By now, most of you are aware of my fondness for my desktop Shopaholic’s Daily Calendar. This time, one of my favorite shoe designers provided some fantastic advice on wallet-conscious shoe shopping tips. If you’re going to buy just one pair, make it a neutral-color pump with nothing that imprisons the ankle. – Christian Louboutin, [...]

Who “owns” Fashion?
After listening to the Confessions of the Shopaholic soundtrack – which is fantastic, by the way – I realized that Lady Gaga sings the song, “Fashion”. This is the very same song that Heidi Montag, the “reality star” everyone loves to hate, debuted mid-2008. Interesting. Obviously Lady Gaga is a legit singer/performer and Heidi is [...]

My new favorite movie – Confessions of a Shopaholic
Last night I went to see a sneak-preview of Confessions of a Shopaholic, aka my new favorite movie. Sorry, SATC, you know I love ya, but this one is better. Going in, I had high hopes for this movie. Isla Fisher has been one of my favoite rising Hollywood starlets for a number of reasons: [...]
