Tonight, MrB and I went to the Tribeca Film Festival cocktail party where I debuted my Patrick Kelly leopard-print dress<\/a> to\u00a0great acclaim<\/a> back in 2008. There was no way to top that sartorial experience, so I wore a\u00a0less-controversial flapper dress that I last wore in 2009<\/a>. To be a little crazy, I skipped my usual red lipstick and went for major eye makeup instead.<\/p>\n

\"\"Makeup:<\/strong> By Tennille Nielsen of Kimara Ahnert<\/a><\/em>
\nLipcolor:<\/strong> Plumped Up gloss in Twilight from Kimara Ahnert
\nJacket<\/strong>: Zang Toi <\/em><\/p>\n

Superstylist Julie Matos wasn’t available to beautify my hair, so I just left it a little wavy. I didn’t like the combo of wavy hair and neutral lipstick at all. It didn’t feel like me. Wavy hair + red lips = WendyB. Straight hair + neutral lips = WendyB. Wavy hair + neutral lips = Real Housewife.<\/p>\n

\"\"What Wendy Wore While Feeling Like She Was a Real Housewife of Beverly Hills<\/a><\/strong>
\nDress:<\/strong> Vintage (purchased 2007<\/a>)<\/em>
\nShoes<\/strong>: Plein Sud (pre-2003; last seen at same event in 2010<\/a>) <\/em>
\nPurse:<\/strong> Whiting & Davis<\/em>
\nRing<\/strong>: My own Empress Wu design<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

On the plus side, we bumped into our gorgeous friends Norm and Jane and had an impromptu dinner with them at David Burke Kitchen<\/a>. I highly recommend the salmon ham and eggs!<\/p>\n

UPDATED TO ADD: MrB and I were wondering about an identical pair of ladies dressed like refugees from the ’80s that night. Questions answered<\/a>! <\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
