Corks + Caftans

Carey quoted in Wall Street Journal article about lederhosen [leather shorts].

April 22, 2010 6 Comments

Thanks so much to Rachel Dodes for asking me for my take on this burgeoning trend! I had a ball rambling on and trying my best to avoid saying something inappropriate. Now my brother is the only Wodehouse who hasn’t been quoted in the WSJ—catch up, C.

Read the full article here.

Oh, Rolf—you fashion icon, you…

Ok, I need a nap now.

    Yay! so happy for you. Now you can breathe. See, it wasn’t negative and you didn’t sound like an idiot, Ha Ha. You are on your way to becoming an official style icon. 🙂

    I love your leather shorts – congrats on the WSJ shout-out 🙂

    To speak further about shorts…..yes, OP is a real dbag – I understand you may forget where a scarf is from or whether you picked up the socks you’re wearing from Target or Macy’s or whatever but..couldn’t you just look at the tag to see where they’re from? If you’re doing a “Today I’m Wearing” piece for Vogue? Just sayin.
