Just David Letterman, Retiring.
I’m very sad about David Letterman retiring! Even when it comes to television hosts, I’m like Stewie on Family Guy. Dave was so different and shocking when he first got on the air. The parents kept watching Johnny Carson on The Tonight Show and the kids all switched to Letterman. People forget how revolutionary Letterman…
Throwback Thursday: Wearing Vintage in Dublin in 1997
I recently dug up this photo of me in Dublin in September or October 1997. I’m wearing a vintage Lillie Rubin coat that I got at Allan & Suzi on the Upper West Side. Check out the red-jacket-wearing photobomber in this one, staring at me as if he’d never seen a woman in a great…
Jewel of the Month: Bull and Bullfighter “Maneater” Ring
According to the zodiac calendar, Taurus birthdays begin on April 20, making this the perfect month for the official blog debut of my Bull and Bullfighter Maneater ring. Actress Leven Rambin already tweeted a photo of the ring from Elton John’s Oscar party last month. Leven had borrowed it from gorgeous singer/songwriter Skylar Grey, who…
No Fooling! I Have Emoji Rings Now.
In the beginning, there were emoji earrings … and earrings that should be emojis. Then there were customers who didn’t have pierced ears and needed their emojis in necklace form. Now, thanks to a request from gorgeous customer Cara, there are emoji rings. Cara asked for two: the peace sign … … and the ever-popular…
Noah, MrB, and the Weather
It rained all weekend in New York City. During the deluge on Saturday, we were inspired to see the movie Noah, starring Russell Crowe. I’m still recovering from that. I don’t know if I liked the movie or hated it. It was … an experience. I supposed my best description is Game of Thrones/original Star…
The Week in Review
In case you missed it, I wrote a Huffington Post story on the independent cosmetics companies that are producing all kinds of fun lipstick colors, including green, blue and black. You can read it here. And here’s what I published on my blog this week: Monday: My Marie Antoinette earrings are in Inside Weddings’ spring…
What Wendy Wore: Lady Gaga Concert at Roseland
Yesterday was Lady Gaga’s 28th birthday, and my designing friend Stacy Lomman and I celebrated by going to the first of seven Gaga concerts at Roseland Ballroom. Gaga’s shows are Roseland’s swan song: The venue, which has been on West 52nd Street since 1958, will be razed and replaced with a residential tower. Roseland has…
Throwback Thursday: Floral Shirt From the ’80s in London
I wrote about this 1980s floral shirt when I wore it in 2010. Since then, it’s become my “hairstyling” shirt. As I mentioned yesterday, I own very few button-front shirts, so every time superstar hairstylist Julie Matos gives me one of her elaborate updos for a party or event, I wear this shirt so that…
Blue Lipstick #3 by Pretty Zombie Cosmetics
After mentioning in my last post that I needed to test my new Blue Moon liquid lipstick by Pretty Zombie Cosmetics, I couldn’t resist doing it immediately, so I wore it yesterday afternoon. The color is electrifying and goes on perfectly opaque. As I expected from a liquid lipstick, it feels very dry once it…
