Blogger Fashion Trends. They do exist. There are just some styles that bloggers latch on to, and the trend grows like wildfire. Some, I could do without, but many are so popular because they are just so darn wearable on many different shapes and ages of women, and adaptable on varying clothing budgets. While these…
I really like the capsule wardrobe posts that you have been doing. Would you consider doing one for a jeans work environment? Our company recently switched policies to allow casual dress everyday, as long as the jeans are dressier. My last three places of employment have allowed jeans as long as they were dressed up….
I must admit, life has been pretty hectic lately and your comments and emails have been piling up. Here’s a post to address some of the questions I have received. If I haven’t gotten back to you yet, hang tight! I have professional head shots being done at work soon. What should I wear?! (I’m…
There’s some people who like fashion, and there’s some who live and breathe it, understand it, research it, and share their passion and knowledge with others.

Through my stylish friend Alison I met the ever-chic Chelsea, though Chelsea I met the fashionable Rosana, and through Rosana I met Buki. I loved her positive outlook, spunky style, and true knowledge of fashion and her personal style. Not only…
I usually find issue with office attire advice from fashion magazines and websites. While the editors have the best intentions, they are so far removed from traditional office environments they can’t truly understand the needs and dress codes of their readers. What works at Hearst Media rarely will work at the corporation in town or…
Today I turn 38 years old. Saturday marked 20 years since the first time I kissed Karl. We were on the phone late at night, I said I was craving Beefaroni, he said he had to get off the phone and 30 minutes later was tossing pebbles at my bedroom window, holding a…
