Stripes Gone Wild

January 28, 2010 by WendyB

I want to wear this dress the next time I see stripe-loving blogger Deja Pseu.

Acne dress, $199. Click to shop.

The Wall Street Journal says stripes are in, and I believe everything I read in the Wall Street Journal … except for the editorial page, of course.

    Ha! You could wear this dress with sassy aplomb. Me, I’d look horrendous…

    haha, I love how the Wall Street Journal is commenting on… fashion. I know it’s do to with economics/the market, but since when has what sells lots been anything to do with good style?

    Pretty Face, I’m not going to tell my friend who has covered fashion for the WSJ for decades what you just said 😉

    Stripes are always in! It’s like plaid, it’s always a “new” trend. This dress is hot, you should get it WendyB!

    What a fantastic frock. Albeit unforgiving of lumpage and bumpage.

    Reminds Miss J of the fabulous one-armed dress WendyB wore a few months back during her LA visit.

    Nice. Reminds me a little bit of an old Bill Blass style. I’m sure I have the clipping somewhere!!

    No comment on the dress, maybe that’s why the Wall Street journal won’t hire me. But….I did buy the stripe shirt that Deja got 😉

    I love this dress in all kinds of inappropriate ways. Do you think those of us who are not a size 2 could pull it off?

    The stripes make my eyes go funny. Love the dress but hard to pull off!

    I believe everything I read in the New York Times and The Village Voice. Seriously, half my sentences begin with “Actually, I read an article about that in the New York Times a few weeks ago . . . ” Also, T magazine.

    Should I ever have an urge to look like a zebra crossing with additional speed bumps I would totally choose that dress.

    This dress is the new version of your vintage leopard dress…go for it. xo Mish

  22. Shawn says

    January 28, 2010 at 11:48 pm

    Oh—-you would look stunning in that dress! As for me, I would look like a fat zebra or something….
    Love stripes, by the by—-I am ALWAYS attracted to them in my tops.

    Stripes gone wild, I totally read that as something else so I was glad to be greeted with a beautiful striped dress. 😉

    Hi there-love everything about this dress- I want it too, LOL!

  25. Susan says

    January 29, 2010 at 3:19 am

    Stripes have never gone out!

  26. Diana says

    January 29, 2010 at 9:24 am

    That stripey dress is gorgeous! I agree with Susan that stripes never go out of style, but it seems that Breton stripes and nautical-ish stripes are really experiencing a resurgence lately.

    I’m a little bit in love with that dress.

    Stripes = yes. That dress = no. I am indifferent to the Wall Street Journal.

  29. Retro Chick says

    January 29, 2010 at 10:50 am

    My eyes have gone funny now.

    I suppose if I was wearing it I wouldn’t have to look at it! Genius

  30. miss cavendish says

    January 29, 2010 at 11:25 am

    Blindingly cool! That dress calls out for a monogram . . . 😉

  31. Eric says

    January 29, 2010 at 2:02 pm

    They just like it because it is black and white, like the WSJ.

  36. drollgirl says

    January 29, 2010 at 6:31 pm

    dude. get that dress. i am pretty sure i would look terrible in it, but you would look SUPER in it!

  37. Danz says

    January 29, 2010 at 7:05 pm

    Great dress but there is ab-so-lute-ly no way I could ever wear it. I’d look horrendous but I’m sure on the right body it’d work wonderfully.
    Take care and enjoy your weekend 🙂
