As I mentioned, we took a quick trip (arrived Friday, left Monday) to St. Tropez to celebrate the marriage of our gorgeous friends Scott and Isabelle. Here I am, blowin’ in the wind in my several-years-old Versace dress, at the beautiful chateau where Scott and Isabelle hosted us. Later, that dog woke up and ate…

Greetings From Poland
The most gorgeous sight in Warsaw was definitely my friend Monika. I was sad when she went away for a month last fall, so imagine how I felt when she moved here (where she grew up) this spring. I was forced to hunt her down in her native land. At the city wall Cheers!
London, Day 2: The Wizard of Ossie
Today was all about Ossie Clark. Ossie obsessives like gorgeous blogger Sharon Rose know that the late designer, who was never good with money, sold his financially troubled line to clothing manufacturer Al Radley in the ’70s. (A large percentage of the vintage Ossies floating around nowadays are from the Ossie Clark for Radley line.)…
Gala Is Darling
Whenever a fashion blogger quits, changes URLs or seeks therapy and psychopharmaceuticals due to negative comments on her blog, I think of this lovely, civilized post from Gala Darling.

Friends and Family Report

For the Duran Duran Fans…

Quirking Along
I’ve previously done the “six unspectacular quirks” tag, but since gorgeous bloggers Fasshonaburu and Pretty in Black have both tagged me, I’m doing it again. Please note that I will beat a bitch’s ass if anyone else tries to tag me with this. I’m supposed to put the rules here, but I’m not going to….
Have Dust Ruffle, Will Travel
Last week, our friend David Ng, the executive editor of the New York Daily News, received an award from the Asian American Federation. I wore a dress by Zang Toi to the celebratory dinner. Isn’t it a little like couch upholstery, complete with dust ruffle? But in a nice way. David told a touching story…
