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…
“Wear What You Want™” Icon: Helena Bonham Carter
I laughed out loud — in delight! — when I saw actress Helena Bonham Carter’s wild hair, exposed tulle and, especially, her mismatched shoes at the Golden Globes in January.

The WendyB Pose-Off Results and More Posers
