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.
Papa John’s, the “Lady Chinky Eyes” Receipt, Stupid Comments
A gorgeous lady named Minhee, who works at MrB’s company here in New York, went to a Papa John’s pizza restaurant last night. Today, she glanced at the receipt and noticed that it called her “lady chinky eyes.” So she did what you do with such things these days. She tweeted it. The Huffington Post…
Mobbed Up
For weeks, I’ve been hyp-mo-tized by the New Year’s Eve-themed promo for the second season of the reality show Mob Wives. Ads for the various wives-themed reality shows usually show scenes from an episode, followed by the female stars striking poses in jewel-tone dresses. I was fascinated by the way this ad had the mob…
Jewels of the Month for 2011
I’m going to continue the lazy-ass theme from Tuesday and belatedly do another 2011 wrap-up post. (Actually, I’m working on something for the Huffington Post, so I’m not being 100% lazy.) Here’s a look back at my Jewels of the Month for 2011. I started off last year with a black-diamond Cleves swan ring in…
I’m a Fashion Group International Rising Star Finalist!
I’m thrilled to be a finalist for Fashion Group International‘s Rising Star Award in the fine jewelry category for the second year in a row. The finalists were announced yesterday in Women’s Wear Daily. Here is a scan of the article. Did you see that gorgeous blogger/designer Stacy Lomman is a finalist in the women’s…
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….
Tiny Supermodel Cat
Before I got dressed for New Year’s Eve, I killed a little time checking out Burberry trench coats online. When I got tired of that, I decided to look in on my stepson’s new kitten, Portia. She’s confined to his bedroom (till they depart for Chicago later today) because she’s only two months old and…
