I hope you all had a good time ringing in the new year. I had my traditional New Year’s/belated birthday celebration at Balthazar (check out a decade of New Year’s fashions here).  I finally wore the Zang Toi dress that I first ogled in Zang’s September 2009 show.  It’s a spring dress so I added…

What the Bride Wore: Sequins and a Big Smile

December 14, 2010 by WendyB

Our friends Dick and Janice got married Sunday in a lovely ceremony. They read Rumi and Shakespeare to each other, causing me to jab MrB in his side and hiss, “You didn’t read any poetry to me.” Janice looked so glamorous. I was amazed to learn she was wearing J. Crew from head to toe: a…

Now that Sebastian has joined us, I spend a lot of time sitting on the floor playing, so casual…
