I’m a fan of simple, easy, no-fuss fashion; pieces that make being stylish a no-brainer. Let’s face it, life is complicated enough without the added stress of trying to put together the perfect look. This is why I’m a huge fan of ponchos and capes. On the functional side, the extra layer can really […]
Sunday, January 1. Day 1 of a brand new year, which this time around, also happens to be the first day of the week. Sweet! Something so magical about New Year’s Day. It brings with it hope and expectation; the promise of a fresh start, clean slate, new beginning. Cliche, yes, but still so […]
So it looks like the cold weather is finally here. Can’t complain; we’ve had it good for long while here in DC. Just last week it was 70 degrees…in the middle of November! Boy, did I enjoy it, but deep down I was ready for some typical fall weather. Autumn has quickly moved up to […]
It’s no secret that I love to shop. Yet, while I confess to being a shopaholic, I wholeheartedly believe in getting the best bang for the buck. Let’s face it, most of us work hard for our cash and, if we’re honest, can’t necessarily afford to keep up with the celeb stylings flooding our timelines/social […]
Fall is here! Kids are back in school, leaves have begun falling and changing colors and there is a crispness in the air. It’s typically the season of sweaters and boots, but lately we’ve been experiencing unseasonable warmth. No complaints here! It’s a perfect opportunity to try out a maxi shirt/maxi t-shirt trend. The maxi […]
Football season is finally back!!!! I know I’m not the only one excited about that. This past Sunday was the NFL Kickoff and I was more than happy to rep my team (can you guess which? 😉 along with all the other eager fans of the game. I like to show my team spirit by […]
“No white after Labor Day!” It’s probably the most famous of all fashion rules, a faux pas right up there with mixing metals and visible panty lines. While I totally agree with the “No VBL!” thing, (bodyshapers are your friend!), I’m all for breaking the rules every now and again. Labor Day has come and […]
When it’s hot outside, sometimes it can be difficult to maintain your cool. High temperatures and stifling humidity all seem to work against your best efforts to look put together. This particular day I ran from meeting to meeting, in and out of A/C, finding myself wishing to be back at the beach or near […]
I love wearing black. All black. I can remember when it first started for me. It was in high school during the 80s when John Hughes films prevailed and the grunge look first hit the scene. I used to want to be one of the models in Robert Palmer’s “Simply Irresistible”, video. You remember them: […]
I love t-shirts. All kinds. My ridiculously overstuffed, “pressed down and running over” dresser-drawerful would attest to it. I somehow seem to keep collecting them! In all kinds of colors, from all kinds of events (concerts, family reunions, expos, etc.) stores, vendors…it’s just crazy. I’ve built up quite a collection and clearly have a hard […]
