Oscars 2008: Best Dress and Jewelry

February 25, 2008 by WendyB

The best outfits on the Oscars were from the archives: Cher’s Bob Mackie extravaganzas and Barbra Streisand’s Arnold Scaasi peekaboo pantsuit. Embed from Getty Images As I’ve said before, I don’t care for the self-appointed fashion police. They persecute anyone who does something a little different, only to cry buckets when people play it safe….

Coco AKA "Bitch, Get Over Here"

February 15, 2008 by WendyB

I’ve been distressed recently because my idol, Coco, is in Playboy Magazine, and while I have a free lifetime subscription to Playboy, some of you do not. I have been up nights worrying about you peeps missing out on Coco’s big moment. Well, now I can sleep easy thanks to Playboy.com and 10 milligrams of…

Bows, and People Who Don’t Love Bows

February 6, 2008 by WendyB

Designers are finally taking my bow declaration to heart. Bows abound. (Nice work, Gwyneth.) Unfortunately they seem to be in the wrong place. Get those bows away from the neck and back on the butt where they belong! And since some people have asked, of course I loved Sandra Oh’s lambasted-till-someone-got-educated SAG award gown! Embed…

My Latest Ode to Latex Love

February 3, 2008 by WendyB

Practically Pregnant in Every Way reminded me that the insanely beauteous Monica Belluci rocked a white latex dress in at least one of the Matrix movies. (Give me a break, peeps. She’s not a queen so I’m not going to do major research on what was worn in which movie.) Matrix peeps in black latex…

Unfrozen Caveman Blogger, Back on Display

January 29, 2008 by WendyB

“One hundred thousand years ago, a caveman was out hunting on the frozen wastes when he slipped and fell into a crevasse. In 1988, he was discovered by some scientists and thawed out. He then went to law school and became… Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer.” That was Saturday Night Live’s introduction for a series of skits…

The Middle of the Next Blog

January 16, 2008 by WendyB

Last night, my husband told a cab driver to stop “in the middle of the next blog, um, block!” We’ve got blogs on the brain, especially me, because I’m knee-deep in unanswered memes. I better get moving. Wardrobe Oxygen tagged me with this one, as did Diana of So Fash’On a while ago. 1. What…

Google Loves Wendy Brandes

January 15, 2008 by WendyB

I think Google likes me better since I shared the 2001 riding crop photo. Maybe Google wants me to make this my profile picture. Wendy Brandes will dazzle you with her shiny teefs and then beat you with her crop. Seriously, Google, why do we have such a difficult relationship? Right now, if you Google…

Damn! Coco Has a Pair of Big Ones!

January 10, 2008 by WendyB

Meet Coco the cat and her giant ears. What? Were you expecting someone else? Speaking of the other Coco, I think I have found my soulmate: someone who admires her just as much as I do.
