I walked by H&M on 5th Avenue yesterday and saw workers literally rolling out the red carpet for the launch of the Jimmy Choo collection today. If — no, WHEN! — I do the WendyB line for H&M, I promise that all you blog roll bitches are going to prance down the red carpet and…

Post Rerun: A Defense of Fashion
Gorgeous blogger Tavi of Style Rookie recently posted a link to Washington Post fashion editor Robin Givhan’s column about the uproar du jour over thin models. The column, thankfully, didn’t use the expression “real women” (as in “real women have curves” and, presumably, non-curvy women must be imaginary) but the topic did remind me that…
You CANNOT Be Serious!
I woke up on the wrong side of the bed today and neither lolcats nor the misery of others could lift my spirits.A Then I started watching YouTube clips of John McEnroe‘s tennis court tantrums. This is a great way of safely channeling psychotic rage. Please play on.
Lemon Tree, Very Pretty
I’ve been having fun in L.A. but I’ve been doing a lot of work too. I managed to tear myself away from the laptop yesterday to sit by the pool for three hours. While poolside, I pondered a lemon tree that, unlike more productive neighboring lemon trees, had put all its energy into creating a…
Confession: I Worked for “Birther” Lover Lou Dobbs
Lately, immigrant-hating CNN maniac Lou Dobbs is getting a lot of publicity for giving airtime to “birthers” — people who are convinced by the aliens who control their minds via chips installed during anal probes that Barack Obama was born in Kenya, instead of Hawaii. Some of you know that before I was a jewelry…

Fold clean clothes Plan your day tomorrow (do not include any murder plots) Return a call/e-mail to a friend Listen to every word MrB says about how his day went after you ask him…
Sunday Styles Strikes Again
You’d think that after this recent post, I would have stopped reading the non-fashion articles in the Sunday Styles section of the New York Times. I know I should avoid exposure to quotes from incredibly annoying people, but I still couldn’t resist last Sunday’s section. The latest irksome article, about abandoned blogs, was called Blogs…
This Post Is Not for the Sensitive
Last week, I went to see “Whole in the Wall,” an exhibit of graffiti art at the Helenbeck Gallery, accompanied by my designing friend, Christian Francis Roth, and my gorgeous, non-designer friend, Maggie Kneip. I wrote more about the show on my brand-new Francis blog today. [UPDATED TO ADD: That blog is now defunct.] As…
What Really Grinds My Gears
I’ve mentioned my love for the animated series Family Guy before. On one episode, Peter Griffin gets his own segment on the local news called “What Really Grinds My Gears.” Take a look. The incest/period portion of that clip isn’t relevant to my post today. I don’t even have a brother, for God’s sake! You…
Everyone Complains About the Weather
It started out cloudy and cool today, but now I see the sun peeking out. Confusing. So, before I go out this evening, I will check The Fucking Weather for the latest forecast. My gorgeous blogging friend Tina pointed out this bit of highlariousness to me. When I checked a few minutes ago, the site…
