BH: What fall trend will find its way into your closet?
MB: If I told you I was even aware of what the fall trends ARE, I’d be a liar. And I’m no liar, ladies! Truthfully, I am not really a trend-follower. In fact, if I am told by a magazine what I am SUPPOSED to wear? It makes me want to wear exactly the opposite. I think each woman needs to pick from the trends that serve her particular look and shape and spirit. Besides, it’s embarrassing to go to a party and see two women who obviously read the same article about how ____ is really IN right now. I think we’d all be better off dressing in what excites us as individuals. Like kids. Can you imagine if we all got to wear our Spider-Man costumes, how awesome that would be?
BH: Does the 99 Cent Whore shop anywhere else besides the 99 Cent store?
MB: BARNEYS. (She’s done very well for herself with her low rates.) Just kidding. She’s also been known to put together some real cute outfits from Wal-Mart, Costco, and even Rite Aid. (HUGE selection of flip-flops and tube tops!)
BH: Deputy Kimball?
MB: Army Navy store. Timberland. L.L. Bean.
BH: Any great jewelry finds?
MB: I recently was given a really big gift certificate for Erica Courtney (EricaCourtney.com), this amazing jewelry store in Beverly Hills, and I picked out the most expensive ring I ever had in my life—it was three digits!!! I lost it the first day I wore it. It’s gone. Poof. I think I better stick with thrift shops. And the 99 Cent store. P.S. I think the interviewer is super-cute and very elegantly dressed.
