Leave Prada to the Devil
My pal enc wants these Prada Boots, which Neiman Marcus will gladly provide for $1,200. In a lucky coincidence, I found my self online last night, hypnotized by crazy boots at Amazon. Once I started looking, I couldn’t stop. It’s … Continue reading
I Said No No No
Sometimes, things that are awful bring us joy; but sometimes, they’re just plain awful. Queen Marie was rightly offended by the notion of fake high-heels made for babies. For $35, you can buy a pair of these shoes, put them … Continue reading
Play-Doh and Miracles

I don’t think one can underestimate the importance of hair. As I often say aloud while watching TV, “Hair is everything.” When accused of having an unhealthy preoccupation with hair, I’ve been able to fire off myths and folk tales … Continue reading
“Whenever One Door Closes, Another One Opens”
The results are in. I have learned that I am too old and cranky to model for a camera, not to mention changing outfits. Notice how these overalls make me look like I’m wearing jodhpurs. I look like a hippo. … Continue reading
Vivienne Still Rules!
God bless a woman who doesn’t want Botox and speaks her mind. This is how to be 67, if you’re as cool as Vivienne Westwood. Of course, none of us are, but here’s what she says about Sex And The … Continue reading
