MrB and I are in Miami, happy to have escaped New York’s cold weather for a couple of days. Here’s what I wore for dinner with friends last night, styled in advance by Stacy Lomman. What Wendy Wore Top: Kelly Wearstler (2012) Jeans: Acne (2007) Shoes: Miu Miu (2010) I want to go to sleep…

New Jewelry Design: Emoticon-Heart Stud-Earring Set
When I started this blog in July 2007, I decided I wasn’t going to write about jewelry every day. In fact, I decided I wasn’t going to commit to writing about any one topic every day. Even back then, before the fashion-blogger boom, I’d already seen numerous fashion bloggers burn out after six or eight…
Fall 2013’s Fur-Skirt Mini-Trend; Plus, Phind Me on Pheed!
The Fall 2013 fashion shows have wrapped up and Eric Wilson of The New York Times, who observed a lot of mini-trends on the runways, picked one that stood out to him: “… most intriguing, both in its pervasiveness and its silliness,” he wrote, “is the fur skirt.” But, Wilson wondered, why does the fur…
What Wendy Wore: Out and About in Los Angeles
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: Vanity Fair Oscar Party, Part II
On Monday, I posted my outfit for Sunday’s Vanity Fair Oscar party. It was the same ensemble I wore to the Committee to Protect Journalists dinner in November. What Wendy Wore Dress: Zang Toi (2012) Jacket: Junya Watanabe (2012) Unseen shoes: Versace (2003) It turns out that I had a couple of higher-profile sisters in…
What Wendy Wore: Zang Toi to Vanity Fair Oscar Party
I was super-excited to go to the Vanity Fair Oscar party in Los Angeles last night. This event is a major thrill for me … but that doesn’t always mean I get a new dress for the occasion. I actually enjoy wearing the same dress to events that are just a few months apart, especially…
My Best Dressed at the Oscars: Naomi Watts
I saw lots of very lovely, appropriate dresses on the Oscar red carpet tonight. (I’ll include Anne Hathaway, whose “nipples” are actually — I think — darts in her Prada dress.) Like the Golden Globes, there was nothing crazy enough to warrant one of my coveted Best Dressed/Wear What You Want combo awards; Helena Bonham…
What Wendy Wore: The Weinstein Company Pre-Oscar Party
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…
Show Me Your Puffy Shirts
Gorgeous blogger Val Sparkle — fellow aficionado of Seinfeld and Family Guy — posted her very own puffy shirt on her blog yesterday. Quite a few wimmins have emailed or tweeted me to tell me about their own puffy shirts since I posted mine on Tuesday. I think I should do a slideshow of puffy-shirt…
“Exit Through the Gift Shop”*
I can’t resist a museum gift shop. When I’m at one in real life, I’m drawn to catalogs and books. On the Internets, I look at fashion. Last night, I was browsing some gift shops online when I hit the Guggenheim‘s site. Why didn’t I know that this New York City museum sells a reproduction…
