My Best Dressed at the 2016 MTV Movie Awards Is …

April 11, 2016 by WendyB

Frankly, my dears, the MTV Movie Awards show didn’t generate fashion worthy of one of my prestigious Best Dressed/Wear What You Want combo awards. However, I do want to give a tip of the hat to model/actress Cara Delevingne for her black-and-sheer, slim-cut jumpsuit by Balmain, which she wore with black heels. Embed from Getty…

Vintage Moschino That Could Free the Nipple

April 6, 2016 by WendyB

Once again, I missed something great on 1stdibs.com. Check out this topless jacket by Moschino! If I had this, I’d wear my 2010 Lady Gaga concert t-shirt under it. This reminds me that I’ve been meaning to make some platinum nipple jewelry. Note to self! UPDATED TO ADD: I can’t BELIEVE I wrote about this…

Musical Interlude: Andra Day and Rihanna

March 30, 2016 by WendyB

I’d heard of singer Andra Day before, but I didn’t truly HEAR her until she performed with Ellie Goulding at the Grammy Awards last month. While she was still on the Grammy stage, I was checking for tour dates and I had my tickets for her March 25 show at Webster Hall by the time…

Who Is Your Fashion Audience?

March 29, 2016 by WendyB

Some people say that women dress to impress straight men. (Not a good idea, as I’ve pointed out before.) A lot of women say they dress for themselves. I can’t believe it took a meme to capture my target audience. This includes jewelry of course! #Repost @feminiiism ・・・ MEEE #Feminism A photo posted by Wendy…

The Best Easter Egg Evah, Plus the Week in Review

March 27, 2016 by WendyB

Admittedly, I’m biased, but I think I have the best Easter egg evah (apologies to Faberge and the Russian royal family, but mine is wearable). My egg locket is made out of 18K yellow gold and it has a surprise inside. Look at the silver hen with her diamond eye! But why stop with one…

What Wendy Wore: Zang Toi and a Big Day for Ears

March 16, 2016 by WendyB

My designing friend Zang Toi showed his fall 2016 collection on February 13 and I’m just now getting around to writing about it!
