Throwback Thursday: Castelbajac Lego Dress Over the Years

August 28, 2014 by WendyB

My name is Wendy Brandes and I’m a Jean-Charles de Castelbajac-aholic. One of my first Castelbajac purchases was a Lego-print dress and matching shoes, which I got in 2009. I wear the shoes frequently, and I do the full, head-to-toe Lego look about once a year. I haven’t always photographed the combo, but I did…

What Wendy Wore: Ossie Clark and Chains at WJA

July 30, 2014 by WendyB

As I mentioned, the Women’s Jewelry Association Gala took place Monday night at Pier 60 in New York. The WJA describes itself as “a networking organization dedicated to enriching and advancing the professional lives of the women in the jewelry and watch industries.” I call it a great opportunity for me to meet up with…

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…

Throwback Thursday: Patrick Kelly Dress X 5, Plus Shania & Kylie

July 17, 2014 by WendyB

I have a new obsession: collages of the same outfit in different years. I’ve always shown the outfit photos on my blog, but last month I decided to make some into collages and now I can’t stop! Here is my beloved Patrick Kelly leopard gown, from the late designer’s Fall/Winter 1989 collection, photographed in 2008,…

What Wendy Wore: Orange in Athens

July 16, 2014 by WendyB

If you follow my personal Instagram, you know that I’ve been doing a bit of traveling lately. I’m currently in Athens, where I admired the Acropolis from a rooftop restaurant last night. I wore a vintage tiger-striped Clovis Ruffin dress that I got in 2008. (It was a maxi but I hemmed it.) I often…

Throwback Thursday: Red, White & Blue Outfits for Holidays

July 3, 2014 by WendyB

It’s July 4th tomorrow, so I have some red, white and blue styles from years past for Throwback Thursday. The Jean-Charles de Castelbajac sailor outfit I got in Paris in 2010 always works for a patriotic holiday. The first time I wore it was in Mallorca — not for the 4th, just for fun. In…

Throwback Thursday: One Dress in 2002, 2010 and Today

June 26, 2014 by WendyB

After I did yesterday’s post on “dresses through the years,” I did a collage of the oldest dress — a Versace — for Facebook. Here it is. Click to enlarge! That inspired me to do another collage for Throwback Thursday with an even older dress. This leopard-print Diane von Furstenberg has been on the blog…
