Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street. Fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening. ~Coco Chanel

Come and trim my Christmas tree
With some decorations bought at Tiffany
I immediately thought of those lyrics from “Santa Baby” when I saw this photo. Those little blue boxes aren’t decorations, but you get the idea.
Who sings the best version of “Santa Baby”? Earth Kitt, hands down. Click here and have a listen.
Only 10 days until Christmas, y’all!

Confession: I am a hardcore Christmas music fan.
I have a mix of about 40 songs that is basically on repeat from the day after Thanksgiving through Dec. 25. It’s obnoxious. And I don’t care.
I like hymns (“O Holy Night” is a fave), contemporary songs (“Last Christmas” by Wham never gets old to me), and traditional” songs (like “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas”).
The song I’ve shared here −“Christmas Tree” by Lady Gaga featuring Space Cowboy− has been added to the rotation after one listen. You could say it’s more naughty than nice. Sample lyrics:
Light me up, put me on top, let’s
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la, la, la
Light me up, put me on top, let’s
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la, la, la
Mmm hmm.
There’s also talk of taking off stockings and “spreading Christmas cheer.”
Mmm hmm.
Don’t say I didn’t warn you. And please don’t hold me responsible if this song gets stuck in your head. K, thanks.
