For the folks who find this blog while searching for skinny gold jeans: Good news! Saks has a pair by Converse by John Varvatos for $225. I don’t see them on Saks.com yet, but I am sure you can call the store and tell them you want the jeans advertised on page A3 of the…

Money, Money, Money
Yogi Berra once noted that cash is almost as good as money. I’m not in the market for a new wallet to keep my cash in, but if I were, I’d be interested in these two sold at MOMA, both designed by Hester van Eeghen. The Sunrise wallet (above) is $145 ($130.50 for MOMA members)…
(G)Love Is All Around
Everyone is loving gloves and shiny clothes for the fall, so I give you … shiny gloves! These patent gloves cost $175 at Neiman Marcus and come in several colors. I’m rather partial to the green and plum, but black patent is always a classic.
Something’s Fishy
I like fish but I’m a little terrified by these bags…or their handles, to be precise. Vivre suggests that I make this my “signature bag.” I’m afraid I’m going to have to pass on that. However, I still hope I will find the crazy Louboutin fish shoes marked way down to about $100 or so….
The San Francisco Treat
Continuing my tour of fashion bloggers around the world (“Coming Soon To Your City!”), I hit San Francisco last weekend to meet Jennine of The Coveted. Photos don’t do her justice. She was even more beautiful in person than on the blog, though I didn’t recognize her for a second because of the brand-new bangs….
More Latex Lovers
While I’m mentioning other blogs, I wanted to comment on the continued growth of the latex look. I can’t wait to see Agathe wear her latex dress on Style Bytes. Jennine at The Coveted went for the American Apparel leggings. This young lady looked beautiful on The Sartorialist. I’m amused that I kept a pair…
Two Posts I Wish I Wrote
I am just back from San Francisco and need some time to work on my S.F. post, plus tomorrow’s book club post. So for now, let me refer you to these two great and incredibly well-researched posts. The first is Dorkas’s post on l’Inconnue de la Seine. The second is The Stiletto Effect’s post on…
Media Alert: The Coveted in the Chronicle
Jennine of The Coveted is quoted in the San Francisco Chronicle! Hmmm. I have to say I wish the reporter’s tone was a little nicer. Here’s the passage: “‘I will not be attending S.F. Fashion Week,’ begins a rant on www.thecoveted.blogspot.com, which was later picked up as a link on several other fashion blogs. ‘I…
Kawaii!!!!
Fashionably Cute is a webzine dedicated to all things kawaii. I discovered it when FC linked to MY link to b.lush, who borrowed it from her boyfriend. (Cute food is so viral!). The ice cream sandwich piggy is killing me!
Buy My Dress at Frock NYC
My favorite vintage store, Frock NYC, has relaunched its website! Check out the beautiful selections, including Ossie Clark, Thea Porter, Ungaro and Moschino. Not to mention my very own Versace Couture dress (see above), worn to the Oscars in 2003! And if you’re in NYC, you must stop by the store at 148 Orchard Street…
