I have two vintage Stephen Sprouse skirts, as I mentioned in Wednesday’s rap-tastic YouTube video. I shared pictures of my frequently worn pink Sprouse skirt yesterday. Here’s my “Rock Sticker” skirt, as I styled it recently. What Wendy Wore Top: Top: L’Agence (2013) Skirt: Vintage Stephen Sprouse (purchased from Decades, years ago) Shoes: Manolo Blahnik…

Caught on Camera: Halle, Taylor, and Me
Taylor Swift announced on Wednesday that her sixth studio album, coming out November 10, will be called Reputation. That got me thinking that if I were a pop star dropping a new album, the most appropriate name for it would be Procrastination. I could schedule my album for the 10th of Never. A post shared…
Happy Caturday!

Throwback Thursday: When Havoc Struck
As I’ve said before, there are fascinating stories to be found in the obituary sections of newspapers. I’m specifying “newspapers,” rather than the “news,” because if you’re not physically turning the pages of a print edition, it’s easy to miss anyone whose death doesn’t make the homepage of a website or the top of a…
Throwback Thursday: Judy’s Redesigned Engagement Ring
For the past few years, “halo” settings for engagement rings have been popular — a halo being a ring of smaller diamonds set around a center stone. I see a LOT of them. Too many to get excited about, unless a friend (or reader) of mine is wearing one. In that case, of course, I’m…
Piercing Inspiration & Advice for Earring Lovers
Facebook reminded me today that it’s been a year since I posted this photo of the lovely Cassi Lopez adding two piercings to my right ear. The photo, in turn, reminded me that I have an earring-palooza to blog about because we’ve been piercing like crazy here. That’s what happens when you’re a jewelry designer…
Throwback Thursday: Rhythmic Gymnastics in Rio
Last month, while I was at the gym during non-primetime television hours, I caught an hour of the rhythmic gymnastic competition from the Olympics in Rio. I was like this … … totally glued to the screen, jaw dropped. Embed from Getty Images We’re all captivated by regular gymnastics — properly called artistic gymnastics —…
Fond Memories of Manolo the Shoeblogger
In the glory days of fashion blogging (2005 – 2009, in my opinion), I was addicted to one of the first of the genre: Manolo the Shoeblogger. Manolo the Shoeblogger — who was NOT Manolo Blahnik the shoe designer — did have great taste in shoes, but it was his whimsical writing style (he called…
The Great Simones and Gabby Douglas
Last year, the name “Simone” was number 820 on the list of popular names for baby girls in the U.S. I expect that in 2016 and 2017, that name will be several hundred places higher, thanks to the awe-inspiring Olympian Simones. Gymnast Simone Biles won her fourth gold medal at the Rio Olympics today. Only…
