More Latex Lovers

August 22, 2007 by WendyB

While I’m mentioning other blogs, I wanted to comment on the continued growth of the latex look. I can’t wait to see Agathe wear her latex dress on Style Bytes. Jennine at The Coveted went for the American Apparel leggings. This young lady looked beautiful on The Sartorialist. I’m amused that I kept a pair…

Two Posts I Wish I Wrote

August 22, 2007 by WendyB

I am just back from San Francisco and need some time to work on my S.F. post, plus tomorrow’s book club post. So for now, let me refer you to these two great and incredibly well-researched posts. The first is Dorkas’s post on l’Inconnue de la Seine. The second is The Stiletto Effect’s post on…

Media Alert: The Coveted in the Chronicle

August 20, 2007 by WendyB

Jennine of The Coveted is quoted in the San Francisco Chronicle! Hmmm. I have to say I wish the reporter’s tone was a little nicer. Here’s the passage: “‘I will not be attending S.F. Fashion Week,’ begins a rant on www.thecoveted.blogspot.com, which was later picked up as a link on several other fashion blogs. ‘I…

Kawaii!!!!

August 17, 2007 by WendyB

Fashionably Cute is a webzine dedicated to all things kawaii. I discovered it when FC linked to MY link to b.lush, who borrowed it from her boyfriend. (Cute food is so viral!). The ice cream sandwich piggy is killing me!

Buy My Dress at Frock NYC

August 17, 2007 by WendyB

My favorite vintage store, Frock NYC, has relaunched its website! Check out the beautiful selections, including Ossie Clark, Thea Porter, Ungaro and Moschino. Not to mention my very own Versace Couture dress (see above), worn to the Oscars in 2003! And if you’re in NYC, you must stop by the store at 148 Orchard Street…

The Rules (for Ladies of a Certain Age)

August 16, 2007 by WendyB

Whose rules are better? Ellen Barkin’s or blogger Gala Darling’s? Gala’s by a long shot, I’d say.

Great Minds Think Alike…About Gladiator Sandals

August 16, 2007 by WendyB

Here (on the right) we have Ashley Olsen in Alaia sandals. Below, vintage Herbert Levine. (Levine photo via Enokiworld. Sorry, the Levines are sold.) Speaking of sandals, if you’re a size 37 (and act quickly), you can get the Gucci sandal pictured below at Bergdorf Goodman for $582, down from $895. But if you’re a…

Happy Birthday, Madonna

August 16, 2007 by WendyB

Madonna is 49 today, and I remember listening to her when she was 26. To be exact, I remember listening to her on vinyl, in the basement of my parents’ house, with my friend Brian whom I tutored in Spanish. I also remember going to her show at Radio City instead of my high school…

Zandra Rhodes

August 16, 2007 by WendyB

The New York Times style section has an article on British designer Zandra Rhodes. A year or two ago, some British friends took us to see Zandra’s Fashion and Textile Museum in South London. We had a tough time finding it and were rattling all over South London in a tiny car containing four adults…
