Good morning everyone! I have yet another cold. Turns out that working for a company of 100+ employees, in an open plan environment, is rather like sending a child to kindergarten seventh grade at the same time. By that I mean that you invite diverse families of germs into your system and serve virtual tea. [...]

I find her comments about stirring up a lot of reaction pretty true. Seemed like good follow up to yesterday’s hair post. See what you think. Share on Facebook Tweet!

Apropos Sue’s post on Sneaking Around Paris, you might also want to read Les Anti-Modernes today on youthful sneakers. Just a thought. Old dogs, new tricks.

Everybody breathe. Many of us have a three-day weekend here in the USA. Everyone who celebrates Christmas has finally, finally, dug out of the holiday task-accomplishment hole.

Danielle, congratulations! Random.Org chose you as the winner of Tommy Hilfiger’s very generous giveaway. To everyone who entered, thank you, thank you, thank you. I love to read what perfumes people wear, and why. Your comments have inspired me to read some books on the history of ornamental scent, and to report back, if interesting [...]

Two of my favorite bloggers wrote about Louis Vuitton just recently. First, we have the INIMITABLE Maximinimus, on about LV trunks. And yes, I did need to use the vociferous upper case. I had lunch with Maxi last week and the man is sui generis. Writes the heck out of everything and gives good advice, [...]
