1. Actor Sam Waterston‘s eyebrows. I think the long-time Law & Order cast member deserves three Emmys: one for him and one for each eyebrow. I always feel like the brows are acting out little plots of their own. No other eyebrows are so special. Admittedly, some people would vote for Martin Scorsese‘s. While I’m…

For Social Butterflies Only
You shy people better move along. Nothing to see here. For the more daring fashionistas, I present the supersize Butterfly Ring. (Butterfly Ring © Wendy Brandes 2007-2008) (Photo by John Muggenborg) The ring is 3″ at its widest point and 2 1/2″ high. The sample was made with blackened sterling silver and set with CZ….
"It’s Like Climbing Mt. Everest!"
My enjoyment of the Jennifer Lopez “Defend Your Outfit” video inspired me to look for another fine J. Lo moment. Observe Ms. Lopez giving the hand to Triumph, the Insult Comic Dog, at the 2001 MTV VMAs. Did you miss the “Defend Your Outfit” clip? Check it out here. I swear, I watch that clip…
Almost the Craziest Celeb Story Ever
Over the weekend, I checked People.com and got the fright of my life, or at least the fright of that minute of my life. There was a story saying George Clooney had been injured in a motorcycle accident and directly under it, a story saying Britney Spears was charged in a hit-and-run. I thought, “Holy…
Edie Falco Wins Best Emmy Hair … IMHO
Didn’t Edie Falco look great last night? My very own personal hair guru, Keith Carpenter, did her hair. Good job, Keith! And of course I think Edie should have won because I am a huge Sopranos fan. Embed from Getty Images
My Latex Obsession
Leggings from The Row, via Sleep Deprivation and Stories of My Bullshit Youth I’m back in latex-blogging mode, thanks to gorgeous blogger Jen, who pointed out these latex-looking leggings from The Row. According to Paper Magazine, they’re actually stretch leather. I’m not particular about the material; it’s just the look I like. When Kate Moss…
If Messed-Up Britney Makes You Happy…
… maybe you’re a bit messed up too. So says this this Salon article (via Jezebel) on Britney Spears’s catastrophe at the VMAs. I appreciated Salon writer Rebecca Traister‘s piece in general, but particularly her comment on the “fat” criticism of Britney. I think that all the heat she’s gotten on her weight has been…
Lucy Liu Wore Evan’s Skirt!
Well, not his own personal skirt. I mean, I’ve never seen my friend Evan Ross prancing around in that skirt, but if he did, who am I to judge? “Wear What You Want” is my motto and if you are a man who wants to wear a skirt, more power to you. Anyway, since seeing…
Save Britney Spears!
Britney swimming with my Borgia ring. Britney Spears, my favorite jewelry thief, had a rough time at the VMAs last night. But America loves a comeback, and I sincerely hope she will get her act together. I know people are saying she’s over but if Richard Nixon can make a comeback, anyone can. Honestly, I…
Life Is Not a Cabaret. Stop Calling Me “Old Chum”!
“Pictures lie.” That’s what my hairstylist once told me when I was complaining that I had just discovered I looked craptastic thanks to a photo. I hope this one is lying its ass off. I’m just sharing it to show a different look (though not a different pose) from the Ossie Clark printed dress look….
