Never Is the Next New Thing

Voila!

Hold onto your hats! You’re about to see my rolled-up, baggy jeans at last. Here’s the outfit I wore to see Madonna at Madison Square Garden last night.

Acne “Generic Girl” jeans
Michael Stars t-shirt
Steve J & Yoni P hand-painted jacket
13-year-old Prada shoes

I am assuming the traditional fashion blogger pose by coyly looking down at my feet. Enough of this smiling-like-a-regular-person thing that I’ve been doing!

  2. oh my god, that jacket is amzing! rolled jeans too.. but i’m so dazzeled by the jacket…

  3. YEP the looking down is good..
    Less tooth bling 🙂
    Surprised M. didn’t grab that jacket thing off of you!?

  4. I love your smiling photos! And that jacket—I love the cut and structure. I think you look great here. My favorite bit is the mary janes with the rolled-up jeans. You’re a girl after my own heart—if I had either mary janes, or jeans I could roll up, I’d be doing that look.

  6. You look sooo amazing! You seriously make me like a pair of light colored jeans also which if you remember I said would never happen. Damn.

  7. I love the smile. It is your trademark. Keep smiling!!!! And, I absolutely love your 13-year-old Prada shoes.

  10. i’ve really never quite understood why so many bloggers assume that stance! the first time my boyfriend took a picture of me for Cupcakes and Cashmere, i looked down and put my hand in my hair and he asked, ‘um is everything ok?’ i love this look on you, btw. perfect for a Madonna concert!

  11. I think you’ve single-handedly changed my opinion on rolled up jeans. Love it!

    How was dear old Madge anyway?

  12. Love love LOVE! the outfit but O-M-G! a Madonna concert! What I wouldn’t give to go see a live Madonna concert….

    I promised myself next time she tours I would buy tickets, regardless of how long it takes me to pay them off! 🙂

    How was it? Did you have so much fun? What a performance that would be!

  15. Hi there-adore the outfit-AND I could enlarge the picture too, haha!! The jacket is stunning and I love the jeans. The ones I bought last week are a similiar colour, I think I will try roll ups with a heel. Totally fab pose-I must copy this too, haha!!

  16. I’ve come to the conclusion that the staring at the feet comes from a desire to make the post about the clothes and not about the person. Which is odd for personal style blogs, but who said the world made sense?

  17. Rad jacket! Hope you had fun at Madonna — I went to her show in Oakland about 7 years ago — one thing to check off my do-do before I die list!

  20. the jeans is fantastic, and the jacket as well. I really hope your night with Madonna was fantastic!

  21. You are a natural at this look. Not to be toyed with! BTW, have tagged you on my blog. Post will be up later today…

  26. What an amazing jacket – I love it!

    You look completely fantastic.

    PS. Thank you so much for the tag – i’ll do it soon!

  29. Those jeans are perfect! I love the outfit! I had given up on my quest for rolled-up jeans, but you have renewed my faith!

  30. I don’t know what to squee over more, your jacket or the fact that you’ve seen Madonna live, TWICE.

  34. the jacket is FABULOUS! as is the rest of your outfit. i hope i’ll get to see madonna live soon!!

  35. Wendy taking a micky out of ‘outfit’ bloggers.. well I love your smiling face. As you once pointed out I might need a special smile lesson from you one of those days when I do visit NYC!

    That jacket is super. My wardrobe is just too boring for a style blogger. oh well. 😉

  36. The jacket is great – I’ve never seen something like that.
    I love it, and I think, I would wear it every single day!

  38. You know, ever since I saw this roled-up boyfriend jeans trend on Katie Holmes, I hated it. But on you… Why, it looks charming! But perhaps that’s because you’re more charming than Katie!
