Dear Ri Ri,
How you doin’ girl? Hope you’re hanging in there. I still haven’t watched your interview with Diane Sawyer. It’s on my DVR. It’s been a busy week. I’ll get to it. But I digress…
I normally love your edgy fashion style. You are young, you’re gorgeous, so I say, why not! Go nuts!
But, sweetie, [...]

I can die happy now. Yesterday, I spoke to Tim Gunn.
Now, it wasn’t exactly over lunch at the Da Silvano. It was at a shopping mall in Virginia surrounded by a couple hundred other people. Still, it was a magical moment for me.
Let me back up. I heard that Tim Gunn was coming as part [...]

Michelle Obama. HOW could she have spent a second NOT on this [...]
