Third Place Is as Good as Winning

January 15, 2009 by WendyB

My peeps, I didn’t win, but I am feeling very good about coming in third in the Best Fashion Blog category in the 2008 Weblog Awards (I guess it’s as official as it’s going to be at this point). I am just a little personal blog, while the winner and the runner-up are big, high-traffic…

Saks on Sale

January 14, 2009 by WendyB

Saks is still having its crazy sale. If you buy something, they might also throw in some store fixtures and a few sales associates. The website is pretty picked over but if you want to do your own take on the WendyB/Gwen Stefani striped, one-sleeved look, you could check out this black and silver dress…

Gorgeous Bloggers Wear WendyB

January 13, 2009 by WendyB

I’m pretty worn out from my intense campaign for Best Fashion Blog. Dang! I’m a weakling. Meanwhile, Obama endured an endless presidential campaign, only to jump immediately into one of the hardest jobs in the world. (The No. 1 hardest job belongs to the person who has to do the body makeup for Marc Jacobs’s…

Voting and Tweeting

January 12, 2009 by WendyB

This is your last day to vote for me as Best Fashion Blog of 2008. I would be delighted to come in third, but if you happen to have the 10,000 friends required to help me take the lead, you should send that mass email immediately. Polls close at 5 PM ET. That means you…

Asked and Answered Again

January 12, 2009 by WendyB

Don’t forget to keep voting for me for Best Fashion Blogger of 2008! I won’t be able to miraculously generate thousands of votes in a couple of hours (hmmm) but I’d like to still have a strong showing. In my second campaign speech, I offered to answer any questions you had. I answered the first…

Great Minds Think Alike … About L.A.M.B.

January 12, 2009 by WendyB

Earlier this year, I ogled a L.A.M.B. dress on the soon-to-be-defunct eLuxury. I didn’t plan to get it, but when it was reduced further I couldn’t resist. More recently, I was rummaging through my gorgeous client Melissa‘s closet (she was rummaging with me — I didn’t break into her house) and I found she had…

The Next Editor of Vogue?

January 11, 2009 by WendyB

The editors at the glossy fashion magazines have had a hard time deciding how to approach the economic downturn. There have been some forced-sounding articles on shopping at Target and “in your closet.” It’s time to bring in Ice-T. My main pimp, looking stylish in a $100 suit, sounded off to New York Magazine about…

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

January 10, 2009 by WendyB

I had a great time last night thanks to my gorgeous friend Jen, who invited me to her family’s annual outing to Carnegie Hall to see “1964…The Tribute,” an unbelievably realistic-sounding Beatles tribute band. If you closed your eyes, you’d think it was the real thing. And, if you opened your eyes (which I’d recommend…

Linda’s Got a Brand New Bag

January 10, 2009 by WendyB

Elle.com reports that architect-artist dude Ron Arad and Notify artistic director Maurice Ohayon joined together to create a space-age handbag for my favorite model, LindaE. Embed from Getty Images The bag doesn’t interest me nearly as much as the “four-hand” factoid from the story: “What happens when supermodel Linda Evangelista—who at her height in the…

Great Minds Think Alike … About Flowers

January 9, 2009 by WendyB

Gorgeous blogger Fabulous Girl and I met up for drinks at Butter on Thursday so she could show me a diamond ring that needs repair. However, I became distracted by a J. Crew ring she was wearing. After I commented on it (“Oh my God!”) two or three times, she asked me if I wanted…
