Recently, I admired a 1973 photo of Liza Minnelli posted by gorgeous blogger Liz of Vintage-a-Peel. I’m equally impressed by Liza’s 1989 British Vogue cover, shared by The Very Simon G (with help from Fashionista Barbie). Silver leather fringe … the ’80s were so good!

Throwback Thursday: The Man, the Dog, and Liza
I’ve been away from this blog for 2 1/2 weeks — the longest I’ve gone without posting since I started on Blogger in July 2007. If you’ve visited me here at least a few times since November 2016, you can probably guess what I’ve been up to. I’ll get into the ultra-serious stuff in the…

Another Interesting Sighting in Los Angeles
I almost forgot to report that Sam Waterston wasn’t the only interesting person I spotted in my hotel in Los Angeles last week. The first night we were there, MrB and I went to get a drink at the bar. I was excited to see a large white dog snoozing on the floor by a…
What Wendy Wore: Black Halo Five-Peat

I would get out my candy-apple red Fender Strat exactly once a week when I trudged the ten blocks to see Ed, my good-natured guitar teacher. I kept this up until I left the corporate world and started working for…
Ossie Clark in Cabaret
Last night, I watched one of my favorite movies, Cabaret, for the first time in years. I was thrilled to realize that Liza Minnelli was wearing the blouse version of an Ossie Clark dress that I own.

Shopping My Closet for the Hot Emmys Color Combo
The hot color combination at the Emmys was pink and red, worn by, among others, Marisa Tomei. Embed from Getty Images People have said that I look like Marisa. What do you think?

What Wendy Tried: Oscar de la Renta on Oscar Weekend
I hadn’t visited Decades in Los Angeles — aka vintage-gown heaven — in forever, and I rectified that yesterday. I emailed fabulous sales associate Helena before I went in and told her I only wanted to see over-the-top designs. I believe this one was by Oscar de la Renta. I tried on a lot of…
