Madame Rose, Eva Peron … Kathie Lee Gifford? Yes, Kathie Lee, the preternaturally perky talk-show host, is, like those other ambitious ladies, the subject of her very own musical.

Posh in PVC

September 29, 2008 by WendyB

I’m in latex heaven! Victoria Beckham blew me away with these thigh-high, heel-less, shiny boots. I love her willingness to go to fashion extremes. I’d love her even more if she threw some Wendy Brandes jewelry into the mix!
