglasses are by Bless and judging from…
Three Textures, New Ring
You can’t see much in this picture [glaring at photographer], so you’ll just have to believe me when I tell you that I’m wearing three textures of black in this photograph from Friday night. If you click on the photo, you can enlarge it a tad. Dolce & Gabbana jacket (previously seen here)Velvet Zang Toi…
No Beef Chimichanga for Paul McCartney
I still haven’t recovered from the Times of London’s chimichanga-flashing interview of date-rape-apologist Helen Mirren, but I did enjoy this fully-clothed interview the paper conducted with my almost-husband, Paul McCartney. I do think Paul (and everyone else) should stop worrying about fools who still gripe about who broke up the Beatles. Many of us have…
Giggity Giggity GigaPan
Worried you’re not wasting enough time online? I’ve got the solution. GigaPan is a website where people share extremely hi-res (gigapixel!) panoramic photos. You can see people’s photos from all over the world. It’s the gigapixel aspect that makes this more exciting than Flickr and other photo-sharing sites. For example, click here to see GeorgeB’s…
