Come On, Get Happy
I dare you to be in a bad mood while wearing this vintage dress. $160 at Dorothea’s Closet I bet you’re in a better mood just looking at it! Now for some Partridge Family to put you right over the top.
Ready, Set, Shop!
It’s the official start of the holiday shopping season, which means you should be thinking of holiday cards. I wanted to support a small business, so I ordered these beautiful and nondenominational Red Blossom cards from Nouveau Designs on Etsy earlier this month. Noveau Designs did a custom order for me in a larger-than-normal quantity,…
Adding to My Art Collection
Gorgeous blogger ENC has created some new dress-based art for me. In case you don’t know the back story, it is as follows: I found an Alexander McQueen dress on eBay that looked like modern art; then Jill put me and the dress into some art; and then Danielle made another contribution. And here are…
Happy Very Belated Birthday to Me
When I turned 40 last December, my gorgeous mother, BarbaraB, told me she wanted to take me shopping for a special birthday present. I couldn’t take the pressure of picking out my own gift for such a momentous occasion. I felt it had to be something amazing that I would never buy for myself. Tricky!…

Worried you’re not wasting enough time online? I’ve got the solution. GigaPan is a website where people share extremely hi-res (gigapixel!) panoramic photos. You can see people’s photos from all over the world. It’s the gigapixel aspect that makes this more exciting than Flickr and other photo-sharing sites. For example, click here to see GeorgeB’s…
Miro, Miro on the Wall
Gorgeous blogger Danielle of Sexie Time has added to the WendyB art collection started by gorgeous blogger Jill. Where’s WendyB? Thanks, Danielle!
Blending In
Gorgeous blogger Jill from Trend de la Creme is too good to be true. Yesterday, when I speculated that a dress I saw on eBay MUST match a work of art, she came through with multiple suggestions. Today, she topped that by Photoshopping me and the dress into the art. “Where’s WendyB?” Clearly, if I…
Wish List
My birthday is coming up in December. I’m sure many of you are reacting to that news by thinking, “I only have $15,000 to spend on Wendy’s birthday present. What in the world will I get her?” Not to worry. I would be thrilled to get a needlepoint pillow by Brigid Berlin, and what do…
