In New York, I grudgingly allow myself to be dragged to the movies once every few months. The theaters are generally disgusting, and so are the people, who are texting, talking, chewing like cows and generally carrying on in seats so narrow I might as well be flying coach, complete with drunk businessmen and screaming babies. Arclight has huge screens, great acoustics, big seats, reserved seating, and audience members who are obsessed with The Business and are, therefore, respectful and quiet during the movie.<\/p>\n<p>For <em>Life of Pi<\/em>, I broke out a patent top that <a href=\"http:\/\/stacylomman.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">designer<\/a>\/<a href=\"http:\/\/taffetadarlings.blogspot.com\" target=\"_blank\">blogger<\/a>\/<a href=\"http:\/\/wendybrandes.com\/blog\/category\/wardrobe-therapy\/\" target=\"_blank\">stylist<\/a> picked out for me at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.intermixonline.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Intermix<\/a> recently.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-19500\" alt=\"laclothes1\" src=\"http:\/\/wendybrandes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/laclothes11.jpg\" width=\"444\" height=\"872\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wendybrandes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/laclothes11.jpg 740w, https:\/\/www.wendybrandes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/laclothes11-152x300.jpg 152w, https:\/\/www.wendybrandes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/laclothes11-521x1024.jpg 521w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 444px) 100vw, 444px\" \/><strong>What Wendy Wore to the Movies<\/strong><br \/>\n<em><strong>Jacket:<\/strong> Stacy Lomman Fall 2012 collection (acquired 2013)<\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>Top:<\/strong> L&#8217;Agence (2013)<\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>Jeans:<\/strong> Acne (2007)<\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>Boots:<\/strong> Helmut Lang (pre-2005)<\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>Purse:<\/strong> Louis Vuitton (2001)<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">People have been running after me all week here, asking about that faux-ostrich-feather jacket.

During our <a href=\"http:\/\/wendybrandes.com\/blog\/category\/wardrobe-therapy\/\" target=\"_blank\">wardrobe-therapy<\/a> sessions, Stacy noticed a startling lack of basic layering pieces. So she took me out shopping to get things like a navy skirt. One of the great things about working with Stacy &#8212; in addition to being better dressed &#8212; is that I have a new way to fend off aggressive salespeople while browsing without her: &#8220;I have to ask my stylist,&#8221; I say.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-19502\" alt=\"laoutfit2\" src=\"http:\/\/wendybrandes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/laoutfit2.jpg\" width=\"448\" height=\"635\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wendybrandes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/laoutfit2.jpg 747w, https:\/\/www.wendybrandes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/laoutfit2-211x300.jpg 211w, https:\/\/www.wendybrandes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/laoutfit2-722x1024.jpg 722w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 448px) 100vw, 448px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><center><strong>What Wendy Wore Out and About<\/strong><br \/>\n<em><strong>Jacket:<\/strong> Zang Toi (unsure of year, but it&#8217;s been a while!)<\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>Top:<\/strong> Wolford (2013, thanks to Stacy)<\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>Skirt:<\/strong> Donna Karan (2013, thanks to Stacy)<\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>Shoes:<\/strong> Prada (2012)<\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>Purse:<\/strong> Louis Vuitton (2001)<br \/>\n<\/em><em><strong>Necklace:<\/strong> My own design<\/em><\/center><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">I&#8217;d never worn that little jacket before, because I didn&#8217;t have anything to go with it.
