WendyB in the New York Times

November 29, 2008 by WendyB

Click the image below to enlarge, then look in the lower left corner of the page for the Committee to Protect Journalists party. There I am in picture No. 15 in glorious black and white. Right under me, in No. 17, you’ll see gorgeous client Melissa, who was my guest that night, with MrB and David Schlesinger.


Today’s other claim to fame is this post on a Russian blog. Gorgeous blogger Olga of Fashionably Cute translates it as, “How could I miss it? Ugly Betty’s pendant=Anne Boleyn pendant.” Then there’s a link to this Anne Boleyn post. Olga also told me there is a comment under that entry saying “Wonderful.” Thanks for the mention and the compliment, Russian peeps! And thanks, too, to Olga. By the way, Fashionably Cute is on hiatus while Olga works on many fabulous projects. I hope we’ll hear from her again soon.

    Fantastimondo! Proper recognition for the achievers, the fashionable and the fortunate. By the way, have I told you that my first name is Olga? I loved reading it repeatedly in your post, WendyB.

    Glad you enjoyed the felt Thanksgiving dinner at Portland Oregon Daily Photo.

    This kind of glamour blows my mind! There’s something about the Hawthorne Gleaner – where my photo recently was – that isn’t quite NYT… Great post.
