True Blood-Inspired Temporary Tattoo

June 20, 2010 by WendyB

Last weekend, I wore a stake for a True Blood viewing party. This week, I’m wearing a vampire-themed temporary tattoo I got at Coney Island. Here’s a close-up. My vampire looks much more like Sesame Street’s Count than like Eric Northman, so thank goodness he’s not permanent. A much better True Blood tribute is Snoop…

My True Blood Party Style

June 13, 2010 by WendyB

Tonight I’m at gorgeous blogger Tina’s apartment to watch True Blood‘s season 3 premiere. My jewel for the evening is a luxe version of the silver Vampire Diana ring from Friday’s post. The silver ring has a silver heart and silver stake that was made all as one piece (fewer parts means lower labor costs)….

Jewels of the Month: Vamping It Up for True Blood

June 11, 2010 by WendyB

I couldn’t wait for True Blood’s third season to start this Sunday on HBO so I recently spent three days reading eight of the Charlaine Harris books that inspired the show. I downloaded them one at a time on a Kindle and, by the end of the three days, my credit card company was calling…

What Wendy Wore: California Three-Peat

June 7, 2010 by WendyB

While I was packing for last week’s trip to Los Angeles, I remembered that I had unintentionally worn the same outfit and posed in the exact same location on L.A. visits in March 2008 and December 2008. This called for a three-peat, so I packed my Black Halo top, black Acne jeans, 16-year-old Karl Lagerfeld…

Sex and the International Cities

June 4, 2010 by WendyB

I love that gorgeous bloggers around the world are taking pictures of Samantha (Kim Cattrall) wearing my Cleopatra earrings on screen during Sex and the City 2! That said, I discourage you from doing this without permission because people are very uptight about movie piracy. If someone thinks you’re recording the whole movie,  your ass…

On the Town: Ting Tings & Richard Prince T-Shirts

June 3, 2010 by WendyB

I’ve been so busy with Sex and the City 2 that I didn’t get to share some pictures from a great Ting Tings concert a couple of weeks ago. The show was part of a series of free concerts sponsored by Microsoft’s new line of KIN “social phones.” “Social phones” sound to me like phones…

On the Town Epic Post: Celebrating Sex and the City 2

May 29, 2010 by WendyB

In case you’re new to this blog and haven’t read the TEN MILLION posts I’ve done on this topic … guess what?! My Cleopatra earrings are worn by Samantha (Kim Cattrall) in Sex and the City 2! I wanted to see the movie on opening night. At first, I thought MrB and I would have…

On the Town: My Sex and the City 2 Peeps

May 28, 2010 by WendyB

Thank you to the gorgeous friends and family members who came out to see Sex and the City 2 on its premiere night at New York’s fabulous Ziegfeld Theater.  When our group cheered out loud at the appearance of my earrings on Kim Cattrall’s lobes, I nearly burst with happiness. If you look closely at…

The Musings of Aquarius

May 26, 2010 by WendyB

Here are a few thoughts I had while watching Hair on Broadway with gorgeous blogger La Belette Rouge last week. Oh, young people, you are so annoying with your crazy outfits, personal hedonism disguised as political activism, and constant requests for parental money! Did hippies really wear lace-front wigs? If Prada makes an outrageously expensive…

Congratulations, SATC2 Polyvore Contest Winners!

May 24, 2010 by WendyB

Thank you to everyone who entered the Polyvore contest for my Sex and the City 2 earrings. I loved all the entries so much that I cracked under the stress, thought I was on American Idol and developed multiple-personality judging disorder. First, I got hostile like Simon Cowell. Then I got delirious like Paula Abdul….
