Three of the pieces from my previous 50% off Mother’s Day sale post are still available. Click here for more information on my tourmalinated quartz, owl and bat necklaces. I’m adding my silver Teeny Genie pendant to the sale. It’s normally $60, but through Sunday it will be $45. Click the photo to purchase on…
Fashion Bloggers in Neon and Pastel on Huffington Post

Twenty fashion bloggers graciously contributed their photos to a slideshow, so please go there and leave those wimmins some comments. CLICK HERE TO READ THE STORY. I had hoped to publish this story last month, but, as you’ll…
Early ’90s Fashion Flashback
I’ve been looking through some photos from the 1990s for another post I’m doing and marveling at how bad the fashion was. People criticize ’80s style, but I swear the ’90s have that decade beat in the fugly department. Oh my God! The t-shirts under spaghetti-strap dresses and clunky shoes! I was surprised at how…
Beyonce Wins the 2012 Met Gala
My invitation to the Costume Institute Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art must have gotten lost in the mail — AGAIN! — and, as a result, I’m sitting at home tonight in the XXL “I Heart New York” t-shirt that I bought at JFK one fiendishly hot July day when my plane was delayed…
Nuthin’ But a “G” Ring
Today is “Visible Monday” over at Not Dead Yet Style. Gorgeous 50-something blogger Patti Gibbons — who blogs about “how to look authentic and beautiful in our middle years” — is the hostess with the mostest. If you’re a fashion blogger over 40, visit Not Dead Yet Style today to post, in Patti’s words, “an…
A Goat for Beastie Boy MCA, aka Adam Yauch
I’ve been listening to a lot of Beastie Boys music since the rap trio was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on April 14. I had a sinking feeling when the Beasties’ MCA, aka Adam Yauch, skipped the event for health reasons. Unfortunately, Yauch died today at age 47. Yauch first announced…
OMG! Tennille Is So Kinky!
I love this photo of my gorgeous body-painted friend, makeup artist/model Tennille Nielsen, rocking my OMG rings at crotch level. In case you don’t remember the rings from my recent Topshop post, here’s a closeup of them. I’ll share more pictures from Tennille’s shoot later. By the way, Tennille is my go-to girl for makeup…
Update on Topshop’s Version of My Swear Rings
I’m quote-happy today! One of MrB’s favorite quotes is, “It’s easier to ask for forgiveness than it is to get permission.” That one is attributed to the late U.S. Navy Rear Admiral Grace Hopper. Many of my jewelry designs are inspired by extraordinary women and I’m going to have to do a tribute to Hopper…
What Wendy Wore: Watanabe Jacket, Stacy Lomman Vest
Last night, MrB and I went to an event hosted by The Weinstein Company, so I was inspired to wear the same Junya Watanabe jacket I wore to a Weinstein event in February. I am the anti-wardrobe-remixer. I got this jacket at Bergdorf Goodman. I was very excited to see it on Bergdorf’s homepage recently….
I’m SMH at Topshop’s Version of My Swear Rings
The sterling-silver swear-ring set from my WENDYB by Wendy Brandes line has been one of my most popular designs since I introduced it at a designer friend’s runway show in 2008. Word and letter jewelry has been around for ages, and I’m not the first designer to do “Fuck” jewelry. I’ve said myself that there’s nothing…
