I seriously have eye strain from tonight’s Game of Thrones episode. How we all watched #GameofThrones tonight. For the screen is dark and full of terrors… pic.twitter.com/uNuwamszXM — LA White (@OrangeMoon_2002) April 29, 2019 But I saw enough to say, “NOOOOOOOOOOO!” when the Mormonts died.

Foot Fetish: 1980s Booties and Boot Styles
There hasn’t been a shoe that’s interested me in quite a while, but this Dior caught my eye because it reminds me of a Peter Fox style I had in the 1980s. You can just barely make out those Peter Fox shoes against my crazy striped tights in this poorly lit photo from 1986. Madonna…
Rainy-Day Fashion for Dogs and Wimmins
We’ve had heavy rain in New York today. Thunder-phobic Edward the dog was dressed for the occasion in a ThunderShirt that provided both comfort and camouflage … … until the storm unnerved him so badly that he peed on his little outfit. Meanwhile, I’m completely unprepared because I’ve never gone to a thousand-umbrella fashion show….
#NOPE of the Day: Bad Jewelry-Biz Tweets

For more about this very important designer whose piece did me a bamboozle, check out: His bio at BlackPast.org. His 2014 interview with…
Every Bacio Della Morte Begins With K
The New York Times still has some great reporters, despite itself, and Taffy Brodesser-Akner is one of them. Her New York Times Magazine story about gender discrimination and sexual abuse at jewelry-industry giant Signet Jewelers’ Sterling division — and the resulting class-action lawsuit — is a must-read. Keep in mind, plenty of facts about the…
Coachella 2019: What Wendy Wore. Again.
For a lot of people, Coachella is a high-fashion moment — a runway in the desert. Then there’s me, wearing the same thing three years in a row. I wore the same hat, shorts, boots, and denim jacket (tied around my waist in each photo) at my first Coachella in 2016 too — the only…
Easter Egg Jewelry
Believe it or not, charm bracelets have existed for millennia! While I’m normally obsessed with ancient artifacts, my favorite charms are of more recent vintage — generally the 20th century, when a lot of clever mechanical pieces were produced. I love designing mechanical jewelry myself, and I was once inspired by an old charm, though…
