I loved handsome blogger Dale<\/a>‘s comment on my last post<\/a>, referring to the Zang Toi dress that I wore to an Oscar party: “Awesome, why do I never get invited? Next time, it’s flowers on my ass and I’m a shoo-in!” Meanwhile, my gorgeous friend Jane, who was at the party, wondered, “Were the flowers way down on the back of your dress your response to the ‘butt bow<\/a>‘!?!” These remarks made me realize that ass flowers are, indeed, the new butt bow. I don’t mean that butt bows are going out of style — how could they? — but if a butt bow<\/a> is unavailable when urgently needed, you may substitute ass flowers.<\/p>\n

Separately, thanks to gorgeous blogger Jennine<\/a> of The Coveted<\/a> for the wonderful post<\/a> she wrote about me after coming over to check out my jewelry designs. As a bonus, she managed to take the only good photo I’ve ever had of one of my favorite Ossie Clark dresses, previously barely seen here<\/a>. I’ve always admired Jennine’s photography skills.<\/p>\n

Jennine is doing London Fashion Week now, so stay tuned to The Coveted<\/a> for more great pictures.<\/p>\n

UPDATED TO ADD: My vintage-loving and -selling friend Cherie of Shrimpton Couture<\/a> got so excited about Jennine’s photos of my Ossie that she gave me the star treatment on her blog<\/a>. She also has a number of Ossies for sale. If you buy one, maybe you will get the star treatment too. Go shopping here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

UPDATED AGAIN TO ADD: Here’s a picture from the party of me with Jane, who, as I mentioned above, gets credit for the ass flower\/butt bow connection. Jane was wearing a fabulous ’20s-style frock. The long necklace is perfect for that look.<\/p>\n
