Leader of the Pack

June 11, 2009 by WendyB

I was amused by yesterday’s New York Times article about how round sunglasses are the hot look this summer. Here’s how it starts: “Was it only last year that round sunglasses were considered square? The hot eyewear look of 2008 was pretty much defined by plastic Wayfarer knockoffs, garish neon trapezoids often seen color-coordinated with…

I’m not really here today, I’m at my Francis blog. But I want to thank gorgeous blogger Belle de Ville of Beverly Hills Branchee for the fabulous post about the new blog (and for reminding me to add her to my blog roll). If any of you other gorgeous bloggers post about Francis, let me…

The One Where I Get a Hand Job

June 9, 2009 by WendyB

I had to have minor surgery on my left hand to remove a weird bump. The bump was near my middle finger, but the doctor says it should not affect my ability to flip people off. Things are not as bad as they appear. I wrote a few posts in advance so blogging won’t be…

Sunday Styles Strikes Again

June 9, 2009 by WendyB

You’d think that after this recent post, I would have stopped reading the non-fashion articles in the Sunday Styles section of the New York Times. I know I should avoid exposure to quotes from incredibly annoying people, but I still couldn’t resist last Sunday’s section. The latest irksome article, about abandoned blogs, was called Blogs…

Where’s the Beef?

June 7, 2009 by WendyB

I grew up with Heinz Ketchup commercials that used Carly Simon‘s song Anticipation to make the point that the ketchup was so thick and rich that it came out of the bottle very slowly. Times have changed. Last night, while out at dinner with my gorgeous friends Jen, Kevin, Alyssa, and Amanda, I became distracted…

This Post Is Not for the Sensitive

June 5, 2009 by WendyB

Last week, I went to see “Whole in the Wall,” an exhibit of graffiti art at the Helenbeck Gallery, accompanied by my designing friend, Christian Francis Roth, and my gorgeous, non-designer friend, Maggie Kneip. I wrote more about the show on my brand-new Francis blog today. [UPDATED TO ADD: That blog is now defunct.] As…

Balmain for Eight Crazy Nights

June 4, 2009 by WendyB

When I first glimpsed this studded Balmain tank top in Bergdorf Goodman, I thought it had a menorah on it. Furtive cell phone photo Now I can’t get this Adam Sandler song out of my head. That song is really very educational. I like that David Lee Roth is first on Sandler’s list of menorah-lighting…

What Really Grinds My Gears

June 2, 2009 by WendyB

I’ve mentioned my love for the animated series Family Guy before. On one episode, Peter Griffin gets his own segment on the local news called “What Really Grinds My Gears.” Take a look. The incest/period portion of that clip isn’t relevant to my post today. I don’t even have a brother, for God’s sake! You…
