Another Slow-Fashion Fan: Tami Roman

November 14, 2017 by WendyB

In my excitement over my unexpected appearance as “One Woman” on Inside Edition yesterday, I forgot to mention another proud slow-fashion fan. Shout-out to my gorgeous rapper friend Gangsta Boo for pointing out this hi-fucking-larious “Bonnet Chronicles” Instagram post by reality-TV star Tami Roman about wearing shoes till the heel falls off. I can’t even decide what my favorite line is; you’re gonna have to watch the whole thing.

Oh Em Gee! Boo actually sent me the link to this a couple of days before comedian Tiffany Haddish made a splash by rewearing her Alexander McQueen dress to host Saturday Night Live. (“I’m sad I never expressed my love of keeping stuff as well as [Tami] did,” I replied to Boo.) When I saw Haddish take up the cause of slow fashion, aka homegrown vintage, I thought, “Great, I’ll blog about Tiffany AND Tami.” And then Inside Edition kinda/sorta stole my tweeted photos and I lost my damn mind.

Turns out my sister wasn’t the only one who caught my “One Woman” show yesterday. My friend Akim saw it too. He sent me this clip, personalized with his commentary.

I love it. You know what else I’d love? A real-life girls’ trip with Tiffany and Tami and Boo (who says she’s also “down for the rewear cause”), where we bring our favorite, frequently worn clothes and take tons of photos for slow-fashion collages like this one, made for me by fashionista Sasha Charnin Morrison.

Sasha's other post with me … and all the celebs who wore this dress in 2011! I think I'm the only one of us still wearing it in 2017. #repost @sashacharninmorrison #thanksgirl #whoworeitbest #theydid #theyrefamous #duh #lol #prada #dressonrepeat #slowfashion #summerdresses #investmentpieces #pink #stripes #gwenstefani

There would be some drinking too, I imagine!

Anyway, check out the full Bonnet Chronicles account here. In addition, if you haven’t subscribed to my YouTube channel, do it now, so you don’t miss my next video, which is about purses I’ve kept for over 10 years.
