Catwalkqueen found this “customize our t-shirt” contest run by Fawcett, a U.K. group campaigning for gender equality. I usually confine slogan t-shirts to the gym, but if someone made me a sex-ay tank out of one of these, I’d wear it all around town! For those who don’t know, Merriam-Webster defines feminism as “the theory…

Great Minds Think Alike?
While I’m a believer in the fact that often great minds think alike and we all come up with similar ideas while working independently, I’ve just been looking at another jeweler’s pieces that are so reminiscent of my Mia Scent Locket that I’m feeling a little paranoid. Especially since his/hers are “hot off the press”…
Big, Bold Jewelry
Well, I can only applaud this trend! I love big, bold pieces. But I confess that I, like many people, originally shied away from bold pieces, feeling like I couldn’t carry them off, that it would be “too much,” etc. However, once I wore one big piece, I liked the reaction so much that that’s…
Great Minds Think Alike…About Betty Davis
A friend recently turned me on to the awesomely funkadelic and fashion-forward Betty Davis. I was going to blog about her but what do you know…Afrobella beat me to it. Download recommendation: “He Was a Big Freak.” Interestingly, Afrobella’s post quotes from a Betty interview in which Betty mentions Jim Hendrix supergroupie Devon Wilson, who…
Who Wore It Best? Don’t Answer!
I don’t like those “Who Wore It Best” features about celebrities. I feel sorry for the celebrity who gets only 3% of the vote. I’ve always said to myself, “Self, thank God you’re not famous so you don’t have to deal with that.” However, I have something too funny not to share so I’m going…
Never Say Never
Yesterday I saw a gorgeous woman sporting a closely shaven head, slim-fitting black top, flowing black pants and bright yellow Crocs. She looked fantastic! Like a very relaxed Grace Jones. Sadly, I didn’t have my camera on me so you’ll have to take my word for it. But really, she owned it.

Elton John’s Glasses
As In Yr Fshn correctly points out, one shouldn’t mention crazy glasses without giving props to Elton John. Check out Elton!
Glam Rock Shoes on Sale
The glam rock mood has really struck me after browsing through pictures of Freddie Mercury. In the ’60s and ’70s, Terry de Havilland’s shoes were worn by the likes of Bianca Jagger, Anita Pallenberg and David and Angie Bowie. More recently, Sienna Miller has rocked his outrageous wedges and Amy Winehouse sported a pair of…
Stars on Your Eyes
Behind Big Glasses posted about red sunglasses and included a star-shaped pair in the photos. That reminded me of a pair of shades Freddie Mercury of Queen wore in the “We Will Rock You” video way back in 1977. I couldn’t find a photo of Freddie wearing the glasses but I was able to find…
