StyleShot: Amanda

June 30, 2009

I love, love, love the salesgirls at Alannah Hill as much as I love the ultragirlie accessories (think Blair Waldorf-worthy headbands and loads of sparkle). The girls working at Alannah Hill are all coquettes wrapped in silk, cashmere, rhinestones, and old-world glamour. While in Sydney today, I spotted Amanda at Alannah Hill in the CBD [...]

Can I please see my mistress? Pretty please?

June 27, 2009

When it comes to fidelity, whether married or not, I am of one mind: dilly-dally, and it’s DONE. There is no I’m sorry. There is no it was just sex. There is no reconciliation or forgiveness or trying anew. In my relationships, I am unequivocal about cheating. Don’t test my Greek temper. Hell indeed hath [...]

Kickin’ it in Kings Cross

June 26, 2009

Had a great day yesterday here in Oz! Hopped a train in the morning to meet a new friend in Kings Cross for lunch. She took me to a fab little restaurant named Bill’s…little did I know I was about to eat lunch at a Darlinghurst (and Sydney) foodie landmark (thanks for that, friend!). Bill’s is [...]

LoveLeigh

June 24, 2009

I spend too much time on the Internet. Way too much. But my Internet travels always inform or inspire me somehow, so I suppose it is a vice of some value. Though I’m sure my husband would argue to the contrary. Some of my usual haunts are The New York Times’ Fashion & Style section; [...]

Almost Foxy

June 24, 2009

I don’t know who got hold of Megan Fox, but at least despite the horrific things that come out of her mouth, lately the girl has been looking tres chic. Then again, her recent appearances can also be considered public service announcements for how awful tattoos look with gorgeous gowns. They just don’t mix. The [...]

Gaga

June 22, 2009

I originally thought Lady Gaga was basically much ado about nothing. I stand corrected. Yes, she is Top 40 pop. A bit saccharine vocally. Clad in fetish-wear or underwear most of the time. Hmm. Madonna already did that. But. I have to admit that I have new-found respect for this girl. She’s into shock value [...]

Hello Kaufman Franco

June 21, 2009

Where the hell have I been? Under a rock? Does being Down Under count? Because I only just discovered the 2009 Fall/Winter collection by Kaufman Franco. To my credit, Kaufman Franco has not been in existence for years and years and years. While many celebrities have been spotted on the red carpet in dashing Kaufman [...]

Castlereigns

June 20, 2009

At least a couple times a month I try to venture out of my ‘hood here in Oz to discover some new locale and perchance to experience a vibe more conducive to my personality. Today, after some preliminary Web research, I threw on my most comfy towering heels and headed to the train station with [...]

The Field

June 18, 2009

My apartment in Oz overlooks a large fenced playing field (actually, two) which also has a small playground and buildings for male and female bathrooms. On Saturdays and Sundays, I love waking up, making coffee, and sipping it while watching soccer games being played on the adjacent field. Sometimes there are men playing, looking very serious, [...]

Please let this be over soon!

June 17, 2009

I pray that the new Sacha Baron Cohen persona/movie/annoyance comes and goes as fast as possible. I don’t think I can take months of looking at his shaved ass. Poor Isla. PS: What do Bruno and Lady Gaga have in common? Apparently, a “no-pants” policy.
