Animals

I, Max.

April 14, 2008 by WendyB

My gorgeous sister Terri Berry and her handsome husband Tim Berry are the proud parents of a rescued Pekingese named Max. When they first got him, I congratulated her on his unique name. Then I suggested she liven it up by giving him a middle initial and last name too. “Max E. Pad” has a…

Henry Stays on Top of His Reading

April 10, 2008 by WendyB

When a giant coffee table book about the jewelers Van Cleef & Arpels was left on Henry’s side of the couch, he showed it who was boss. “First the Balenciaga, now this? GRRR.”

Black, White and Floral All Over

April 8, 2008 by WendyB

I like the Balenciaga “Floral City Classic,” now available at Barneys for $1595. You can’t get it online; it’s only available at the store. How old-fashioned! I have one Balenciaga bag in bubblegum pink. Here’s Henry wearing it. Doesn’t look too happy about this, does he? Getting back to black and white, I also like…

Gorgeous and Delicious

America’s Next Top Model: WendyB

March 21, 2008 by WendyB

Yesterday I was doing a photo shoot with Marie Claire for a portrait to accompany an essay I wrote for the magazine (I’ll let you know when it’s time to buy my issue). As you may have noticed, I’m always very smiley in photos, but the magazine wanted a “serious” look. I thought I had…

Doggy Style. Literally.

March 4, 2008 by WendyB

The dogs are going to the groomer today. Thank God, because they smell like Limburger cheese. The smell of unwashed Pekingese. Gigi always gets the same ‘do, which suits her perfectly straight hair and minimizes her large (for a Peke) schnozz. Gigi, the Barbra Streisand of Pekes* But I’m not sure what to do with…

February 26, 2008 by WendyB

Thanks to Lotsa ‘Splainin’ 2 Do for letting me know that the lolcats peeps at I Can Has Cheez Burger have come up with I Has a Hot Dog for the canine set. The more lol, the better!

Oscars 2008*

February 24, 2008 by WendyB

I’ve seen some real dogs on the red carpet, but this is ridiculous. *I kid, I kid. Don’t waste your time looking for this tutu-wearing French bulldog in People Magazine. This photo is from 2006. Those are my toes (and hem) in the picture, but she’s not my dog. I don’t know who she belonged…

Post #400: A New Handbag Has Arrived

February 7, 2008 by WendyB

I wouldn’t let Henry get close to this new Prada bag because I am dithering about whether to keep it. What to do …. what to do …. “Why do I have to pose with handbags anyway?” Previously, he was allowed to hang out with a Vuitton. “Stephen Sprouse was so genius.” And he got…
