After I posted a picture of my gorgeous client Melissa’s new pixie hairdo, a few peeps asked me if I would ever consider a pixie. Been there, done that! Here’s proof from October 1992.
I was being silly with lipstick in the Great Outdoors at the request of my gorgeous friend Phil, who was wielding the camera. This photo is labeled, “Being a nature woman.” I still have the leather jacket.
You can see the same hairdo in a flower-pinching photo here.
You looked great! This picture looks like a movie frame indeed!
You look amazing in a pixie! And the pic itself is just awesome.
Ahhhh, you look so fab WendyB!
Love the leather jacket, the haircut and the red lipstick. A great moment to remember!
What a fab pic – you style icon you!
OMG You look amazing in that pic!!!
Awww how cute you were! And quite hot too 🙂

Do I see Chanel lipstick??
Lynette — I’m a rebel without a cause. But with lipstick.
Fashion T — thanks!
Stef — never give up a jacket to an ex.
TINE – thanks!
Skye — it’s a pretty dire growing-out process though.
TCH, I liked it for a long time, but when I did it again in the late ’90s, I hated it!
Diana — thanks! Phil is a good photographer.
Sharon — I keep meaning to bring the jacket out to see if I can really wear it or if it is too dated, but not in a good way. In recent years, I’ve worn it to walk the dogs in the rain!
Songy — Oh, I’m way past wanting to see that much of my face!
Caroline — really?
Farren — yes, Altamira mentioned I did the jewelry for the Christian Francis Roth show.
Likkle — I would be the old new girl in town. Or the new old girl in town.
Coco — thanks!
MissC — I can’t find any style I haven’t done though. I have hair boredom.
ENC — Yes, he encourages me to molest them too.
Emily — thanks!
LL — yeah, that’s as much nature as I can take.
Danielle — thanks
Jennine, I bet you would look great. Lots of maintenance though.
Kristen — with lipstick.
K.Line — but that was a LONG time ago. I don’t think it would work so well now.
LBR — when I read Mac, for a moment I thought you were having lipstick problems.
Sal — “pile of ass” is a great phrase.
CDP — so far, the long arm of the law has not reached me.
MissJ — thank you!
Somlynn — now you need to post your picture.
Herald — funny, my flower-pinching photo was taken in DC
Siljes — thanks!
PAD — You have no soul so that excuse doesn’t work.
Herald — thanks, I checked that out and bragged about my jewelry 😉
Kiki — never say that!!!!
Kim — sold my soul to the devil –do you want his number?
Renaissance — I did the pixie again in 1999 after I gained some weight and was in denial about the weight gain. The haircut woke me up. After I stopped crying, I lost the weight.
Oh Lady – Thanks!
KD — Thanks!
Pretty Face — You are too kind.
Yoncto — I’ll let you know if I decide to give up that jacket.

Revolver — now I’ve got My Sharona stuck in my head.
KT — assuming you are talking about the pre-junkie days Gia, that’s the nicest compliment I’ve ever received.
Diabolina — my friend Phil has an eye for a good image.
Susie — thanks.
Alice — Thanks!
Ambika — Thanks! I’m really going to have to tell Phil that his photo is so admired.
Isabel – Thanks!

did you read this today? http://nieniedialogues.blogspot.com/2008/09/re-posted-pat.html
always 2 sides to every haircut! yours is adorable btw (nie nie’s not so much)
PPIEW – Ha! Thanks for pointing that out. I totally forgot that I had supershort hair in my early teens too and was also mistaken for a boy, though not as traumatically as NieNie was!
that is such a great shot, & you look amazing!
I had that same leather jacket in high school. It was very Marlon Brando, I thought.
But as I grew, I tried to continue wearing it even though it was ridiculously small on me.
Holy crap, Wendy, this is such a cool pic!
