Baby’s Got Blue Eyes!
Saphire and Cobalt blue seem to be all the rage this summer season, as is navy. What I love about these colors is that they flatter virtually everyone. I love the bright cheery tones! I also like to add blue or even touches of teal to my makeup, especially my eye makeup. Most ladies are […]
Juniors, Kid’s Dept Shoppers: It’s Okay!
I recently read a story about Bethany Frankel tweeting a photo of herself wearing her 4-year-old daughter’s Hello, Kitty PJs. They fit her perfectly. The public screamed their criticism of Bethany’s ultra thin shape–that fit into children’s wear. While I am not going to pass judgment on her, I will readily admit to this: I […]
Class Reunion: Proceed with Caution!
I just watched a TV show talking about what to wear to your class reunion. It was fun! The number one rule: Don’t dress in the era you remember. For instance, if you went to high school in the 1980s, don’t dress like Madonna! (Yes, it might have been a great look for you when […]
When Casual is Not Chic!
A couple years ago, we were waiting at the airport to fly home from Paris. It was mid-morning. As I stood in line to check in, I noticed a cute little family huddled in the corner. They looked very French as well as sleepy, slow moving, and yes, very casual. The children (probably preteen age) […]

Work Picnic: Tread With Caution
We have all been there: The Company Picnic. For many people, it’s a quandary: what should I wear? I want to look more casual, but not too casual: will people think I want to goof off? Will I look stupid? Or if I am too dressed up, will I look too corporate or uptight? As […]
Goodwill Goes Uptown
Thrift Store Tips From Your Indianapolis Wardrobe Stylist Many Fashionistas I know already shop at thrift stores such as Goodwill. I am amazed at some of their cute finds. I, too, caught the thrift store bug and shopped a Goodwill store in Manhattan in the Chelsea District while we vacationed there. While I can only […]
Fun in the Sun
If you are like me, you have fond memories of the summer. I lived in a rural area of Indiana, and it seemed there were hours to read, play outside with my neighbors and pets, and, when I was old enough to drive, meet friends at the swimming pool or local hangouts. Back then, being […]
Skin Care is for Men, too!
Being in the cosmetics industry, makeup and someone’s look are always on my mind for women and even for men. At a few weddings, some grooms will even let me apply some transparent power or oil control lotion so they won’t look shiny at the altar. It takes quite a bit of persuasion, though. Men […]
Jewelry Supports Women Around the World
This week at my book group, we discussed Kisses From Katie, a story about a young woman who is devoting her life to helping orphaned children in Uganda. What she has accomplished is nothing short of a miracle. Davis’ nonprofit, Amazima Ministries International, connects 600 vulnerable children with sponsor families worldwide and feeds 1,500 kids a week. […]
