This is an old clip, but new to me. Check out Faith, the biped dog! Look at Faith hopping along! My dogs have four legs, more or less, and will barely get off the damn couch. I say more or less because Gigi has a spinal cord injury and Henry has a deformed paw. Henry’s…

A Few of My Favorite Things
Gorgeous client Shell recently asked me which of my own pieces are my favorites. That’s a tough question! But here are a few things that I like to wear. The Queen of Scots necklace, which you’ve all seen plenty of times (and I haven’t even gotten to my Mary Queen of Scots Book Club post…
It’s a Beatles-ful Day in the Neighborhood
Forty years ago today, Beatles manager Brian Epstein died of a drug overdose. There would have been no Beatlemania without Brian. He did everything from booking their first big gigs (including the Ed Sullivan show) to designing the matching suits and instituting the coordinated bow. This Washington Post story (site requires registration) claims “everyone” has…

Coachella 2016: What Wendy (and Other People) Wore
It’s easy to get a bad impression of Coachella fashion, especially after the media deluge of stories about how to dress for music festivals, followed by the stories on how music-festival fashion has gone too far. Style cliches abound on Instagram and then are beaten into the ground by style writers: the culturally inappropriate Native…
What Wendy Wore: Halloween With Ringo Starr
I like to catch Ringo Starr‘s show whenever he’s in town, so I got tickets for his October 31 concert at Kings Theatre in Brooklyn. I figured I’d dress the part of a Beatles fan in the “Mod girl” outfit I’d worn once before for Halloween. It wasn’t until last week that I realized I’d…
Year in Review: Concert Adventures in 2014
I went to a lot of concerts this year, getting off to a great start by seeing my celebrity crush Neil Young perform live on January 6. He played solo at Carnegie Hall, accompanying himself on eight or so guitars, a banjo, a horde of harmonicas, two pianos and an organ. The New York Times…
Year in Review: What Wendy Wore in 2014
Here’s a “What Wendy Wore” outfit for each month of 2014. Click the photos for the original posts. I love vintage clothes, so I wore a Spring 1992 Versace dress to my New Year’s party. I last wore it to ring in the year 2008. A few weeks ago, I discovered this little photo of…

Adam Ant: From Halloween Costume to Concert Attire
Between Hurricane Sandy and work, I didn’t get around to making Halloween plans. I had a great costume in mind too. My favorite part about dressing up is the hair and makeup, so I’m definitely not going to stick a pair of cat ears on my head, draw on some eyeliner whiskers and call it…
