I do have a passion for highlarious fashion, so I have to thank singer Rita Ora and Fashion Bomb Daily for introducing me to the art/fashion/performance art of The Rodnik Band via Rita’s cheese-slice dress. The Rodnik Band is designed by Philip Colbert, who was interviewed by the site Not Just a Label. The introduction to…

A Shoe Worthy of April Fools’ Day; You’ll Be Trippin’!
You know when you’re shopping for clothes or shoes and you see something awesome but then you think, “If I got that, I’d need a whole new wardrobe to go with it”? Well, because I’m a helpful person, I have a list of accessories that you’ll require if you’re considering buying these Jeffrey Campbell shoes…
A Mustache’s Passing
I’ve posted before about the reasons I still read newspapers on actual paper. For instance, in 2010, I wrote: “I enthusiastically use teh Interwebs to stay informed, but I’m highly aware of how easy it is to select only what you want to read. That’s why I read on paper too. The mere act of…
Can’t Make Up Your Mind?
Feeling indecisive today? Can’t decide what shoes to wear, what book to read or what to do with the rest of your life? Describe your quandary in the comments, and I will make the decision for you. I’m like Mattel’s Magic 8 Ball without all the shaking. (Follow my advice at your own risk!)
Stylish Hillary Clinton, Moving at the Speed of Light
Forget about the wrinkly elbows. Realizing I had missed last week’s hot new Internet meme/website made me feel old and out of touch. The fact that I only learned of it today by reading the quaint paper version of the New York Times pegs me as ancient. (Damn! When have I ever needed to learn…
When Fashion Goes Right
When fashion works, you feel transformed: The LOLcat image is from I Can Has Cheezburger. Since the Wall Street Journal wrote about the original LOLcat site in 2007, Cheezburger has grown into what the New York Times called a “web empire.” One of my favorite Cheezburger-owned sites is This is Photobomb.

Need a Laugh? Try Stewie and Peter From Family Guy.
This Family Guy clip is guaranteed to make me laugh no matter what kind of mood I’m in. It’s from an episode in which Peter (the dad) gets in touch with his feminine side. Stewie’s reaction to being breastfed is among my favorite Family Guy moments. It’s a very “2 Girls 1 Cup” response. Family…
This Week’s Obsession: Marcel the Shell With Shoes On
These videos of Marcel the Shell With Shoes On have been out for a while. The first one was posted in 2010, and the second one was posted last month. I watched them then, so I’m not sure why I’ve watched them over and over this week. Maybe Marcel is just a good antidote to…
“That’s How You Do It, Bitch!”
Lately, when I need cheering up and J. Lo’s “Defend Your Outfit” video isn’t quite enough, I watch the super-gay version of “Bonjour” from Disney’s Beauty and the Beast. Enjoy!
Cake or Death? I’ll Have the Chicken
Last month, when I was celebrating the appearance of my Cleopatra earrings in Sex and the City 2, gorgeous blogger Stacy of taffetadarlings gave me this congratulatory cake from Two Little Red Hens. The cake was gone within 24 hours, but comedian Eddie Izzard’s “Cake or death?” routine has been stuck in my head ever…
