I perked up yesterday when I read that Louis Vuitton is doing another round of Stephen Sprouse designs (click here and here). I always had a thing for the late Sprouse. He might have been one of the first designers I was ever aware of, thanks to the Sprouse dress worn by Debbie Harry in…

eBay Easy Come, Easy Go
Sorry to show you something you can’t have, but anyone who is a fan of bustles and/or ruffles really missed out on this Anna Sui denim skirt. It went for only $19.99 on eBay. Front Back Butt ruffles are the next best thing to butt bows. Something that I’d love to see on eBay for…
What Do You Think?
Do you prefer my hair straight like usual or wavy like this? UPDATED TO ADD: Darn you, first commenter Cherie of Shrimpton Couture! I figured since my gorgeous sister Terri Berry was wearing red lipstick with black and leopard last night, I’d be able to pass her off as myself. Here she is in all…

Important Stuff. Also, Dresses.
MrB is the chairman of the most amazing organization called the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ). You have to click that link and do some reading, because I can’t begin to describe what people in other countries go through to tell the truth.
