Photos"},"content":{"rendered":"

While I was agonizing over what to do with my nu shooz from L.A. (see the second update at the end of this post<\/a>), I was reminded that I’ve been meaning to share a photo of a favorite pair of old shooz. These Patrick Cox shoes were my first pair of wedges. I think I got them in the mid ’90s. I don’t wear them that often, but a couple of times a year I take them out and show them off.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>My skin isn’t really THAT pale. That’s from the flash.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

After reading this post<\/a>, Miss Woo<\/a> commented on my tiger-striped top, which is in reality a tiger-striped dress. I wear this dress to death but never seem to get a full-length picture of it. It’s a Clovis Ruffin<\/a> I won on eBay. Originally it was floor length, but I gave it the chop. I meant to wear it with black tights in L.A., but when I got there I realized I’d packed leggings (not latex leggings) instead of tights. I tried it on to see how it would look and didn’t like it, but at least you can see the full dress in this picture.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>On the last night of the trip, our fabulous friends Bruce and Michele took us to dinner at Dan Tana’s<\/a>, which was a laugh and a half. Quite a few of our fellow diners looked like this guy. But meaner.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Somehow, I felt too shy to corral Michele and Bruce into taking a photo for the blog. Instead, Paul took one of me back at the hotel. I am wearing the Black Halo top I got in Miami. It gives me a Studio 54 vibe. I’m wearing it with my usual Acne jeans and Lagerfeld shoes I got at the 1994 going-out-of-business sale at the New York branch of Galeries Lafayette.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I can barely remember my home phone number most of the time, but I can remember when and where I bought those shoes. Go figure! <\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
