What Wendy Wore Sweater: Dsquared (2012) Skirt: Moschino (2005/2006) Boots: Prada (2008) Purse: Yves Saint Laurent (2013) Necklace:…
Throwback Thursday: Zang Toi Sweater and Skirt
I’ve been wondering what year I got the Zang Toi sweater that I wore to an event in October. I could have asked Zang; I was just lazy about doing it. But now I’ve found a photo of the sweater and matching skirt from September 2005. Woot! It’s officially homegrown vintage! I never wore the…
Jewel of the Month: FitzRoy the Cat Y-Necklace
Early this year, I unveiled the first part of a mini-collection inspired by FitzRoy, my cat who is Instagram-famous for sitting in a big orange bowl. Cartier has its iconic panther designs, but the Exotic Shorthair cat demographic was sadly neglected by the fine-jewelry industry. I had to come to the rescue. First, I did…
You Might Literally Die If You Miss My Jewelry Sale
If you missed Jessica Bennett’s recent New York Times story on the latest developments in Internet-speak, you better read it if you ever hope to communicate with me again. Srsly, the new jargon is so second-nature for me now that I just can’t even when people don’t use it. When I get a text, email…

Get Ready for Cyber Monday
Are you running around like crazy doing your Black Friday shopping today? I don’t think I’ve ever done Black Friday. I don’t enjoy shopping in crowds. If I can shop at off hours, I do. When I worked at the Wall Street Journal — which was in the World Financial Center, across from the World…
Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving to my U.S. readers! If you’re not into watching football, you can spend game time dressing up your dog or cat as a turkey. Note: If you decide to do a cat-turkey, don’t forget to have disinfectant and Band-Aids nearby. Enjoy! CATS AND DOGS DRESSED AS TURKEYS.

Almost as Good as SkyMall
Yesterday, I said getting catalogs in the mail isn’t as fun as getting a letter. I realized how wrong I was when I got this catalog from Bits and Pieces. Who wouldn’t want these sneaker socks?! Bits and Pieces says, “These novelty sneaker socks are printed to resemble popular hi-tops that cool kids have been…
