It’s my birthday today. I was going to lie and tell y’all that I just turned 13. I’ve always wanted to be an ingenue. Plus, young blogging dynamo Tavi said she wouldn’t mind my jacking her style, age-wise. My plans were thwarted after gorgeous blogger Jayne included me in a “Chic of the Week” post,…

Thanks for Giving (II) and Thanks for Getting
Gorgeous blogger Suzanne of Idee Fixe lured me out in a fierce snowstorm last night. How could I resist her? On December 18, she admired my swear rings. On December 19, she bought them. That’s fine decision-making for you. Suzanne and her husband plowed into Manhattan in their four-wheel drive, picked up MrB and me,…
Audi Wears the Swear Rings
What a great jewelry week! I am being spoiled by my gorgeous blogging customers. First I got mind-blowing photos of Queen Michelle from Kingdom of Style wearing the hell out of my Wendy Brandes swear rings. Today Audi of Fashion for Nerds is getting all “talk to the hand” on our asses. Seeing these rings…
You Are All Winners
I’m devastated that I received a mere honorable mention in the race for the second annual Drysdale award for Blog With the Most Swearing. I was hoping to be a two-time winner in this category, but gorgeous blogger Gwen from Everything I Like Causes Cancer beat my ass. To Gwen, I say, “Congratulations!” and “Fuck…
Queen Michelle Wears the Swear Rings
I swear! How gorgeous is blogger Queen Michelle from Kingdom of Style? Look at her modeling her new Wendy Brandes swear rings. Not only does Queen Michelle make the rings look great, but she’s probably the best advertisement for long hair that I’ve ever seen. She better hope I don’t catch her, because she would…
Buy It Now: Wendy Brandes Swear Rings
As I’ve been telling y’all, I have been nominated for three “prestigious” Drysdale awards: Blog With the Most Swearing, Blog That is Clearly Contracted to Endorse a Product or Service, and Blogger of the Year. I deserve to win all three. Not only do I swear plenty myself, but I have created a product that…
Photo Flashback to Zang Toi’s Showroom
I’ve been so busy lately that I haven’t been able to post quite a few photos. Time to catch up! House photographer GeorgeB took this picture of me, my designing friend Zang Toi and Zang’s friends at the holiday sale I had at Zang’s showroom last month. From left to right: Don, me, Zang, Jassemine,…
Outfit Post, Almost Starring Jude and Sienna
I was amused to read that actors and ex-lovebirds Jude Law and Sienna Miller were spotted last week at the restaurant Emporio, home of my favorite peach sangria. My former employer, People.com, earnestly quotes a restaurant source as saying that couple opted to sit out front rather than in a “private seat in the back…
Vote, Damn You!
Last year, after winning both my categories (Blog With the Most Swears and Blog With the Most Pictures of the Blogger) in the “prestigious” Drysdale Awards thanks to an exhausting and exhaustive campaign, I had a Shermanesque attitude about potential future Drysdales. “I will not accept if nominated and will not serve if elected,” I…
Thanks for Giving, Part I
Several gorgeous bloggers have surprised me with thoughtful gifts over the past few months. I’ve thanked them by email, but it’s way past time to thank them publicly. I still need to take photos of several items, so I’ll start out with just one: the Ghostbusters uniform Halloween dress made by Practically Perfect in Every…
