What Wendy Wore: ’80s-Inspired Mesh and Jeggings

May 16, 2017 by WendyB

I’ve got a new YouTube video coming out tomorrow, for which I wore a 1980s-inspired outfit. Because you can’t see the head-to-toe look in the video, my right-hand woman Eryn took this full-length photo. What Wendy Wore Mesh jacket: God Save LA (2013, inspired by Madonna and previously seen here) T-shirt: Splendid Jeggings: J. Brand…

Cavalli Goes for the Gold

December 6, 2011 by WendyB

A Neiman Marcus catalog came in the mail and I was very taken by this pair of gold-on-gray Cavalli jeans. I like the eye-catching-yet-somehow-neutral color. But, to be honest, I am also fantasizing that my legs would look as long as the model’s if I wore those jeans. That reminds me that in 1999, I…

Photos From Labor Day in Montauk, N.Y.

September 5, 2011 by WendyB

A sign at “Lunch” in Montauk. All seagulls make me think of Family Guy. (Of course, everything makes me think of Family Guy.) My friend Carl wears red pants, just like Justin Bieber. Hope your weekend was a good one!

Musical Men in Red Pants at the VMAs

August 29, 2011 by WendyB

I first noticed the new popularity of red pants at the Independent Fashion Bloggers conference in February. Soon they were on so many bloggers that I put a red-pants slideshow together for the Huffington Post. At that point, I remembered that I’d grown up watching male rockers on MTV jumping around in tight red pants….

Be Like WendyB in Castelbajac Sailor Pants

July 16, 2011 by WendyB

For those of you who like my Castelbajac sailor pants … … they’re on sale on Yoox.com. I think I got a better deal on them when I bought them on sale at the store last year, but unless you have a time machine set for 2010, you’ll have to make do with Yoox. Yoox…

Fashion Bloggers Caught Red-Legged, Vintage Edition

March 23, 2011 by WendyB

I found my own red-pants photo too late for yesterday’s post on red-legged bloggers, so it gets a special post. This was taken in Prague in 1999 or so. I’m a little demoralized to see how long I’ve been dependent on black t-shirts. I had those pants in black too. I gave away the red…

Never Is the Next New Thing™: Knickers Update II

February 9, 2011 by WendyB

Ever since knickers showed up on my Never is the Next New Thing™ radar, I’ve been keeping an eye out for more examples. I already found a very wearable pair by J Brand. More recently, I noticed these Dolce & Gabbana pants from The Outnet. At first, I found the military details to be over…

Never Is the Next New Thing™: Knickers Update

January 25, 2011 by WendyB

My “Never Is the Next New Thing™”* fashion theory proposes that the most provocative/grating/startling looks — the ones that make you say, “I would NEVER wear that!” — are the ones most likely to become trends, big or small. We need to be jolted out of our fashion complacency before we move in a new…

Ashish at Browns and Other Sequined Stuff

July 22, 2009 by WendyB

I can’t believe I was just in London and didn’t go to Browns! WTF! Well, I had more important things to do most days. But I love looking at the Browns website and I definitely regret not squeezing in a visit in person. Right now I’m going crazy over a couple of pieces by Ashish,…
