Ossie on eBay

June 5, 2008 by WendyB

There’s an amazing Ossie Clark snakeskin coat on eBay. As you might recall, I have the jacket version. Unfortunately, the coat is part of a “live auction.” I’ve never bid in one of those on eBay because of all the extra charges. In this case, the “buyer’s premium” is 22.5%! Plus, I don’t like this…

Proud as a Peacock

June 2, 2008 by WendyB

When I saw the peacock dress that Eva Longoria recently wore in Cannes, I wondered if it was the same dress I tried on at my friend Zang Toi‘s studio a couple of years ago. It was! Back in the day, MrB loved the teeny-tiny dress on me, but I was more interested in the…

Our Favorite Flavor? Crackberry!

May 27, 2008 by WendyB

Even when traveling, we never leave work behind. ENC caught MrB and me doing the email thing at the San Diego Zoo yesterday. In our defense, we were waiting for her to emerge from the restroom. It’s not like we were ignoring the pandas, koalas and giant anteaters. We gave them plenty of attention. In…

I Thought I Looked Purrfect

May 20, 2008 by WendyB

Well, it turns out WWD didn’t think I was a hot pussy in my vintage Patrick Kelly dress! I never expected the average person to appreciate that drag-a-licious gown, but being on a “Disaster Area” page next to Susan Sarandon exceeded my wildest hopes and dreams. Mee-Wow!(That WAS a very tight dress and not a…

Shadows and Dust, Leather and Ruffles

May 19, 2008 by WendyB

Last month, I was infatuated with the ruffled leather jacket by Shadows and Dust in Craig’s photo of Amanda de Simone. Photo from Altamira NYC I contacted Shadows and Dust and they referred me right back to Amanda, who happens to be their rep here in New York. Sadly, I didn’t rock the jacket like…

Bloggers’ Delight

May 17, 2008 by WendyB

The handsome street-style blogger Craig of Altamira NYC was kind enough to arrange a bloggers’ get-together this evening. Be sure to keep an eye on his blog for photos. He took a few pictures of me standing on the street and after a shot or two, suggested I try a pose that looked a more…

Just When You Thought It Was Safe…

May 15, 2008 by WendyB

…and you weren’t going to read anything else about big pussies…. Oh noes!!!! In reality, that cat is one of the most petite pussies I have ever encountered. It’s just the angle of the camera that is making him look so large.

Can’t Get Enough WendyB?

May 14, 2008 by WendyB

If so, you need help! Seriously, even I’ve had enough of me. If it were possible, I’d go on a vacation without me. That said, it was awfully nice of gorgeous blogger Vyque from Fasshonaburu to do a big interview with … me. Check it out here for her sake! Totally random 2003 photo of…

We’ll Start Our Own Gang

May 14, 2008 by WendyB

One of you has to buy this sequined Antik Batik jacket. It’s on sale at Yoox for $130, down from $268. I’ll wear my matching sequined Antik Batik dress. We’ll start a terrifying gang called the Golden Girls and have violent initiation ceremonies. For our more casual gang days, you’ll need a pair of Acne…

Have Dust Ruffle, Will Travel

May 8, 2008 by WendyB

Last week, our friend David Ng, the executive editor of the New York Daily News, received an award from the Asian American Federation. I wore a dress by Zang Toi to the celebratory dinner. Isn’t it a little like couch upholstery, complete with dust ruffle? But in a nice way. David told a touching story…
