We had two warm(ish) days in New York City this week, meaning our dreary winter might finally be ending! Hopefully, this is my last cold-weather “What Wendy Wore” post for a while. This outfit is actually from two weeks ago, when MrB and I had dinner with friends on a 29°F night. I didn’t feel…

Throwback Thursday: KC & the Sunshine Band
Here’s some disco for Throwback Thursday: KC & the Sunshine Band’s 1975 performance of “That’s the Way I Like It.” I watched this video recently and became obsessed with the dancing horn players. More bands need dancing horn players! However, in 1984, I was much more interested in Dead or Alive’s cover of the song….
Throwback Thursday: Emoji Face
Here’s a Throwback Thursday photos from my younger days. My MUCH younger days. Do you think the tongue-out emoji face was based on me? I demand royalties!
Throwback Thursday: Argyle Twinset
It’s still sweater weather here in New York City, so here’s an amusing throwback sweater photo from Thanksgiving. MrB and I were visiting my sister in Chicago. I can’t remember if I instructed MrB to wear his matching sweater that day or if it was coincidence. I probably told him to do it, because…
What Wendy Wore: Striped Wedges by — Uh-Oh!
While visiting my parents in Florida last week, my gorgeous mother and I scoped out ultra-chic store Marissa Collections. I wanted to see if my jewelry designs would be a good fit for Marissa’s luxury jewelry department (yes!) but, of course, we couldn’t resist browsing the shoe department. I’d been keeping an eye out for…
Throwback Thursday: Belated Oscar Commentary
I didn’t get around to finishing my Oscar posts in a timely way, but it’s never too late to talk about jewelry and men’s fashion, right? Anyway, it’s Throwback Thursday so I’m going to go there. My favorite piece of jewelry at the 2015 Oscars was the Piaget ear cuff and matching stud worn by…
What Wendy Wore: New York vs. Florida
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. What Wendy Wore in the Cold Sweater: Alexander McQueen (2004, purchased at Bergdorf Goodman) Skirt: McQueen (2004, purchased with sweater) Boots: Prada (2008 or 2009, recently seen here) Purse: Louis…
I Need a Vintage Ozbek Dress … and a Time Machine
You never get over your first love. I don’t mean your middle-school crush or high-school boyfriend/girlfriend. Who cares about those people?! Damn, I can’t even remember any names. The romantic feelings that last are your first music and fashion loves. Even if you don’t listen to those bands or wear those styles any more, I…
Throwback Thursday: Dressing Up at Decades in 2007
Last year, I dug up some 2007 photos of me trying on dresses at fabulous Los Angeles vintage store Decades. I previously posted my try-on photo of a Versace dress, but here are two more. MrB, of course, was crazy about this short, tight Herve Leger bandage dress. I’m so not crazy about it that…
What Wendy Wore: Vintage Moschino With Gangsta Boo
I got to see my gorgeous rapper friend Gangsta Boo while I was out in Los Angeles for the Oscars a couple of weeks ago. We went to dinner at Philippe Chow with Boo’s boo Emmet and MrB. We enjoyed the filet mignon with broccoli and the hopping restaurant scene. I swear, Boo knew everyone…
