More peacocks! This hairclip is $62 at Shopbop. Shopbop describes it as “So Stevie Nicks circa 1979,” but to me it’s “So Mahwah High School circa 1982.” I guess we were behind the times. The Shopbop version is all snazzy, with a plastic comb-like clip. That’s not how it was originally done! Back in the…
Put It in Neutral
I don’t usually go for neutral-colored shoes, but I got two pairs this spring. First, I got inexpensive canvas and pleather sandals from Old Navy. The pleather initially had a strong chemical smell, but it has subsided. At least I didn’t have to hang the shoes out the window like I did with a cheap,…
Cream of the Cropped on eBay
While browsing eBay, this graphic, cropped jacket from Versace’s Versus line caught my eye. Gorgeous jacket, right? However, I don’t like that the seller used “Gianni Versace” in the title of the listing and saved the “Versus” information for the description. The title could have easily said “Versace Versus,” which would have been honest while…
TV Alert
Whatcha doing tonight? Spending quality time with the family, you say? Ha! I knew you weren’t doing anything important. You have no excuse not to watch this ProPublica/60 Minutes report on the U.S.-funded Alhurra television network, which spews anti-American propaganda in the Middle East, with a dash of Holocaust denial to add flava. If you…

Seven Songs Have Sprung
Gorgeous blogger Sharon Rose tagged me to share my “seven songs for spring.” Since spring is over in a matter of hours, I considered waiting till spring 2009 to do this. Procrastinating would allow me to figure out exactly what this tag was about. Am I supposed to share seven songs I listened to this…
Jets and Sharks Will Fear Us
This dress will qualify you for my Golden Girls gang. Click here for eBay auction I ordered these Marc by Marc Jacobs boots thinking I could kick some ass Golden-Girls style, but they didn’t fit, so back they go. You can’t kick ass if your feet aren’t comfortable.
Thursday Book Club: Katherine Swynford
Now that I think about it, it makes sense that Henry VIII (also known to Googlers as “Henry teh 8) was addicted to love. It was in his genes! The corpulent lady-killer was a descendant of notorious 14th-century lovers: John of Gaunt and Katherine Swynford. John of Gaunt wasn’t called that because he was rexi.He…
Happy Birthday to My Two Favorite Guys
Well, they were my favorites when I was 15! Paul McCartney is 66 today. Sixty-six is an excellent age for a man, or so MrB tells me. And my beloved John Taylor of Duran Duran will turn 48 on Friday. Hawt! I had good taste as a teenager, didn’t I? UPDATED TO ADD: McGone points…
