I’m so excited about seeing my Cleopatra earrings in the Sex and the City 2 trailer that I can barely think of anything else. The extended trailer is on YouTube and you can see the earrings on Samantha (Kim Cattrall) at 1:35 and 1:37. She’s wearing her hair down and wavy, which looks great with…

What Wendy Wore: Hogan’s Heroes
There are bloggers who are passionate about wardrobe remixing — in other words, styling the same clothes different ways to get many looks. Then there’s me. I wore this ensemble twice last weekend, just changing the black t-shirt. Now that I think of it, I wore the same jacket-shoe-bag-necklace combo with the black version of…
Bolo Ties and More Double Denim
When I wrote my first post about double denim last month, I was going to jokingly suggest a bolo tie as the perfect accessory for the look. But by the time I got to that part of the post, I was seriously into the idea. Then gorgeous blogger The Shoe Girl emailed me a link…
Easter Egg Eyebrows
Forget about the traditional Easter bonnet. Today is the day to try out the Peeptastic pastel eyebrows seen on the Balenciaga runway last month. CLICK FOR BABY-BLUE EYEBROWS. When I saw the Balenciaga pictures, I immediately thought of my gorgeous friend Kara Baby and her gorgeous sister Stephanie Baby. No, their last name isn’t really…
Daring Damsels in Double Denim
After I wrote about the double-denim look and predicted it would become a genuine fashion trend, a few gorgeous outliers volunteered to try the style or a variation thereof while others offered evidence that they were leaders of the pack. (Please click the bloggers’ photos to see their full posts and additional pictures.) Mai of…
Single White Female X 2
The title of the 1992 thriller Single White Female always bothered me due to its lack of realism. In the movie, an attractive New York chick played by Bridget Fonda needs a roommate, so she places this ad. A less attractive chick played by Jennifer Jason Leigh moves in and starts copying Bridget’s entire life,…
Listening to Me
See me (but don’t feel me) talking about the ethics panel I moderated for the Independent Fashion Bloggers Evolving Influence conference in February. You also get to see my dollar dress in action. I’ve had a Who song stuck in my head for two days because of this post’s title. I bumped into Roger Daltrey…
Head-to-Toe Denim for Real Life
When I wrote about the head-to-toe denim look last week, I meant it when I said, “Never say never.” I figured most people would pass on the often-unflattering Texas Tuxedo look of jeans and a denim shirt, but that something more wearable would come along. It came along fast! Check out the sophisticated denim looks…
Wangsta Shoe, Purchased in Phoenix
My old K. Jacques wedges were so stretched out that they were falling off my feet, so I got these to replace them. I discovered that my summer shoes were in a bad way when I sneaked off to Phoenix for a few days this week. While I was there, I saw gorgeous blogger Practical…
Sunglasses and Seafood
Check out my new shades. This is my third pair of round sunglasses. I still have these and these. Gorgeous blogger Jennine gave the latest ones to me. She bought them in Germany, so “Danke schön,” Jennine! Jennine’s husband is German so she’s picked up some of the language from him. That’s what led to…
