After I posted a picture of my gorgeous client Melissa’s new pixie hairdo, a few peeps asked me if I would ever consider a pixie. Been there, done that! Here’s proof from October 1992.
I was being silly with lipstick in the Great Outdoors at the request of my gorgeous friend Phil, who was wielding the camera. This photo is labeled, “Being a nature woman.” I still have the leather jacket.
You can see the same hairdo in a flower-pinching photo here.
Oh, I thought that was a still shot from an old movie, you know, with James Dean or Marlon Brando. All kidding aside, you’re so cute, WendyB.
Thanks for the visit and the advice.
I’m going to read about Bumpe soon, I promise. He’s cute, too.
so cute! that hair looks so good on you
Works on you! Hair and the jacket (Wish I had saved the biker jacket that belonged to my ex. Left the jacket when I left him. Man, that was a good jacket).
Oh Wendy, you are extremely cute!
You were a supercute pixie!
I think everyone’s got to try the pixie at least once, that way if it turns out to be the perfect look for you then you’ll know about it. Everyone else can just grow it back again.
That is a great picture. I agree with Lynette, it looks like a film still.
The real question is: did you like the pixie cut?
Great pic !!
oh, so cute-you really suit this hairstyle!! That jacket needs to be worn again, really it must!!
does look like some kind of an editorial shot. what a cute hairdo. What’s stopping you from going back to that look though (apart from been there and done that). You have a nice looking head as well. No kidding. My head is so flat at the back I just cannot do that hair cut.
baddest ass picture ever? i think so.
I love you with the pixie! There are very few women who can pull that off and you’re lucky to be one of them. I alwyas want to go in that direction but I would not look at all amzing. LOL. Hey! Weren’t you on altamira or something? I swear I remember a post saying something about Wendy B who designs jewelry! =) It has just been a blur of blog posts since the fashion weeks have started so I hope I’m getting that right! =)
Hey Ms Hottie B!
A pixie-cut revisit will definitely make you look like “the new girl in town”! x
Gosh this is an amazing photo. It’s such a great cut too!
Very pretty! Just have your stylist par excellence make it extra piece-y to be on the cutting edge of 2008. But truly, you can wear any style!!
Does Mr.B know that you have such a tawdry relationship with flowers? 😉
I love the pixie on you. I also love the shag. Is there any cut you *can’t* do?
you rock this look wonderfully…very winona ryder.
LOL, being a nature women in a leather jacket, that is great. You are too cute 🙂
awesome photo.
oh my god! you are so adorable! that haircut looks great, almost makes me think i would want to do something along those lines…
Papa Don’t Preach…
Kick ass!
@ Moira — ha! Too true. No Italians Do It Better t-shirt though.
You have such gorgeous hair it seems wrong to cut it all off. Having said that I love the pixie cut and I think it looks tremendously gamine on you. K
For some reason my Mac is refusing to see the picture. Waaaah! 🙁 But, I bet you were super lovely with your hair short—all the better to show your lovely face.:-)
Jealous! I have tried a pixie several times an look like a pile of ass. You, of course, are a-freakin-dorable.
I had no idea that your crimes against flowers had been going on for so many years. Will no one stop this woman?
MIss J loves the pixie on Miss WendyB. It shows her lovely face.
we rocked the same look in 1992!
dark hair, red lips and the same moto jacket (which i still own too).
leather jacket, lipstick, adorable hair, this picture has it all. and you look exactly like a friend of mine in DC, so if you’re ever there again in a pixie cut and someone calls you “Audrey” you’ll know why.
Lovely picture of you! You really rocked that hairdo back in the 90s.
That was a good look for you. Whenever I find a good look, possibly in the next three decades, I will make sure to also have someone else take a picture of it. Until then, however, I’m going to keep pretending I hate pictures because they steal my soul.
Wendy, also, the Preppy Princess did a review today of the Christian Francis Roth show – thepreppyprincess.wordpress.com
wow I wasn’t even born yet!
other than the haircut, you look exactly the same! That is NOT FAIR!
Love it!!!! I have also had a pixie and would love to do it again. But my face needs to shrink a little…okay, everything needs to shrink a little!
Uh, this word is so overused, but…
FIEEEEERCE!
I love that photo and pixie hairdos rock! And so do leather jackets.
The jacket with the lipstick and the hair and your face are all just perfect!
you look gorgeous! and the jacket…. the jacket.. THE JACKET…. *drools*
I usually think pixie cuts make people with standout bone structure look even more frail and delicate, but wow! This picture of you rocking the haircut with the red lipstick and leather jacket just says “badass.” I love it.
You look badass!
Oh that pixie cut looks super swanky on you!
you look so savvy! i had a pixie cut back in the days too but it’s so hard to maintain.
I had that same biker jacket!
Wish I’d kept it.
You should totally do it again! It looks fab! You know, that hairdo does not work on anyone.. You’re one of the lucky few..
Oh and you totally look badass in that pic! Red lips, cropped hair and a leather biker jacket! What a lethal combo!
wow, you wear that look well. i like this hairstyle on you.
Looks like a shot from one of those 90’s Gen X movies…..”Singles”..or “Reality Bites” or some such shit…but you look really good!!!!
I swear, this picture so makes me think of Gia Carangi. I never noticed the likeness until just now. Has anyone ever told you that?
what a dream of a photo!
That is such a MINT shot of you…
