What is your Web Strategy?

With clothes shopping, the Internet has changed the equation in many ways. For one, it’s now possible if your store is out of your size and color, you or the store can go online and often find the item and have it shipped to you. Or, if it’s a name brand, just research it online […]

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 […]
