I don’t mean to brag, but these are truly transformative tips. Super stylish suggestions. Really radical resolutions. Sorry. I got a little carried away. But honestly. These tips, you guys. Just one of them is enough to transform your style in 2022. Seriously. But if you want a major progression in your style, over the […]

It’s the little things, really, that can elevate the everyday outfit and make it feel special and stylish. And that’s what today’s post/video is all about. Like every season, fall brings with it a unique set of challenges and opportunities when it comes to style. We want to look festive without feeling silly, warm without […]

Maybe it’s old age ;), but I’ve gone from being a fly-by-the-seat-of-my-pants kind of girl to one who sees the value in systems and routines. Don’t yawn. I promise I won’t tell you to get up at 5 a.m. It’s just that for the better part of my life I’ve improvised and reinvented the wheel […]

While you guys have been out there working your colorful coats and puffer vests and leather leggings, I have been home. In pajamas. With vacation coming to a close, two sniffly girls and the coldest weather of the season, I hibernated. And it has been glorious. Tomorrow, however, I will wear clothes. And shoes. And […]

I have been forced to borrow reading glasses from friends twice in the last few days.

Where does this elusive thing called confidence come from, and how can we have more of it? I believe that true confidence comes from knowing that we are […]

I’ll admit it. Clothes can be confusing. Stop me if you think that you’ve heard this one before. When I was 12, back in the 1980s (yes, I am that old… thanks for not noticing!) I found a plaid power suit in Vogue and begged my immensely talented mom to make one for my 50-pound […]

  I’m continuing Fashion Questions and Condundrums Week (I said it again. Co-nun-drum), because, frankly, last week got away from me and questions kept pouring in. Okay, maybe not pouring. More like trickling. But still, I got questions. And some of them I get over and over again. So this week I am going to […]

I am 40-something, and I have long hair. Not longish. Long. As in halfway down my back long. And I have no apologies. This is how I like to wear it, and I’ll wear it this way until I change my mind. There is a lot of truth to the adage that you are only […]
