For 2017<\/a>, I was proud to be able to do a “What Wendy Wore” year in review post featuring 12 slow-fashion outfits. In 2018 — despite Henry David Thoreau’s famous “… beware of all enterprises that require new clothes” — some of my most notable looks did require something new. I mean, I normally don’t hang out on beaches in Iceland in January. I had to do some shopping for that!<\/p>\n

A lot of pieces were purchased in December 2017 for this trip. Click for the deets!<\/p><\/div><\/center><\/p>\n

Now that I think of it, it’s a little funny to wear a label called “Libertine” to a wedding, isn’t it? But that’s what I did in May.<\/p>\n

It was a chilly day, so I dressed for fall!<\/p><\/div><\/center><\/p>\n

In June, I was at the Couture jewelry show in Las Vegas<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I posted the photo in July, but it was taken in June, I swear!<\/p><\/div><\/center><\/p>\n

Honestly, I’m not happy with the head-to-toe photo of the beloved Versace dress I wore to the Women’s Jewelry Association Awards in July<\/a>. I’m not even sure why I posted that, unless it was to encourage myself to get back to the gym. Let’s look at the top of it in this video instead.<\/p>\n
