What Wendy Wore: Out and About in Los Angeles

March 1, 2013 by WendyB

We’re heading back to New York today, though I wish I could stay a few more days in Los Angeles, just to go to the movies if nothing else. I finally saw Django Unchained and Life of Pi while we were out here, because they were playing at the fabulous Arclight Cinemas in Hollywood. In…

What Wendy Wore: The Weinstein Company Pre-Oscar Party

February 24, 2013 by WendyB

I’m in Los Angeles for Oscar festivities! I’m not going to the ceremony this time, but that’s okay. I’ve already lurked seductively behind George Clooney on the Oscar red carpet once in my life — who could ask for anything more? Last night was The Weinstein Company’s pre-Oscar part at Soho House. Dorothy Pomerantz, writing…

What Wendy Wore: Family Guy Epiphany & 2 Seinfeld References

February 19, 2013 by WendyB

When I had the chance to wear my highly flammable, oversize, costume-store-purchased pirate shirt to an Adam Ant concert last year, I had a Family Guy moment. In the Family Guy episode “Boys Don’t Cry,” the Griffin family is on the run from people who think baby Stewie is possessed by the devil. Stewie dresses…

What Wendy Wore: Gold Lamé at Zang Toi’s Show

February 18, 2013 by WendyB

My designing friend Zang Toi had his Fall 2013 show at Lincoln Center last Wednesday. This season, he was inspired by Imperial Russia. Opulence. Zang has it! I was particularly attracted to the pieces in amethyst and emerald. Now that I think of it, maybe I’m looking for something to go with my Marie Antoinette…

What Wendy Wore: Exactly What She Was Told To Wear

February 2, 2013 by WendyB

My gorgeous friend Alyssa, who is an excellent cook, invited a bunch of us wimmins over for a fabulous dinner at her apartment last night.  Of course, I asked designer/blogger/stylist Stacy Lomman what I should wear. I let her make all my outfit decisions lately, even for casual occasions. I prefer her taste to my…

What Wendy Wore: Stylist’s Own Sweater

January 29, 2013 by WendyB

You know those times you’re looking at a fashion editorial in a magazine and see the Best!Thing!Ever!? And you have to have that thing, so you look for the store credits and then get depressed when it says “stylist’s own”? I felt like I was in a fashion magazine on Sunday when designer/blogger/FIT instructor/stylist/neighbor Stacy…

Words of Wisdom From Gianni Versace and Liu Qianping

January 17, 2013 by WendyB

I posted an eye-catching vintage dress by Versace’s diffusion label, Versus, earlier this month. Gorgeous designer/blogger/stylist/neighbor/BFF Stacy Lomman took notice and paid me a visit with a big Versace book in hand. She thought she spotted the Versace season that was then re-interpreted by Versus. While I flipped through the book admiring the photos of…

What Wendy Wore: New Year’s Eve, Hostess Style

January 1, 2013 by WendyB

A “hostess gown” is described by the website Vintage Fashion Guild as “a dressy full length garment for [home] entertaining, but not as formal as evening wear. Other than the full length, the lines followed current fashion.” The style was most popular from the 1930s to the 1970s, according to the site. In a December…

Kanye West, Azealia Banks & a New Year’s Resolution

December 30, 2012 by WendyB

Yesterday, after I gave Kanye West a pat on the back for his edgy wardrobe choices, he went right back to doing what he does best: complaining about how the world won’t let Kanye West be great. While venting at a second show in Atlantic City last night he said the Grammys have done him…
