Thank you to the gorgeous friends and family members who came out to see Sex and the City 2 on its premiere night at New York’s fabulous Ziegfeld Theater. When our group cheered out loud at the appearance of my earrings on Kim Cattrall’s lobes, I nearly burst with happiness. If you look closely at…

Marc Jacobs Still Hates Me
I don’t know what I did to Marc Jacobs but he still hates me. He expresses this hatred with naked pictures, because he knows I don’t like to buy things from naked people. Here is Marc’s latest naked picture, courtesy of Fashion Indie. Marc hasn’t hated on me like this since August and December of…
Wishful Thinking Inspired by Polyvore
While checking out the latest entries in my Polyvore contest, I started wishing I could do a little shopping. Polyvore’s goals achieved! Unfortunately, the suede and tulle Fendi shoe that was at the top of my list is sold out. There’s another tulle style on Bluefly but it’s not doing it for me. This ruffled…
What Wendy Wore: Encounters With Bad Samaritans
MrB and I went to a dinner celebrating our gorgeous friend Joanna’s @&#th birthday last Thursday. That’s what the menu said: “@&#th Birthday Bash.” Unfortunately, I wasn’t wearing my swear rings to match the menu. Instead, I wore a vintage Ossie Clark maxi that I bought last year from Vintage-a-Peel and the Cleopatra necklace that…

Non-Outfit Post: White Leather Jacket
I meant to take an outfit photo yesterday while I was wearing my 1990s white leather peacoat, but it didn’t happen. Instead, let’s all admire this 1980s white leather jacket by Chrome Hearts that I saw on 1stdibs.com. When I was in high school in the ’80s, denim jackets with band logos painted on the…
“Things Are Easy When You’re Big in Japan”
I’ve got the 1984 song “Big in Japan” by Alphaville stuck in my head. Before it was a song, “big in Japan” was a mocking description of rock bands that weren’t successful at home in the U.S. or U.K., but were popular in Japan. The Japanese fans were considered a poor consolation prize. Personally, I’d…
Minx Manicure #6: Silver Houndstooth
I had a lot of special events to go to last week … and that’s all the excuse I needed to get another Minx manicure. For those of you who haven’t seen Minx before, it’s a film that’s applied with heat to the nails for a completely opaque look. The metallic options are my favorite…
The War of the Roses: Moncler vs. H&M
While I was reading the May issue of W, a fluffy Moncler Gamme Rouge jacket caught my eye. It reminded me of a rosette jacket from H&M’s recent Garden Collection. Leaving price out of it, which jacket do you prefer? [polldaddy poll=3108688]
