Gladiator sandals really are the shoe of the moment. After writing about them in yesterday’s post, I spotted them in today’s New York Observer. This look is going to be wildly overdone this season, but I’m going to take advantage of its pervasiveness and stock up on styles so I have them to wear when…
What Wendy Wore: Hanging With My Vegas Gems
I’m still recovering from JCK Las Vegas, the gigantic jewelry trade show that took place over the weekend. It’s not Vegas-style partying that exhausts me. It’s seeing hundreds of thousands of jewelry styles in one place that’s exhausting! The highlight of any JCK experience is meeting up with my group of amazing social-media wimmin friends,…
Werq, Caitlyn Jenner!
Bruce Jenner has left the building, and Caitlyn Jenner is looking fierce on the cover of Vanity Fair’s July issue.

Throwback Thursday: Mary Ellen Mark and Tiny

It began as a 1983 LIFE magazine photo essay,…
See Hi-Rez at McDonald’s and Webster Hall
I’m excited to see my customer Hi-Rez getting some much-deserved attention. Rez recently teamed up with YouTube prankster Coby Persin, sauntered into a Times Square McDonald’s, and rapped a crazy-ass order to the befuddlement of the McDonald’s staff. The video was shared by Lil Wayne on Facebook and has close to five million views. Not…
My Taxi Ring is a JCK Editors’ Pick!
I love lists titled “The Best of the Best,” because it makes me think of the overeager West Point graduate in Men in Black who barks “Because we’re the best of the best of the best … SIR!” I love “Best of the Best” lists even more when I’m part of them! I had just…
Happy Memorial Day From Purrkoy the Sailor Cat
Purrkoy would like to thank the members of the armed forces who gave their lives for their country … especially the sailors. Aaaaand now the Village People are going to be stuck in my head for the rest of the day.

Read All About Me on FashPlay
Thanks to the gorgeous Ali A for interviewing me for FashPlay, the site where “fashion and gaming collide.” Not only did Ali spend a long time with me on the phone, but she made me sound coherent even though I was sick and kind of rambling when we spoke. (And I completely lost my train…
