Throwback Thursday: Slow-Fashion Summer

October 24, 2019 by WendyB

I never got around to blogging a bunch of summer outfits. Honestly, the activism is taking a lot out of me these days, and blogging has definitely suffered. Anyway, here are my two most notable looks for July — both with #slowfashion elements, of course.

I was casual for our 18th anniversary dinner on July 22.

What Wendy Wore
Top: Pucci (2005)
Jeans: Frame (2019 — new! wow!)
Shoes: Jil Sander (2008)
Purse: Prada (2007)

I’ve got some things to say about that top at a later date, but for now, I’ll make this a real throwback post by sharing a picture me wearing it in 2011. I’d just been rained on at Lollapalooza.

Earlier in July, I wore a Patricia Field dress from 2015 to another dinner. This isn’t as “vintage” as the Pucci top, but I think it still counts as slow fashion if it’s four years old and still going strong. What do you think?

What Wendy Wore
Dress: Patricia Field (2015)
Shoes: Dolce & Gabbana (2015, before the brand was ruined for me)
Belt: Random thing I bought online (2016, previously seen in 2016)

Here’s a photo of the dress from 2015.

I get so much use out of that dress that I wish I had another as backup!
