I’ve been looking for a pair of high-wedge sneakers for years. I tried on these sunny See by Chloe sneakers in 2009, but they didn’t fit. In 2010, I pondered this pair by Ash Shoes, but I wasn’t sure I loved them as much as the Chloes. I wound up with a pair of silver-sequin, [...]

My grandmother on my mother’s side is named Ruth. She’s 93 years old.

Last night, MrB and I went to an event hosted by The Weinstein Company, so I was inspired to wear the same Junya Watanabe jacket I wore to a Weinstein event in February. I am the anti-wardrobe-remixer. I got this jacket at Bergdorf Goodman. I was very excited to see it on Bergdorf’s homepage recently. [...]

MrB and I went to a dinner on Saturday. I was too tired from the excitement of getting FitzRoy on Friday to do much of a photo shoot. (This becoming a trend. I need to get more sleep.) This hallway snapshot is the best I could do. What Wendy Wore Dress: Stacy Lomman (2011. Last [...]

Once I find something I like, I stick with it. I wore this Stacy Lomman jacket and scarf combination nearly every day last week, including travel to and from Los Angeles. I just changed the black t-shirt regularly, and the shoes occasionally. What Wendy Wore Jacket: Stacy Lomman (2011) T-shirt: Splendid Scarf: Alexander McQueen (2010) [...]

This seems to be my month for dusting off dresses that have been hibernating in my closet for two years. On Saturday, I wore my gold-sequin Antik Batik dress — last worn in December 2009 — in Las Vegas. Then, on Monday, I wore the bow-covered vintage Patrick Kelly dress that I last wore out [...]

The peplum has made one of its periodic comebacks as a fashion trend. The look brings back fond memories of a structured black cotton jacket with a peplum that I wore in the early ’90s. I had a few tailored pieces by Teenflo for work back then and the jacket might have been one of [...]

A friend of mine had his 60th birthday party at the Copacabana last Friday. I thought it was the perfect occasion for a Versace dress that I haven’t worn since the premiere of the movie Along Came Polly in Los Angeles in 2004 (my film-editor stepdaughter worked on the movie). My dress picked up bad [...]

Right before Snakes on a Plane came out five years ago, a friend and I were so swayed by the pre-opening online hype that we bet MrB that the movie would be a mega-blockbuster. Well, it turned out that the hype was just hype. According to IMDB, the movie’s domestic gross barely topped the production [...]
