I’ve always thought my New York City taxi ring needed a few accessories. I finally found some! You can get these 1980s vintage Moschino shoes on 1stdibs. I also found a taxi purse at a store called The Wind in the Willows in Naples, Fla. I was a big fan of The Wind in the…

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.

Throwback Thursday: Dressing Up at Decades in 2007

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…
What Wendy Wore: AGTA Spectrum Awards in Tucson
Earlier this month, I was in Arizona for the big Tucson Gem & Mineral Show. The temperature in New York fell to about 5 degrees that week, so I was delighted to be in warmer cactus country. I have excellent gem dealers in New York City, but it can still be tough to find very…
