Surely I need this vintage, pink, tulle, mullet skirt for something, right? Maybe it’s time for me to fulfill my ambitions of recreating Pat Benatar’s 1983 “Love Is a Battlefield” video. The skirt would fit right in. This video has so much hilarity in it, but my favorite bit is at the beginning when Pat…

Marc by Marc Jacobs and My Yellow Rain Boots
Marc Jacobs today confirmed that his lower-priced Marc by Marc Jacobs line would be absorbed into the main Marc Jacobs brand. The move was first reported by WWD last week. My main interest in this stems from a Glamour story on the best looks of the Marc by Marc Jacobs line over the years. It…
I Need a Vintage Ozbek Dress … and a Time Machine
You never get over your first love. I don’t mean your middle-school crush or high-school boyfriend/girlfriend. Who cares about those people?! Damn, I can’t even remember any names. The romantic feelings that last are your first music and fashion loves. Even if you don’t listen to those bands or wear those styles any more, I…
What Wendy Wore: Vintage Moschino With Gangsta Boo
I got to see my gorgeous rapper friend Gangsta Boo while I was out in Los Angeles for the Oscars a couple of weeks ago. We went to dinner at Philippe Chow with Boo’s boo Emmet and MrB. We enjoyed the filet mignon with broccoli and the hopping restaurant scene. I swear, Boo knew everyone…
Introducing Moko
Last year, a British singer named Moko caught my eye as well as my ear when she put out an EP (her second) called Gold. Can you blame me? Look at this woman! I’m obsessed with her look. Talk about a signature hair style! Moko’s got substance as well as style. In 2013, she put…
Madonna Is Queen
Madonna took a bad fall while performing “Living for Love” at the Brit Awards in London last night. Apparently, an Armani cape that was supposed to open when tugged by a dancer didn’t, so Madonna was yanked down several stairs by her neck. The lyrics of “Living for Love” include: “Took me to heaven and…
My Best Dressed at the Oscars: It’s Split Down the Middle!
Damn! Where was Moonstruck-era Cher when I needed her on Oscar night? For that matter, where was Rihanna? Bad Gal RiRi’s puffy, pink Giambattista Valli gown made a huge impression at the Grammys earlier this month, but it would have been the obvious winner of my coveted Best Dressed/Wear What You Want combo award on…
My Best Dressed at the Grammys: Sia and Her Child Minion
When wig-loving, face-hiding singer Sia hit the Grammy red carpet a short while ago with a supersized hairpiece and a matching child dancer in tow, I knew my search was over. Sia is the winner of my coveted Best Dressed/Wear What You Want combo award for the 2015 Grammy Awards. View image | gettyimages.com As…
Fifty Shades of (Skylar) Grey on iTunes
Congrats to my girl Skylar Grey for hitting #1 on iTunes earlier today with her song “I Know You” from the Fifty Shades of Grey soundtrack. You can also watch it on Vevo. Between this song and Beyonce’s sex-ay remake of “Crazy in Love,” I’m very interested in this soundtrack! Don’t ask me about the…
What Wendy Wore: Billy Idol at the Beacon Theatre
It was a nice day for a white wedding yesterday, but an even better day to see Billy Idol at the Beacon Theatre in New York City. I first saw Billy live nearly 31 years ago … to the day! That show was at the Capitol Theatre in Passaic, N.J., on Feb. 4, 1984. I…
