August 20, 2007 by WendyB

If you can still get the issue of OK! Magazine with Britney Spears and her assistant on the cover…look closely! I’m 99.9% sure that’s my Borgia ring on her finger. You know, lots of jewelers get their work on the red carpet. But how many get theirs photographed in a topless, Sapphic pool romp? It’s…

Media Alert: The Coveted in the Chronicle

August 20, 2007 by WendyB

Kawaii!!!!

August 17, 2007 by WendyB

Fashionably Cute is a webzine dedicated to all things kawaii. I discovered it when FC linked to MY link to b.lush, who borrowed it from her boyfriend. (Cute food is so viral!). The ice cream sandwich piggy is killing me!

The Rules (for Ladies of a Certain Age)

Great Minds Think Alike…About Gladiator Sandals

August 16, 2007 by WendyB

Here (on the right) we have Ashley Olsen in Alaia sandals. Below, vintage Herbert Levine. (Levine photo via Enokiworld. Sorry, the Levines are sold.) Speaking of sandals, if you’re a size 37 (and act quickly), you can get the Gucci sandal pictured below at Bergdorf Goodman for $582, down from $895. But if you’re a…
