Acne Away!

July 28, 2008 by WendyB

I was unable to resist trying the studded Acne skirt I posted here. Usually, hemlines that are sky-high on tall models are perfect on me. In this case, the skirt was as short as advertised. Yikes! When I told MrB that the skirt had to go back, he practically burst into tears. He thinks this…

Oh Lady E Meets Hairy Mary

July 28, 2008 by WendyB

Gorgeous blogger Oh Lady E was in town on Friday. We had dinner at Novita, then hopped a cab to Orchard Street to see if my friend Evan was at his shop. He wasn’t, so we wandered across the street to Hairy Mary’s Vintage & Design, where we met the delightful Sharon. Sharon has some…

Backup Dinner Outfit

July 22, 2008 by WendyB

Mr. B and I had to celebrate our anniversary last night because he has a work-related event tonight. I had outfit trauma while getting ready because I put on a vintage dress only to decide it needed alterations. This is what I wore instead. T-Bags dress, previously seen here.Dolce & Gabbana peep-toe booties, previously seen…

Red Lipstick #2: YSL Rouge Pur 131

July 18, 2008 by WendyB

Today’s red lipstick recommendation is YSL’s Rouge Pur 131, also known as Opium Red. It’s deeper than my favorite red. I found a wall in Krakow that kind of matched. This lipstick doesn’t have the extra lead or whatever it is that makes my favorite lipstick semi-permanent. Still, it survived a pierogi lunch.

An Example of Extremely Poor Planning

July 17, 2008 by WendyB

Tomorrow is our last full day of vacation … and we’ll be spending it in Auschwitz. I think I might have planned that better. On a happier note, I enjoyed molesting some ivy in Krakow today. (I decided to give the flowers a break.) Ivy League We also visited some good kings and queens at…

Greetings From Poland

July 16, 2008 by WendyB

The most gorgeous sight in Warsaw was definitely my friend Monika. I was sad when she went away for a month last fall, so imagine how I felt when she moved here (where she grew up) this spring. I was forced to hunt her down in her native land. At the city wall Cheers!

Red Lipstick #1: MAC’s Lasting Lust

July 15, 2008 by WendyB

A couple of people have asked me to comment on the red lipstick I wear. I’ve been feeling unqualified to do so because — even though I used to have a whole wardrobe of red lipsticks — I’ve been boringly faithful to MAC’s Pro Longwear Lipcolor in Lasting Lust for more than a year. As…
