In case you’re new to this blog and haven’t read the TEN MILLION posts I’ve done on this topic … guess what?! My Cleopatra earrings are worn by Samantha (Kim Cattrall) in Sex and the City 2! I wanted to see the movie on opening night. At first, I thought MrB and I would have…

On the Town: My Sex and the City 2 Peeps
Thank you to the gorgeous friends and family members who came out to see Sex and the City 2 on its premiere night at New York’s fabulous Ziegfeld Theater. When our group cheered out loud at the appearance of my earrings on Kim Cattrall’s lobes, I nearly burst with happiness. If you look closely at…
What Wendy Wore: Encounters With Bad Samaritans
MrB and I went to a dinner celebrating our gorgeous friend Joanna’s @&#th birthday last Thursday. That’s what the menu said: “@&#th Birthday Bash.” Unfortunately, I wasn’t wearing my swear rings to match the menu. Instead, I wore a vintage Ossie Clark maxi that I bought last year from Vintage-a-Peel and the Cleopatra necklace that…
Outfit Post: Learning Manners From Gang Members
For dinner at Sistina on Monday night, I decided my outfit should be “things I’ve had a long time that I haven’t worn in a long time.” The dress, the shoes and the bag were all acquired before 2005. Dress: Narciso Rodriguez Shoes: Michael Kors Bag: Vintage Hermes from Decades Necklace: My own Boleyn necklace…
Half an Outfit Post: MAC Violetta, Vintage Shades

Outfit Post: Some Things Old, Some Things Blue
It took me nearly two years, but I finally wore the white lace Dolce & Gabbana coat that I bought from Trudie Styler (aka Mrs. Sting) thanks to some styling tips from gorgeous blogger/designer Stacy Lomman of taffetadarlings. In fact, I wore the coat two ways in one day. For our friends’ anniversary party at…
Outfit Post: Malaysians Bring the Par-Tay
Warning: If Oscar-winning actor Jamie Foxx and the prime minister of Malaysia are dancing on stage together, move aside quickly. Ladies in pink head scarves will cut a bitch who gets in the way of their picture-taking. I learned this the hard way on Friday at a dinner at The St. Regis hotel in honor…
Outfit Post: All Clogged Up
I used to say, “Never say never” when it comes to fashion, but I’m taking it to the next level and declaring, “Never is the next new thing.” I’m convinced that the styles that are most hated at first — the ones that make people say, “Never!” — are the ones that are most loved…
What Wendy Wore: Hogan’s Heroes
There are bloggers who are passionate about wardrobe remixing — in other words, styling the same clothes different ways to get many looks. Then there’s me. I wore this ensemble twice last weekend, just changing the black t-shirt. Now that I think of it, I wore the same jacket-shoe-bag-necklace combo with the black version of…
Outfit Post: Trudie Styler’s Zac Posen Gown
MrB and I went to the annual awards dinner for the Citizens Committee for New York City last night. Our dear friend Barbaralee Diamonstein-Spielvogel received a lifetime achievement award for her contributions to the arts. Former New York governor Mario Cuomo introduced Barbaralee, but MrB wouldn’t let me take a picture of him. MrB wouldn’t…
