What Wendy Wore: New York vs. Florida

March 10, 2015 by WendyB

At the end of last month — in between New York’s numerous snowstorms — I wore this 2004 sweater-and-skirt set out to dinner with friends.

Sweater: Alexander McQueen (2004, purchased at Bergdorf Goodman)
Skirt: McQueen (2004, purchased with sweater)
Boots: Prada (2008 or 2009, recently seen here)
Purse: Louis Vuitton (2011)

That photo is a bit blurry but it was way too cold to stand outside without my coat for a redo.

This week, while visiting my parents in Florida, I wore this outfit to dinner.

Top: Castelbajac (2014)
Shorts: Castelbajac (2013)
Shoes: Prada (2011)

I prefer option No. 2. I’m anti-snow and anti-cold. What am I doing in New York? Sometimes I wonder!

To see the Florida outfit worn exactly the same way (right down to the crossed legs) in Arizona last year, click here.

    Let’s go girl – trading places. I’ve got a groovy condo on the beach that I’ll swap for your NYC pad any day! Trust me, the “perfect” weather here is about to go south, if you know what I mean. xo
