An Exceptional Post

June 11, 2008 by WendyB

I normally don’t say too much about my family on this blog, because I like to stay focused on the important things in life, like Coco. But I must make an exception because two of my peeps have been really busy. My husband has been hard at work on his new blog. And my gorgeous…

Surprise!

June 10, 2008 by WendyB

I didn’t expect this, but my Marie Claire essay is now available online. I hope you peeps who bought the magazine won’t be demanding a refund. You did get an extra photo in the print version. Maybe that counts for something. I will give you two more photos here. When we did the shoot for…

Net-a-Porter has another sartorial option for anyone who wants to join my Golden Girls gang. (Be warned: you’ll have to be jumped in by these bitches.) Stella McCartney dress $2,595 on Net-a-Porter I’ve realized I need to give y’all an update on Net-a-Porter. I recently ordered — and returned — a few things, and the…

If you are a new reader who is visiting due to my Marie Claire story, you might be wondering what the hell is going on here. If you’re an old reader who joined me at some point since I started this blog last July, you might be wondering the same thing. A second photo from…

A Tribute to YSL’s Mondrian Tribute

June 7, 2008 by WendyB

One of the most memorable pieces designed by the late Yves Saint Laurent was his Mondrian dress. Photo from the Metropolitan Museum of Art Since the original isn’t too easy to come by, you can pay tribute in Diane Von Furstenberg’s Mondian dress. The red version is on sale at Bergdorf Goodman for $251, down…

Hello, Gorgeous!

June 7, 2008 by WendyB

Still love these shoes. They’ve gone on sale since I first noticed them in April. If you wear a 40 or a 41, you can buy them here. If you’re not the right size, you can console yourself with this hilarious post from Grant Miller. Speaking of shoes, I’ve been getting a lot of use…

WendyB in Marie Claire

June 6, 2008 by WendyB

I finally have seen my essay in the July issue of Marie Claire! First of all, I must thank my wonderful editor, Abby Pesta, for taking such good care of me. Secondly, I must call my dermatologist for Restylane and/or a face lift. I’m a little traumatized by the photos, especially since I haven’t seen…

Unite to Fight Content Thieves

June 6, 2008 by WendyB

Lately, I’ve been plagued by “blogs” that are picking up my content and presenting it as their own. In at least one case, the entire “blog” consisted of posts that were lifted from all of you fashion-blogging bitches. I recognized all the posts! That one was on WordPress. I reported it via this link and…

The News of the Day

June 5, 2008 by WendyB

I was really feeling the love for New York today thanks to a nauseating ride with a horn-honking, cursing cabbie who seemed to be belatedly auditioning for a role in Grand Theft Auto IV. In fact, the experience was so much like Grand Theft Auto that I decided to shoot my driver instead of paying…

Ossie on eBay

June 5, 2008 by WendyB

There’s an amazing Ossie Clark snakeskin coat on eBay. As you might recall, I have the jacket version. Unfortunately, the coat is part of a “live auction.” I’ve never bid in one of those on eBay because of all the extra charges. In this case, the “buyer’s premium” is 22.5%! Plus, I don’t like this…
