Eyes on the Prizes

December 8, 2008 by WendyB

My peeps, take a moment to visit Grant Miller Media and vote for me in the Drysdale Awards. What are the Drysdale Awards, you ask? Well, they’re like the Oscars for bloggers, meaning that the winners will accept their awards while wearing sweatpants and t-shirts with week-old tomato-sauce stains on them rather than gowns and…

Important Stuff. Also, Dresses.

November 25, 2008 by WendyB

MrB is the chairman of the most amazing organization called the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ). You have to click that link and do some reading, because I can’t begin to describe what people in other countries go through to tell the truth. It really offends me when U.S. citizens whine about how they’re suffering…

Trunk Show Thanks

November 19, 2008 by WendyB

Thank you to all my gorgeous customers and helpers* who made last night’s trunk show at Pink Elephant so wonderful. No thanks to T-Bags, the makers of a dress that I wore because I liked the colors, not realizing it made me look 10 months pregnant. I thought I only looked six months pregnant in…

Beautiful Bloggers and Baubles, Part II

November 14, 2008 by WendyB

I am unable to resist following up yesterday’s post with this exceptionally adorable self-portrait by Susanna of Jewel Box Dreams, who is modeling her new WendyB-designed Diana Ring. If cuteness were against the law, I’d have to make a citizen’s arrest!

Beautiful Bloggers Buying Baubles

November 13, 2008 by WendyB

When I wrote the title of this post, something about it seemed familiar. I finally realized I was thinking of a line in The Berenstains’ B Book: “beautiful baboon blowing bubbles.” Please note that that is NOT a comment on the appearance of any of my gorgeous blogging clients. However, it might be a sign…

Patrick Kelly Has Landed

October 22, 2008 by WendyB

I want to get more emails like the one I recently got from gorgeous client Melissa. She was so enthused about the leopard-spotted Patrick Kelly dress I posted about that she sniped it from eBay. Here’s Melissa showing off her new acquisition and looking mighty fierce. Melissa Leopard is lucky for me. Previously, I inspired…

Word to the Wise

September 9, 2008 by WendyB

Advice: If your friend is a jewelry designer (and you’d like some jewelry), tell her about your birthday the day before, NOT the day after. Happy belated birthday, Melissa! (Now, bid again!) Last night, I stopped by Melissa’s for dinner and a jewelry fashion show. Melissa was looking completely sex-ay in the cutest jeans evah….

This Has Grrrrr-own on Me

September 8, 2008 by WendyB

I’ve gone from being amused by this kitschy Maison Martin Margiela bag to craving it. The style of my bad-ass blonde friend from 1983 must be influencing me, because you know she would have loved this bag. She probably would have hung a feathered roach clip from it. Unfortunately, a wolf bag is not something…

Melissa Goes Gamine

September 7, 2008 by WendyB

When my gorgeous client Melissa told me she had gotten a pixie haircut, I insisted she take a photo. Click to enlarge.Check out Melissa’s previous hairstyle here. I was thrilled by how glamorous she looks. Those big shades are just right with that cut. And I had to agree with her comment, “I think my…
