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…

WendyB Does Interviews

February 1, 2008 by WendyB

In the movie Working Girl, Tess (Melanie Griffith) says, “I have a head for business and a bod for sin. Is there anything wrong with that?” No, there isn’t. Unfortunately, I don’t have those qualities. As this video will prove, I have a face for radio and a voice for silent movies. You need to…

Nomi Malone Loves Versace Too

February 1, 2008 by WendyB

Some fashionistas assume Versace always looks like the purple dress below, complete with scary, too-tan makeup. No, there was no time to start over. I had to go out with an orange face and white arms. Shit happens! Get over it. Sometimes peeps have armgina, sometimes they have bad makeup. Orange you glad to see…

Mizrahi, Oldham, Roth, Magic and Loony

January 30, 2008 by WendyB

Back in the ’90s, young designers Isaac Mizrahi, Todd Oldham and Christian Francis Roth were fashion stars. They were awesome. They didn’t make enough money to stay in business, but they were awesome. I last wrote about these designing men in September, when Oldham was named creative director for Old Navy. Earlier this month, Mizrahi…

Buh-Bye, Louboutin. Hello, lolShoes.

January 29, 2008 by WendyB

I ordered these Louboutins back in July, I think. Whenever they first appeared on Net-a-Porter. Imagine my surprise when they arrived yesterday! Of course, they don’t fit. Now I have to send them back. It’s easier to take the One Ring back to Mount Doom than it is to return something to Net-a-Porter. Wish me…

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…
