You, as fabulous as me? I doubt it…   It was all about the total package for the Paw Vogue Fashionista 2014 Contest. And, for us judges – myself, FidoseofReality’s Carol Bryant and News 12, Connecticut’s Lauren Collier – it was also about the Meow-wow factor. The undisputed feline diva, Coco the Couture Cat, trotted off with an across-the-board sweep to take the top honor. In her submission picture, mom Teri Thorsteinson dressed her in a statement gown designed by Lola Teigland. The dress was siren red, perfect for the kitty with attitude, who doesn’t get… [Continue Reading]

“A picturesque walk along the beach followed by a surfing lesson, before being whisked off in a chauffeur-driven Rolls Royce Corniche convertible for a half-day pampering session at Harrods, to then return to sink into a sumptuous bed by a warming, wood-burning stove – sounds like the perfect holiday, right?” The UK’s The Luxury Channel isn’t describing the perfect holiday for us, no!

Sophia Loren in Sophia Loren Big brown eyes. Luxurious auburn hair. The model wave and walk.

Glamorous Kellyat the 2014 Oscars A fashion cop, a fierce individualist and a boundless animal lover, Kelly Osbourne is one interesting person. Her reinvention from on-the-fringe, overweight, drug-addicted rock star progeny to the unexpected glamorous tv presenter and fashion icon has been impressive and joyous. I love her outspoken and insightful take on what’s hot and what’s not, as a regular co-host and panelist on E’s Fashion Police, even if I don’t always agree. And, her presence on the Oscar’s red carpet with Ross Mathews (remember the Tonight show’s Ross the Intern?), means a razor sharp fashion… [Continue Reading]
