Wearing My Heart on My Cape

March 5, 2009 by WendyB

As a proud New Yorker, I must, must, MUST have this cityscape cape by my wonderful designer friend Zang Toi.

Favorite Hair

March 4, 2009 by WendyB

I got my hair cut yesterday, but didn’t feel like taking a picture. Instead, I’ll show you my 1995 hair. Back then, my hair guru, Keith Carpenter (who also did my hair yesterday), and I decided I needed the curliest perm possible — a chemically-induced ‘fro. Keith’s colleague did the perm reluctantly while Keith and…

A Cautionary Tale

March 3, 2009 by WendyB

It looks like singers Rihanna and Chris Brown are back together, even though he ruined her Grammy night last month by giving her an ugly makeover with his fists. I’m hoping she’s trying to lure him into a false sense of security so she can get her revenge. I suggest she stash him in a…

Join My Fan Club

March 2, 2009 by WendyB

At the Independent Fashion Blogger meetup in New York last month, a gorgeous blogger nagged me to set up a Facebook fan page for my jewelry line. I think it might have been Vyque. If it wasn’t Vyque, I’m blaming her anyway. I reacted to this idea about as well as Dee from What’s Happening…

Meeting My Accountant Today

March 1, 2009 by WendyB

Got this song by the Kinks stuck in my head. “The tax man’s taken all my dough,And left me in my stately home,lazing on a sunny afternoon.”Speaking of ’60s bands, there’s a trailer out for America’s Lost Band, the documentary on the Remains. After watching it, I decided that the Remains had to be four…

Just Dicking Around

February 27, 2009 by WendyB

Comedian Roseanne Barr (as she formerly was known; now she is just “Roseanne“) had a great line: “People say I should be more feminine – well, they can suck my dick.” Here’s some more dick for you. Tricky Dick Dick in a can Dick in a box Dick Cheney on Family Guy Kathy “Knock the…

She Made Me Do It

February 26, 2009 by WendyB

A Proust Questionnaire, answered by a famous person, is always on the last page of Vanity Fair magazine. As Vanity Fair describes it, “The questionnaire has its origins in a parlor game popularized (though not devised) by Marcel Proust (1871 – 1922), the French essayist and novelist, who believed that, in answering these questions, an…

The Weather Gods Are Angry

February 25, 2009 by WendyB

I was wondering why it has been so windy and cold New York the past couple of days. It turns out that the weather gods are trying to blow Heather Mills home to England. This hasn’t done Heather’s new hairdo any favors. WHOOSH! Spring won’t come as long as Heather is here, so if you…
