Throwback Thursday: 1996 Dress, Hair and Photobomb

March 28, 2013 by WendyB

I’ve always had a passion for cherry prints. I got a Louis Vuitton Cerise cherry-print bag in 2005 in part because it reminded me of a satin-y Cynthia Rowley cherry-print dress that I wore in 1996. I got the dress at a sample sale and I was so happy with it. I wore it with…

What Wendy Wore: Dolce & Gabbana and Rihanna’s Necklace

March 25, 2013 by WendyB

I sure do love leopard print, and one of my major fashion regrets is that I missed out on a two-toned leopard-print dress by Dolce & Gabbana in 2010. After I saw this bit of perfection on Rihanna I searched for it everywhere but to no avail. It was sold out in my size. I’m…

What Wendy Wore: Leopard-Print DVF From 2002

March 18, 2013 by WendyB

While reading this weekend’s Wall Street Journal, I laughed a little over a story called, “The One That Got Away,” about shopping for past-season, but not-officially-vintage fashion on Yoox, eBay, and a number of recently launched pre-owned clothing sites. In particular, these two sentences amused me: “Buying clothes in this way, however, requires a change…

Fall 2013’s Fur-Skirt Mini-Trend; Plus, Phind Me on Pheed!

March 7, 2013 by WendyB

The Fall 2013 fashion shows have wrapped up and Eric Wilson of The New York Times, who observed a lot of mini-trends on the runways, picked one that stood out to him: “… most intriguing, both in its pervasiveness and its silliness,” he wrote, “is the fur skirt.” But, Wilson wondered, why does the fur…

Another Interesting Sighting in Los Angeles

March 4, 2013 by WendyB

I almost forgot to report that Sam Waterston wasn’t the only interesting person I spotted in my hotel in Los Angeles last week.  The first night we were there, MrB and I went to get a drink at the bar. I was excited to see a large white dog snoozing on the floor by a…

March 1, 2013 by WendyB

We’re heading back to New York today, though I wish I could stay a few more days in Los Angeles, just to go to the movies if nothing else. I finally saw Django Unchained and Life of Pi while we were out here, because they were playing at the fabulous Arclight Cinemas in Hollywood. In…

Reporting From Cloud Nine

February 28, 2013 by WendyB

In 2009, I saw my idol, Coco, and her hot pimp, Ice-T, in a Los Angeles hotel, but I was too shy to say anything to them. I’m proud to say I learned from that experience. Today, when I saw actor Sam Waterston and his beauteous eyebrows in a (different) hotel, I took action. He…
