We All Love Maxi’s!

Maxi dresses are hitting the stores, and I love to look at all of them. There are so many choices, it’s hard to choose. The one maxi I already bought is from Tommy Bahama. I could not believe how great their store is–I found a couple when I was on vacation. I have a graduation […]

Summer’s Perfect for Gingham

We’ve seen gingham for a couple of seasons now, but it’s ever so perfect for summer as the temps heat up and we turn to more casual, easy pieces during our downtime. I love gingham in cotton for shirts,dresses, skirts, even shorts. When you select your gingham pieces, consider your size. Petite women should think […]

The Best Investment You Will Ever Make

If you are like me, you’ve bought many raincoats over the years–many of them trench coats or colorful, almost dress-like coats for spring. These are fun and a great addition to your wardrobe. A couple of years ago, I spent more than $250 on a spring coat, which for me, at the time, was a […]

Pantone Color of the Year

Hello Fashionistas, Many of you might already know this, but the Pantone Color of the Year 2016 is Rose Quartz and lilac. It’s a pretty combination, one I used this past Easter.

As we trudge through the rest of our Midwest winter, I’d like to pass along a little fashion tidbit…STripes are still huge! And,I don’t mean the size. Stripes in clothing, […]

Winter Skincare Update

The beginning of the year is always a good time to think about your skin care and makeup. When I meet with clients and talk about beauty routines, I ask what do you do? I will encourage you to cleanse, moisturize, exfoliate and target problem areas. I used to do professional makeup, mostly for weddings, […]

New Year, New You…

As and Indianapolis Fashion Stylist, I encourage you to do two things this year: Try to stop buying lots of cheap clothing or things you don’t really need just because it’s on sale. I even encourage you to try not shopping for a month, take stock of your closet and clean it out… Then shop. […]
