What Wendy Wore: Halloween With Ringo Starr

November 2, 2015 by WendyB

I like to catch Ringo Starr‘s show whenever he’s in town, so I got tickets for his October 31 concert at Kings Theatre in Brooklyn. I figured I’d dress the part of a Beatles fan in the “Mod girl” outfit I’d worn once before for Halloween. It wasn’t until last week that I realized I’d…

Fashion Repeats Itself: Faux Ostrich Feathers

October 7, 2015 by WendyB

Last week, I visited family near Chicago. During the trip, I gave my gorgeous mother, BarbaraB, her redesigned engagement ring. I also built this fabulous brick city. It was chilly outside the Windy City, so I wore my faux-ostrich feather jacket by Stacy Lomman. I didn’t take a new outfit photo with it, so here…

Throwback Thursday: Duran Duran, 1980s and Now

September 24, 2015 by WendyB

I’m having a belated, band-related fashion trauma! Ten days ago, I saw Duran Duran for the first time since 1987. The band was at Terminal 5 in New York to support their new album, Paper Gods, and my designing friend Stacy Lomman and I were there in the second row. That day, I deeply regretted…

Wanderlust 2015: Feathers Flying in St. Tropez

August 17, 2015 by WendyB

I’ve got a 1980s Bain de Soleil ad jingle stuck in my head: “Bain de Soleil, for the Saint Tropez tan …” St. Tropez was the third and final stop on our recent trip to Europe. Our friend Scott was having his 50th-birthday party at the beautiful chateau where we’d celebrated his wedding in 2008….

What Wendy Wore: That Zandra Rhodes Dress

June 19, 2015 by WendyB

I went to a party last night and, as you might have guessed from yesterday’s post, I wore my vintage Zandra Rhodes dress/caftan. Hair-styling goddess Julie Matos of the Warren-Tricomi salon put a lot of thought into the right ‘do for my outfit. Zandra is famous for her bright pink hair … View image |…

Throwback Thursday: “Ostrich” Vest by Stacy Lomman

April 30, 2015 by WendyB

My gorgeous friend Stacy Lomman designs her own clothing line and teaches up-and-coming designers at the Fashion Institute of Technology. FIT’s year-end student fashion show was held tonight, and Stacy brought me along. Nicole Richie was there too. I wore a long, faux-ostrich vest from Stacy’s Fall 2012 collection, but I didn’t get an outfit…

Oscar Fashion Flashback: Jennifer Hudson in 2007

February 21, 2015 by WendyB

I was reading the Hollywood Reporter’s Oscar issue and it included an article analyzing what color and style of gown was most likely to be worn by winning actresses. Gold was the lucky color, worn by 50% of the winners, with white in second place at 36%. But I lost all interest in the math…

Throwback Thursday: One Gold Dress Over Three Years

July 24, 2014 by WendyB

Last July 29, I attended the Women’s Jewelry Association Gala wearing, appropriately, all gold. I looked up that outfit post while contemplating what to wear to the 2014 WJA event, taking place next Monday. That’s when I realized that I always wore the same gold shoes with the same gold dress. Check it out! The…

Happy Birthday to Paul McCartney; Outfits for Ringo

June 18, 2014 by WendyB

Happy birthday to my almost-husband, Paul McCartney! He turns the big SEVEN-TWO today. When I was 13, I desperately wanted to marry Paul, who was inconveniently married to Linda at the time. I subdued my jealousy by telling myself that it would never work out between us, even if he got divorced (and divorce was…

Throwback Thursday: Who Is the Real Ostrich?

May 29, 2014 by WendyB

I LOL’d this morning when I noticed that my designing friend Stacy Lomman Instagrammed a photo of me in which I’m wearing her faux ostrich jacket while hanging out with a friend in South Africa last year. I thought her captions were really helpful. This jacket always gets so much attention, and, sometimes, uninvited stroking….
