Eyes on the Prizes

December 8, 2008 by WendyB

My peeps, take a moment to visit Grant Miller Media and vote for me in the Drysdale Awards. What are the Drysdale Awards, you ask? Well, they’re like the Oscars for bloggers, meaning that the winners will accept their awards while wearing sweatpants and t-shirts with week-old tomato-sauce stains on them rather than gowns and…

Sprouse Is Back, Back Again

December 1, 2008 by WendyB

I perked up yesterday when I read that Louis Vuitton is doing another round of Stephen Sprouse designs (click here and here). I always had a thing for the late Sprouse. He might have been one of the first designers I was ever aware of, thanks to the Sprouse dress worn by Debbie Harry in…

December 1, 2008 by WendyB

Sorry to show you something you can’t have, but anyone who is a fan of bustles and/or ruffles really missed out on this Anna Sui denim skirt. It went for only $19.99 on eBay. Front Back Butt ruffles are the next best thing to butt bows. Something that I’d love to see on eBay for…

November 24, 2008 by WendyB

Thanks to kink-tastic blogger Asudem Latex of Doll’s Realm for pointing out the work of Munich-based designer Marcel Ostertag. Asudem had written about this designer before but this time the photos really grabbed me: shiny fabric, ruffles and leopard print … and shiny leopard print! What more could I ask for?

Camouflage on eBay

November 17, 2008 by WendyB

I would like to wear this dress to a modern art museum and attempt to blend in with a painting. Maybe Jill at Trend de la Creme can find the right painting for me. The shapes remind me of this Picasso but the color scheme is wrong. UPDATED TO ADD: Jill came through for me,…

This photo is dedicated to fashion icon Daphne Guinness’s…
