I got this dress at 40% off and they threw in a belt I liked for free. The store manager is named Loretta and she is a doll.

I'm going to wear it when we go to Vegas in August. Don't be jealous
but we're getting back stage tickets to Don Rickles, I know, but
someone has to live all this glamour.

I love peep-toe pumps. I love my toes and I love cheese, but I do not love when my lunch spills and I get parmesan cheese between my toes.

How great would it be to see people's reactions to wearing this Junya Watanabe hat around town?

In my dreams I buy it and give you a detailed report. 

The YSL boutique on Maiden Lane, in San Francisco, is having a sale starting tomorrow (May 28th).

Word on the street is that stuff will be 30% - 40% off.

Hooray YSL! 

For that party you don't really want to go to anyway.

When the heat hits San Francisco, two of my favorite street styles appear.

One is the woman wearing a sun dress, who looks uncomfortable, and sort of stunned, about her unusual level of public nakedness.

It only makes sense. I too own a sun dress that sits in my closet waiting for the one hot day in SF. , but when that day comes I just can't stand to be that physically exposed. So I leave it in the closet and wear my normal clothes which are way too hot. Which leads to my absolute favorite SF hot day style.

Look in any park or on any quarter sized tuft of grass and you'll see people lying around with their jeans rolled up into shorts and their tops bunched up into half shirts. My husband, who comes from a place with actual summers, deemed this look The San Francisco Bikini. He thinks it's dumb, "why don't they just by shorts?"

But I think it's a style we SFers should wear proudly. It's the spontaneous expression of people who feel summer heat so rarely that they'll bunch up their clothes and plop down on bum piss covered grass just to get a piece of it. That kind of gumption should only be admired.

I've always had curly hair and I've spent my life battling it. Then I saw Goldfrapp with this hairdo and I had a revelation. The time and money I waste trying to fight my natural hair is just stupid, it's time to embrace it and go for the gusto.

I'm becoming more and more anti people trying to go against their natural looks, so hell if I'm going to do it myself. It's a sad waste of nature's extravagance.

Take any man-made structure and compare it to the beauty and innovation of nature's creations. Man-made stuff fails miserably, even the most innovative and creative man-made structures are just attempts at a closer imitation of nature.

So if we wrestle our bodies into some manmade idea of what we should look like, we castrate our innate beauty. And yet that's exactly what we do, we spend our time and money trying to battle the attributes we're given by nature itself, like my friend who hides her amazing booty, or my sister blowdries the curl out of her hair every day.

I know it benefits lots of people for us to spend time and money trying to change our physical appearance and that we're under a constant marketing onslaught because of this.

But we're much stronger than that, if only because we have nature and truth on our side.

Can anybody make this for me? The feather's are beyond my ability. Not that I want to go to Heaven yet, but you know.
