What Wendy Wore: Double-Vintage Clovis Ruffin

November 19, 2018 by WendyB

I declare a garment to be “double vintage” when it’s vintage by nature and vintage in terms of how long I’ve owned it.  Here’s the double-vintage Clovis Ruffin dress I wore last week to The Acting Company’s fall gala, which honored my friends Barbaralee Diamonstein-Spielvogel and Carl Spielvogel. What Wendy Wore Dress: Clovis Ruffin (purchased…

The past week was all about the midterm elections.

What an Election Day!

November 7, 2018 by WendyB

Election-Day Video, Links, and Liuba

November 6, 2018 by WendyB

Hallelujah! Election Day is here at last. I’m jealous of all of you who have voted already.
