Earlier this month, Lindsay Lohan — the once-promising actress and former customer of mine who is now best known as a death-pool perennial — avoided a stint in jail by agreeing to spend 90 days in rehab. When the news came out, I immediately thought of singers Tristan Prettyman and Anya Marina, who have a…

What Wendy Wore: Dolce & Gabbana and Rihanna’s Necklace
I sure do love leopard print, and one of my major fashion regrets is that I missed out on a two-toned leopard-print dress by Dolce & Gabbana in 2010. After I saw this bit of perfection on Rihanna I searched for it everywhere but to no avail. It was sold out in my size. I’m…
Sainte-Chapelle-Inspired Nail Art by Tracylee Percival
Since last summer, I’ve been very open-minded to the beauty and fashion suggestions from all the experts in my life. I figure I trust their taste and I work in a creative industry, so why not go a little wild? Shave a lock of hair off? Count me in. Frizzy ’70s curls and pink eyeshadow?…
The Rihanna Plane Has Landed
All good things must come to an end, and so it goes for the entertaining Twitter hashtag #rihannaplane. For her 777 tour — seven concerts in seven cities in seven countries in seven days to promote her seventh album, Unapologetic — Rihanna took a planeload of journalists along. The journalists kinda lost their minds (and…

Rihanna Likes Nipples
I’m happy to see Rihanna is still enjoying her boobacious Mud Flap Jill necklace from my WENDYB by Wendy Brandes collection. She was wearing it again in London on Wednesday, after being seen with it on in Las Vegas the previous week. Rihanna’s shapely-lady necklace is 18K yellow gold with ruby nipples. A silver version…
Yes, That’s My Mud Flap Jill Necklace on Rihanna!
I’m blowing kisses at Adeline of ShontelleDaily.com, who, after my post yesterday, found photos on Rihanna-Diva.com that prove Rihanna was wearing my Mud Flap Jill necklace at the iHeartMusic festival in Las Vegas. The necklace can be seen clearly in this photo when you enlarge it … … and there’s another photo here. But the…
Let’s All Stare at Rihanna’s Chest
I couldn’t sleep last night so I was surfing around teh Internets and came across some new photos of Rihanna. I noticed that she was wearing a couple of little necklaces, although they were barely visible in the photos. I thought, “I wish she were wearing one of my necklaces.” Then I said aloud: “WAIT!…
What Shontelle Wore at NYFW: Wendy Brandes Jewelry
Gorgeous Barbados-born singer/songwriter Shontelle — Rihanna’s childhood friend — has been out and about during New York Fashion Week, and she’s been wearing my jewelry! You know Shontelle: Her song “Impossible” was a big hit in 2010. Shontelle has been spending quality time with one of my favorite rings: the onyx skull with tsavorite (green…
MTV VMA Fashion: Short Hair Don’t Care
I was digging the short hairdos at MTV’s Video Music Awards last night. Of course, Pink has been a devotee of short hair for years. But she had more company than usual at the VMAs. Miley Cyrus went short last month, and her hair looked great glammed up for the event. I’ve adored many of…
