When I Want Your Opinion….

February 2, 2008 by WendyB

…I’ll beat it out of you. And it’s time for a beating. Do you bitches prefer pop-up comments or non-pop-up comments? I know Carol and ENC prefer pop-ups. How about the rest of you? Speaking of blogging peeps, quite a few have made my day by presenting me with the You Make My Day award….

WendyB Does Interviews

February 1, 2008 by WendyB

In the movie Working Girl, Tess (Melanie Griffith) says, “I have a head for business and a bod for sin. Is there anything wrong with that?” No, there isn’t. Unfortunately, I don’t have those qualities. As this video will prove, I have a face for radio and a voice for silent movies. You need to…

Nomi Malone Loves Versace Too

February 1, 2008 by WendyB

Some fashionistas assume Versace always looks like the purple dress below, complete with scary, too-tan makeup. No, there was no time to start over. I had to go out with an orange face and white arms. Shit happens! Get over it. Sometimes peeps have armgina, sometimes they have bad makeup. Orange you glad to see…

More Shenanigans

January 31, 2008 by WendyB

Here is more info on the “other” Wendy Brandes situation I was bemused by in this post. The following product photo has appeared on two forums: The text was the same in both cases: “Money Clothing released a ‘Waist of Money’ belt made of 3.3 pounds of 18 carat gold designed and made by Wendy…

What Is This?

January 31, 2008 by WendyB

Eek! Is there yet another Wendy Brandes prowling around? I assure you I have nothing to do with this. Separately, it’s Thursday, yet there’s no Thursday Book Club. I’ve decided I won’t do the book club every Thursday, just on occasional Thursdays. I’m reading a lot of books simultaneously, and I’d rather take my time…

Mizrahi, Oldham, Roth, Magic and Loony

January 30, 2008 by WendyB

Back in the ’90s, young designers Isaac Mizrahi, Todd Oldham and Christian Francis Roth were fashion stars. They were awesome. They didn’t make enough money to stay in business, but they were awesome. I last wrote about these designing men in September, when Oldham was named creative director for Old Navy. Earlier this month, Mizrahi…

Buh-Bye, Louboutin. Hello, lolShoes.

January 29, 2008 by WendyB

I ordered these Louboutins back in July, I think. Whenever they first appeared on Net-a-Porter. Imagine my surprise when they arrived yesterday! Of course, they don’t fit. Now I have to send them back. It’s easier to take the One Ring back to Mount Doom than it is to return something to Net-a-Porter. Wish me…

Unfrozen Caveman Blogger, Back on Display

January 29, 2008 by WendyB

“One hundred thousand years ago, a caveman was out hunting on the frozen wastes when he slipped and fell into a crevasse. In 1988, he was discovered by some scientists and thawed out. He then went to law school and became… Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer.” That was Saturday Night Live’s introduction for a series of skits…

Thursday Book Club: Empress Wu, Part II

January 17, 2008 by WendyB

Welcome back to the increasingly erratic Thursday Book Club! In my last real Book Club post, I discussed Empress Wu, the only woman in the history of China to be called “emperor” during her lifetime. Since then, I’ve done a couple of fake Book Club post about Christopher Walken’s ass and books I bought while…
