Break Open the Piggy Bank!

A Built by Wendy sample sale online? This is almost too good to be true. No elbow jabs to the ribs, no stripping down in front of strangers, no running to the ATM for cash and I don't have to leave the house??? Magical!

Pucci on My Mind

I have so many mental associations with Pucci that it’s hard for me to look at a Pucci print without thinking about one of the following scenarios:

A. A tan, lithe Marissa Berenson modeling a Pucci minidress in a sixties-era Harper’s Bazaar.

B. Nicole Richie and Rachel Zoe cleaning out the Pucci section in Decades after snorting lines of adderall in the bathroom.

C. A totally fly Pucci-clad grandma who spends 99% of her time lounging around her Palm Springs estate with a Capri cigarette dangling from her claw-like fingers.

I think I like the new Pucci campaign because it reminds me of the grandma scenario. Only it’s Stella Tennant instead of an actual grandma, which is kind of unfortunate. I would much prefer a tanorexic, Miss Havisham-esq granny hobbling around in a caftan with a teacup poodle and a cocktail. THAT would be fierce.

Celebrities Hanging Out With Other Celebrities

I get really excited whenever I see photos of celebrities that I like hanging out with other celebrities that I like. Like Anjelica Huston and Tilda Swinton at the Oscars. OK, so they weren’t exactly “hanging out” but I like to think that they talked smack about everyone’s dumb princess outfits and bonded over that whole ugly/pretty look that they both have going on. Seeing them together reminded me of another photo of Angelica Huston hanging out with Bianca Jagger at a Bob Dylan concert in the seventies. I realized that my computer is actually brimming with photos of fun and occasionally bizarre celebrity pairings, here are some of my faves:


Anjelica Huston & Tilda Swinton
