I suddenly realized that my new catalog, like the Abominable Snowman, is spoken of but never seen. If you would like to receive a PDF of the catalog, send an email to wbjewelry at hotmail dot com. The catalog is a much better representation of my recent work than the Gigi Caron site, which has…
Boob Bowz? LOLZ!
My friend Jane suggested that since I successfully brought butt bows back, I should now tackle boob bows. Apparently, Anne Hathaway had a tough time with the boob bow sitch earlier this year. Jane has a now-dormant blog called Boycott the Bag. It had many smart and funny ideas in it, but let’s face it….
Do You Take This to Be Your Postage?
I went to the post office to mail some of my new catalogs and found this delightful stamp. I was very pleased. Who could resist buying from a jewelry catalog that was adorned with such a beautiful stamp? I was so happy that I looked it up online to share it with you peeps, thereby…
Self-Fulfilling Prophecy
Yesterday I was exceptionally annoyed by this first-person essay in the New York Times (registration required). Every week, the Modern Love column grates like fingernails on a chalkboard. After reading it I usually beat my head against the wall for a few minutes and feel much better. In the case of “My Sorority Pledge? I…
No, Really, This Is the Last Time
I declared I was out of the tag business, but since I am not inspired to write anything else right now, I will answer the tags of Diva in a Carry On and, belatedly, SkyBluePink. I know! I’m such a user. Seven more facts about me: I have four stepchildren. The oldest is six months…

Oh Noes!
My dearest friend Monika is going away for a whole month and leaving me bereft! I recently visited her in the ‘burbs and she forced me to meet her at a corner restaurant with a terrible pun for a name. I punished her by letting a hairy purple jacket chew her shoulder. I might sue…
I’m Lazy and Proud of It
First of all, no book club today. That’s not really due to laziness, though. I just want to do a better job on the post. I’ll be back with an empress next Thursday. My real laziness is that I would like to support other small business owners by buying some of my holiday gifts through…
More Shoes in the News
While in L.A., I found these Pierre Hardy shoes on sale at Neiman Marcus. Festive! A 37 was too small. A 38 was too big. Apparently, one 37.5 exists in the universe and the store is sending it to me. I’m very particular about how shoes fit, so I suspect I will be returning this…
Did You Miss Me?
I have a confession to make. I sneaked away to L.A. for a few days and never told y’all! I didn’t want you peeps to make a scene … all that weeping, wailing and begging me to stay is just not dignified! Snap out of it! While in L.A. , I wore some crazy Alaia…
