Wednesday’s Video: The Gold Lamé Toga Met Its Match

July 10, 2019 by WendyB

My newest YouTube video is a sequel. Part I came out in April, when I confessed that a vintage gold lamé toga by designer Stephen Burrows was a fashion mistake. I don’t make too many of those with vintage, but when I do, it’s a disco doozy. OG blogger Sheila from Ephemera — an expert…

Throwback Thursday: Stephen Sprouse Skirt

August 31, 2017 by WendyB

I can’t remember exactly where or when I got my pink Stephen Sprouse skirt, which is from his Hardcore 1988 collection. I think it was in 2006. The first photo I can find of it is from 2007. This is how I wore it in 2011, while out on the town with my friend Julie….

What Wendy Wore: Ossie Clark for Dinner With Friends

August 12, 2013 by WendyB

Last week, MrB and I went to dinner with friends at a not-very-special restaurant. I decided to wear a special outfit anyway — one that was put together during last year’s wardrobe therapy with Stacy Lomman. Stacy wanted to find a way to show off an Ossie Clark piece that I bought in London in…

What Wendy Wore: Family Guy Epiphany & 2 Seinfeld References

February 19, 2013 by WendyB

When I had the chance to wear my highly flammable, oversize, costume-store-purchased pirate shirt to an Adam Ant concert last year, I had a Family Guy moment. In the Family Guy episode “Boys Don’t Cry,” the Griffin family is on the run from people who think baby Stewie is possessed by the devil. Stewie dresses…

Stacy Lomman Wardrobe Therapy: “Shades of Grey” and Yellow

December 24, 2012 by WendyB

In the past 10 days, I’ve worn outfits #11, #12 and #13 from my wardrobe therapy project with designer/stylist/blogger Stacy Lomman. Stacy has been trying to break me of my dependence on black tops. The black tops don’t always look bad, of course, but it’s interesting to mix it up. For instance, I’ve worn a…

What Wendy Wore: Conservative Versace Skirt

December 14, 2012 by WendyB

Sexy runway shows — and celebrity red-carpet choices — have convinced some people that every Versace design is scandalously flesh-baring, but, as I’ve written before, there are plenty of conservative options. I still have the sober Versace pantsuits I wore to work at Lehman Brothers between 2000 and 2005. I also have a knee-length purple…

Stacy Lomman Wardrobe Therapy: Black Skirt Ops

December 6, 2012 by WendyB

I’m still showing off results from my continuing wardrobe therapy with designer/blogger Stacy Lomman. Outfits #8 and #9 both incorporate black skirts. The skirt for #8 came from a lightweight black Dolce & Gabbana suit; I previously wore it in a Stacy-styled outfit on election night. Fashion experts have been saying, “Split up your suits…

Stacy Lomman Wardrobe Therapy: Outfits #6 and #7

November 19, 2012 by WendyB

Designer Stacy Lomman, who has been giving me wardrobe therapy, was flummoxed by one characteristic of my closet: a dearth of tops and a plethora of bottoms. She expected to find twice as many tops as bottoms, but I had the reverse. Tops are usually the hot item in stores. She explained, “It’s just easy…

What Wendy Wore: Madonna at Madison Square Garden

November 13, 2012 by WendyB

As I’ve mentioned many times, I’ve seen Madonna on every tour she’s done since 1985, when I skipped my high-school prom to see her at Radio City. For quite a while, I’ve seen her twice on each tour. She usually plays a string of dates in New York and I realized that whenever I went…

Stacy Lomman Wardrobe Therapy: Outfit #4

November 12, 2012 by WendyB

The Yelawolf concert/nor’easter on Wednesday kicked my ass. I was knocked out with a bad cold for days. Fortunately, I was able to pull myself together to go to a screening of Silver Linings Playbook last night. Knowing that I had a Stacy Lomman-styled outfit to wear helped me get out of bed. As I…
