I wore “homegrown<\/a>” vintage when I went out with gorgeous blogger<\/a>\/designer<\/a> Stacy Lomman on Monday. I got this polka-dot silk top at the Tahari store in New York’s World Financial Center<\/a> between 1992 and 1995.<\/p>\n

Check out the matching scarf.<\/p><\/div>\n

There was an Ann Taylor store near the Tahari store. I used to go into those two stores every couple of days and stare at the things I wanted while I waited for them to go on sale. It was like real-life Pinterest<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"What Wendy Wore
\n<\/strong>Top:<\/strong> Tahari (early ’90s)<\/em>
\nJeans:<\/strong> Acne<\/em>
\nShoes:<\/strong> Prada (2011<\/a>)
\nRings:<\/strong> My own designs<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

I hadn’t worn this shirt in several years, but I felt good in it this week, so once again I’m happy that I don’t follow closet-purging rules<\/a>. Stacy was also wearing a little silk shirt, jeans and wedges, so we had a doorman at the Plaza Hotel take a picture of us in our matchy outfits.<\/p>\n

We were having drinks at the Plaza because it’s across the street from an Apple store that’s open 24\/7. I needed a new battery for my computer for weeks, but I didn’t want to face the crowds there during the day, and I felt too lazy to go at night. Finally, Stacy promised me that if I brought my computer in, we could have drinks at the Plaza. A good friend always knows how to motivate you! Now my computer doesn’t shut off whenever it becomes unplugged.\u00a0 The Spinning Beach Ball of Death<\/a> is still bugging me though. <\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
