Yes, there are boy Duchess Dolls. Every once in a while they come forward with opinions, questions and sometimes even corrections. They're wrong, but they're guys. You know, so we let them mansplain. I meet some new ones. "What do women want?" They don't like my answer, "Everything." Disclaimer: Every Doll is different. Boys, if… Continue reading The Boys Have Questions…

Bellas For The Win…
PR and Event girls are usually on the ready for just about anything. Last minute decorating snafus, guest no shows, clothing mishaps--we aren't fazed by much. It's kind of, "Shit happens, step over it." Generally we have a bag full of solutions. And safety pins. And mini sewing kits; not that I know how to… Continue reading Bellas For The Win…
Housewives Rando…
Perhaps it's the heat. Perhaps it's perpetual obsession with lazing about in the South, parasol shading delicate skin and the lure of running away never seen or heard from again like a modern day Salinger. Only in a dress. And no lusting after twenty year olds. And all that hermity-ness. Really, I just want a… Continue reading Housewives Rando…
The Tweets Tell The Story…
Sunday morning tweets: Sisterella: "I'm starving. Hungover. Need food. Stat." Me: "I went back to bed. Hung and tired. Will only get up for something fat and greasy." Sisterella: "Hmmmm. Fat and greasy. Zipp's? Or Ajo's?" Me: "Ajo's. Noon. No, 11:30." Breakfast/Brunch/Lunch includes food for twenty-three and a Diet Coke the size of Kansas. The… Continue reading The Tweets Tell The Story…

Twitter tells us it's National French Fry Day. Although I eat fries whenever I feel like now, there was a time fries were the devil. It was when I was addicted to Tab. Remember Tab? The most perfect drink ever? The pink can. The burn down the throat on the way down. The perfect pairing… Continue reading Nostalgic? Fries Will Do That To A Girl…
The Makeup Rocks…
What is it about Oceans 8? The ladies? The Met Gala? The cameos? Aside from a couple Kardashians, the cameos are quite fetching. Miss Wintour appears to be working on her rep since Devil Wears Prada, does she not? Could it be the teaser that one of the beloved boys is dead? Yeah, that happens.… Continue reading The Makeup Rocks…
Updated Bodice Rippers…
The latest thing on the desk of The Duchess? Romance. As in writing. A request comes and since nary a project can I pass up, the challenge is on. The mind races to the bodice rippers of high school. There are the cruel, arrogant pirates who become putty in the hands of a good woman,… Continue reading Updated Bodice Rippers…
You Knew It Would Be Funny…
You knew the day would come and it would be hilarious, did you not? I meet an opposite sex person for coffee. And it's not business. How did it go? The baby toe that went in came right back out; as if stung by jellyfish. What I did walk away with? Advice for the gentlemen.… Continue reading You Knew It Would Be Funny…
My Dear Woman, You Aren’t Crazy…
"My dear woman, you aren't crazy." Ahh, the words every woman longs to hear. That and, "I've got the dishes. Why don't you go take a bath?" Words from an adoring mate? Nope. The opening line to this month's Book Club choice, Martinis & Menopause. Yep, we're talking the change in all its bloody, messy,… Continue reading My Dear Woman, You Aren’t Crazy…
Men Do’s and Don’ts…
A sweet friend sends over a photo--I think because she knows the ire it will insight. Take a look. Deep breath. Look away. Now try erasing that image from your brain. Does someone have my fan? Just in case any of our male Dolls are wondering on the latest trend wear, here's an outline of… Continue reading Men Do’s and Don’ts…
