Boob Bow Redux at Luxx

December 10, 2007 by WendyB

Yep! The boob bow is the new hot thing. First it was the butt bow. Now it’s the boob bow. This boob bow was brought to you by Luxx Magazine, published by the Times of London, part of the Murdock/h MegaEmpire. Speaking of MegaEmpires, did I not tell you that Google was going to punish…

Boob Bowz? LOLZ!

December 3, 2007 by WendyB

My friend Jane suggested that since I successfully brought butt bows back, I should now tackle boob bows. Apparently, Anne Hathaway had a tough time with the boob bow sitch earlier this year. Jane has a now-dormant blog called Boycott the Bag. It had many smart and funny ideas in it, but let’s face it….

My Best Dressed at the 2020 Golden Globes Is …

January 6, 2020 by WendyB

A confession: The title of this post is misleading, because I am not interested in what most people consider “best dressed” at a celebrity-heavy event such as last night’s Golden Globes. Years ago, I decided the world needed a Best Dressed/Wear What You Want combo award, which I bestow upon an attendee who dares to…

My Best Dressed at the 2022 Grammys Is …

April 4, 2022 by WendyB

It seemed like the producers of the Grammys show learned something from the debacle at the Oscars a week earlier. In contrast to that train wreck, the show was generally upbeat and smooth, and the In Memoriam section struck the right tone. Ukrainian president Zelenskyy addressed the viewers in a pre-recorded segment, after being rejected…

My Best Dressed at the 2021 Grammys Is …

March 15, 2021 by WendyB

The winner of my Best Dressed/Wear What You Want award for the 2020 Grammys is Billy Porter and his fabulous mechanical hat! Yeah, I said 2020. I know the 2021 Grammys ceremony was on last night, and I’ll get to that eventually, but I’m a wee bit behind! There was a lot going on when…

My Best Dressed at the SAG Awards Is …

January 28, 2019 by WendyB

The red carpet was good at last night’s Screen Actors Guild Awards. How good? Lady Gaga was merely the first runner-up for my prestigious Best Dressed/Where What You Want combo award, rather than the winner. That said, I 100% loved Gaga’s white Christian Dior couture gown. (Are those tiny, lacy shorts peeking out from the…

My Best Dressed at the 2018 Oscars Is …

March 5, 2018 by WendyB

Last night’s Academy Awards — the 90th such ceremony but the first of the #TimesUp, post-Harvey Weinstein era —  had its highs and lows, both off the red carpet and on it. And there’s no getting to the red carpet without dealing with everything else first. On the bright side, Jordan Peele was nominated for…

My Oscar Gown Archives, Part II

March 4, 2018 by WendyB

To celebrate tonight’s Academy Awards — and console myself for not being there this year — I’m reminiscing about my personal Oscar fashion archive. Picking up where I left off in Part I, Part II begins in 2006. Beauty-wise, I skipped the faux-ny tail again and, thankfully, opted for straight hair. I had enough going…

Throwback Thursday: Press Freedom Awards

December 29, 2016 by WendyB

I always look forward to the International Press Freedom Awards dinner held by the Committee to Protect Journalists. The black-tie fundraiser — which has for years taken place the Tuesday before Thanksgiving at the Waldorf-Astoria — honors journalists from around the world who risk their lives to report from war zones and in defiance of…
