“That International Zensation … Fraulein Sally Bowles”

October 5, 2012 by WendyB

I enjoyed reading this 1973 interview with Liza Minnelli, posted by gorgeous blogger Liz of Vintage-a-Peel yesterday. Liza talked custom-made eyelashes and glittery shoes, and showed off some of her Halston outfits. She also namechecked Marchesa Luisa Casati, 30 years before the womenswear label Marchesa was named after the exotically dressed socialite of the early…

So What? I’m Still a Rock Star!

October 1, 2012 by WendyB

Pink’s “So What?” video is so funny and cute. Pink looks especially adorable 25 seconds in, when she’s wearing a denim halter jumpsuit and trying to start a fight with a guy in a guitar store. Is that a good enough reason to get this denim halter jumpsuit from Anthropologie? Pink did say, “I don’t…

Rihanna Likes Nipples

September 29, 2012 by WendyB

I’m happy to see Rihanna is still enjoying her boobacious Mud Flap Jill necklace from my WENDYB by Wendy Brandes collection. She was wearing it again in London on Wednesday, after being seen with it on in Las Vegas the previous week. Rihanna’s shapely-lady necklace is 18K yellow gold with ruby nipples. A silver version…

My Best Dressed at the Emmys: Emilia Clarke

September 24, 2012 by WendyB

Unlike this year’s Golden Globes and SAG Awards, the Emmy Awards didn’t inspire me to bestow my coveted Best Dressed/Wear What You Want combo award upon anyone. Too much cement, too many safe looks. But there was one dress that made me think, “I would wear that”: Emilia Clarke’s (Daenerys Targaryen on Game of Thrones)…

Cement Strikes Back at the Emmys

September 23, 2012 by WendyB

Two years ago, I spent the Oscars complaining about the popularity of dresses in hues that reminded me of cement.  Alas, the cement-colored dresses are back at tonight’s Emmy Awards. Here are two: Emily Van Camp Connie Britton Also representing the sidewalk were Morena Baccarin of Homeland in Basil Soda, Sarah Hyland of Modern Family…

I’m blowing kisses at Adeline of ShontelleDaily.com, who, after my post yesterday, found photos on Rihanna-Diva.com that prove Rihanna was wearing my Mud Flap Jill necklace at the iHeartMusic festival in Las Vegas. The necklace can be seen clearly in this photo when you enlarge it … … and there’s another photo here. But the…

Let’s All Stare at Rihanna’s Chest

September 22, 2012 by WendyB

I couldn’t sleep last night so I was surfing around teh Internets and came across some new photos of Rihanna. I noticed that she was wearing a couple of little necklaces, although they were barely visible in the photos. I thought, “I wish she were wearing one of my necklaces.” Then I said aloud: “WAIT!…

Shontelle Shows Two Clemence Rings Are Even Better Than One

September 16, 2012 by WendyB

Quite a few people have stacked two of my Clemence rings together, but I’ve never managed to get a picture. Gorgeous singer Shontelle (“Impossible“) ended my photo drought last Wednesday when she performed and modeled at the “Real Fashion, Real Women” show benefiting Bottomless Closet. She wore my 18K-gold Clemence ring in rock crystal and…

MTV VMA Fashion: Short Hair Don’t Care

September 7, 2012 by WendyB

I was digging the short hairdos at MTV’s Video Music Awards last night. Of course, Pink has been a devotee of short hair for years. But she had more company than usual at the VMAs. Miley Cyrus went short last month, and her hair looked great glammed up for the event. I’ve adored many of…
