Dr. Melfi, I Presume? Plus iHog New York.

April 26, 2008 by WendyB

When I learned that Lorraine Bracco, beauteous star of one of my favorite movies AND one of my favorite TV shows, was having a tasting of her own line of wines, Fernando and I jumped in a cab and went to Sherry-Lehman. Lorraine Bracco poured me some Chianti with her very own hands and kindly…

Speaking of Shelly Duvall*

April 26, 2008 by WendyB

I loved the hairstyle on the woman towards the center of this photo. Seen on Fifth Avenue earlier this week. It reminded me of Shelly Duvall’s Olive Oyl hairstyle in Popeye. If you want to look like Shelly/Olive but don’t have the hair for it, you can buy some of Shelly’s movie costumes here. Olive…

iHog Gets a Haircut (Vicariously)

April 25, 2008 by WendyB

Fernando came with me to see hairstylist-to-the-stars Keith Carpenter. Having a pig around made us silly. Voila! An even shaggier ‘do. Does it remind you of Shelly Duvall‘s? Just a bit? Keith kept telling me to stop laughing. Do these Versace pants match the lamp growing out of my head? We went to dinner at…

Does Daddy Likey? Plus, Serious Stuff.

April 25, 2008 by WendyB

Does this Antik Batik dress qualify me for the Don’t Show-Cha Your Chocha feature, Winona? Hello! Goodbye! I wore this to a dinner for the Overseas Press Club Awards last night, where I had the pleasure of bumping into glamorous author Tracy Quan. Tracy and her friend Keith. MrB gave the keynote speech with Fernando…

The Blair Pig Project and the BBD

April 24, 2008 by WendyB

Instead of flying back to New York from Paris on Monday, we stopped in Washington, DC, for the annual dinner of the Atlantic Council. Fernando was hoping to see a monument or two, but sightseeing was canceled after Air France temporarily misplaced the luggage, leading to all sorts of logistical problems.We still made it to…

An American Pig in Paris

April 24, 2008 by WendyB

A few more Paris photos from Fernando von Bakonstein. It was spring… We took some family snapshots… Chillaxed at the hotel… and rode the Metro. “Those Marc Jacobs shoes are fugly,” thought Fernando, “but they do complement my complexion.” Alessandra says that the French are gaga for Castaner espadrilles. The luggage-misplacing surrender monkeys at Air…

Back in New York

April 22, 2008 by WendyB

I swear to God, this is a picture of Fernando von Bakonstein (pinkish blotch in foreground) and Lauren Bacall (blurry lady in background) at a dinner for the Tribeca Film Festival. I don’t know when I’ve ever seen so many famous people in one place! In addition to Bacall, I ogled Jerry Seinfeld, Larry David,…

Hello, Lovahs

April 22, 2008 by WendyB

The helpful and kinktastic Asudem Latex of Doll’s Realm has fed my latex love with a link to a site (NSFW) filled with the real thing — none of that fake American Apparel stuff for Asudem, thank you very much! She particularly wanted to point out the classic tights, now on sale, but I’ve become…
