Knickers Are the Next New Thing

June 14, 2010 by WendyB

A gorgeous friend who is aware of my “Never is the next new thing™” fashion philosophy asked me last week what the next new thing would be. I said that I didn’t know because I didn’t see anything that would provoke the “I would NEVER wear that!” reaction that has predicted fashion trends including skinny…

My True Blood Party Style

June 13, 2010 by WendyB

Tonight I’m at gorgeous blogger Tina’s apartment to watch True Blood‘s season 3 premiere. My jewel for the evening is a luxe version of the silver Vampire Diana ring from Friday’s post. The silver ring has a silver heart and silver stake that was made all as one piece (fewer parts means lower labor costs)….

Jewels of the Month: Vamping It Up for True Blood

June 11, 2010 by WendyB

I couldn’t wait for True Blood’s third season to start this Sunday on HBO so I recently spent three days reading eight of the Charlaine Harris books that inspired the show. I downloaded them one at a time on a Kindle and, by the end of the three days, my credit card company was calling…

Sad News

June 8, 2010 by WendyB

A few people have been asking me, so I must sadly confirm that blogger Sister Wolf’s oldest son Max passed away on Sunday. Her brief statement is here.  Those of you who have been following her blog closely know that he endured many surgeries after an accident last year. Some of her posts about that…

What Wendy Wore: California Three-Peat

June 7, 2010 by WendyB

While I was packing for last week’s trip to Los Angeles, I remembered that I had unintentionally worn the same outfit and posed in the exact same location on L.A. visits in March 2008 and December 2008. This called for a three-peat, so I packed my Black Halo top, black Acne jeans, 16-year-old Karl Lagerfeld…

Greetings From Los Angeles

June 6, 2010 by WendyB

I’ve been in California for a very quick visit. Luckily, I squeezed in a dinner with some of my West Coast blogger bitches. This picture was taken outside Malo in Silver Lake. It’s hard to see, but everyone is wearing a pair of my silver Cleopatra earrings except for me. I’m wearing the gold Cleopatra…

Sex and the International Cities

June 4, 2010 by WendyB

I love that gorgeous bloggers around the world are taking pictures of Samantha (Kim Cattrall) wearing my Cleopatra earrings on screen during Sex and the City 2! That said, I discourage you from doing this without permission because people are very uptight about movie piracy. If someone thinks you’re recording the whole movie,  your ass…

On the Town: Ting Tings & Richard Prince T-Shirts

June 3, 2010 by WendyB

I’ve been so busy with Sex and the City 2 that I didn’t get to share some pictures from a great Ting Tings concert a couple of weeks ago. The show was part of a series of free concerts sponsored by Microsoft’s new line of KIN “social phones.” “Social phones” sound to me like phones…

Gorgeous Clients Looking Gorgeous

June 1, 2010 by WendyB

My post about Sex and the City 2 was such an epic endeavor that I’m too exhausted to write much. Luckily, I have beautiful client photos to share. Gorgeous client/blogger Jill from Stella’s Roar sent this photo of herself lounging poolside in her just-arrived-by-mail silver Cleopatra earrings. You’ve met Jill on this blog before because…
