Well, the outfit isn’t terrible … just the blurry photo is. It was too windy and cold out for a redo; I ran inside right after this. Whatever! If you want excellent jewelry, you’re on the right blog. If you want excellent outfit photography, go practically anywhere else. I have to pick my battles, and…

My Best Dressed at the Golden Globes: Piper Perabo
I’m giving my newly invented Best Dressed/Wear What You Want combo award for the Golden Globes red carpet to Piper Perabo. The oversize skirt made her sheer ballgown from Theyskens’ Theory Spring 2012 collection fit for a queen. Embed from Getty Images This is the kind of red-carpet dressing I like. Beautiful, risky and totally…
Join the Golden Girls Gang With a DVF Dress
Gorgeous food blogger and Golden Girls Gang OG Tina took time out from stalking moody rapper Joe Budden on Twitter to stalk gold dresses online. Okay, I’m the one who stalks Joe Budden but I like to pretend it’s Tina. Tina, however, really did alert me to this gold sequin Diane Von Furstenberg dress on…
On the Town: Seth MacFarlane, Common, Slaughterhouse
Due to holiday mayhem, I never blogged about the three nights I spent at Highline Ballroom last month, and I’ve got a picture you just have to see, so let’s catch up. The photo is not one of Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane. I’m a Family Guy fanatic, and when I read that MacFarlane would…
Vuitton Collaborates With Yayoi Kusama; WendyB Freaks Out
I fell in love with polka-dot-obsessed artist Yayoi Kusama after the New York Times ran a story about her in 2008. Today, Louis Vuitton confirmed Women’s Wear Daily’s November report that Vuitton’s artistic director, the often-naked Marc Jacobs, is collaborating with Kusama on products that include leather goods. They will be in stores in July…
Feeling Ruffled by 1st Dibs
Every so often, I browse the beautiful vintage clothes on 1st Dibs. I’m a little relieved that these two pieces are sold, because if they weren’t, I’d HAVE to have them. I guess I’ll settle for these for now.
What Wendy Wore in 2011
I’m not ready to get back to regular, non-holiday life. Also, I just realized that I didn’t do a “what I wore in 2011” wrap-up. So I’m going to fend off reality another day by doing that lazy-ass post. (Click the photos to go to the original posts.) Actually, we can make this exercise useful….
What Wendy Wore: Gold Sequins for New Year’s Eve 2012
The color gold was on my mind as I got ready for New Year’s Eve. Much to my delight, it was on other people’s minds too. MrB and I gave gorgeous blogger/designer Stacy Lomman a ride to our dinner at Indochine. When Stacy turned up at our apartment wearing gold sequins that matched mine, I…
Hope Your New Year’s Eve Is Golden
I know 2012 would be a golden age for me if I got my hands on this Burberry trench coat. Lately, I can’t stop ogling Burberry’s less-traditional trenches, and I just had to share this one. Have a happy new year!
“Silver to the Third Power” Manicure by Tracylee Percival
Celebrity manicurist Tracylee Percival and I always name the manicures she gives me, and this one is called “Silver to the Third Power.” Tracylee’s concept was silver on silver on silver. The bottom layer is a gunmetal Minx application. She covered that with clear, long-lasting nail gel, then sprinkled silver glitter on. Finally, she added…
