Vests Making a Comeback!
We’re all seen or had a quilted vest. Many times they had a hood, were quilted and had an elastic waist. They seem to be popular for a while, then you don’t see them. Vests are making a comeback. This time around, however, the quilting seems to be less puffy, the fit is more sleek […]
Light blue feels like springtime!
If you are a fan of any shade of blue, you have to love light blue, especially as the claws of winter loosen its grip! I have been seeing light blue in a few stores, first in White House Black Market. That store features nice blue jackets with a peplum shape in a cotton and […]
The Jacket: A Girl’s Best Friend
When I look at my mom’s high school graduation photo, I see someone totally different than the lady who raised me. This girl is beautiful, dressed smartly with dark, chestnut brown hair. The mom I knew was slightly chubby, tan with curly, grey hair. She certainly wasn’t concerned with style, skin care or her clothes! […]
Cuddly Sleepwear
It feels like the middle of winter now, so I am looking for my warmest PJs and gowns to keep warm each night. I am a big fan of knitwear and flannel–obviously–for winter sleepwear. I have a couple of sets of flannel PJs, but lately I am wearing knit tops and just the bottoms. I […]
Shoes that complement your legs…
Have you ever considered the shoes you pick are just as important as the clothing you wear–they either complement your shape or they don’t. I have to laugh, I never thought about shoes being sexy…until one of my friends years ago said she liked to show “toe cleavage.” What, I said? Yes, she said. When […]
Holiday Dazzle
I’d be remiss if I didn’t visit the idea of what to wear to holiday parties and festivities. Of course, to the office holiday party, my rule is always … no cleavage, ladies, and no mini’s either. Remember, you make your living with these people, you always want to keep the atmosphere professional. I also […]
Unique Ideas for Christmas Shopping!
Black Friday — one of the busiest shopping days of the year — is coming up. So I might as well jump on the band wagon and give you some of my gift ideas. Think about giving the gift of beauty … the holidays are a perfect time to take advantage of some boxed sets. […]
Pretty Coats!
Never underestimate the power of a coat that complements you and fits you well! I have always been a coat fan. I have many, and they can dress up anything you wear. I’ve had bright red coats, a fitted camel hair coat, a plaid coat with a belt, a bright pink and even yellow raincoat. […]
The New Flannel Shirt!
If you’re like me, you think…why would I consider the flannel shirt a mainstay of my wardrobe. Yesterday’s flannel shirts were big, loud plaids you might have worn to a fall party or hayride. Think again! Today’s flannel shirts are fitted, have cute trims and some beautiful plaids that you can dress up or down! […]
The Latest Across the Pond and Beyond
A couple of my friends went to Europe before we did this fall, and I begged them to notice the latest fashions and trends over there, since we all know…fashion starts there and comes here 6 months to a year later. One friend told me she saw Converse tennis shoes everywhere…not the white or the […]
