Channeling June Cleaver…
Readers, I’ve always been a fan of the lady dress: The full, pleated skirt. Well, fashion times have granted my wishes. These dresses are very much in vogue, and so many women can look absolutely darling in them. The full, long pleated skirts are in style, too, and I love them as well. Those of […]
Stripes are all the rage!
It’s hard to even imagine warm, spring weather and green grass, but people, it’s already much lighter in the evenings. Noticed it? I always do. As we trudge through the rest of our Midwest winter, I’d like to pass along a little fashion tidbit…STripes are still huge! And,I don’t mean the size. Stripes in clothing, […]
Winter Skincare Update
The beginning of the year is always a good time to think about your skin care and makeup. When I meet with clients and talk about beauty routines, I ask what do you do? I will encourage you to cleanse, moisturize, exfoliate and target problem areas. I used to do professional makeup, mostly for weddings, […]
New Year, New You…
As and Indianapolis Fashion Stylist, I encourage you to do two things this year: Try to stop buying lots of cheap clothing or things you don’t really need just because it’s on sale. I even encourage you to try not shopping for a month, take stock of your closet and clean it out… Then shop. […]

Anyway, I do like to buy something personalized that will last–such as a monogram necklace or trinket. I love Red […]
Vests that Flatter Your Figure
Vests are all the range. I searched on Nordstrom.com, and there were more than 100 to choose from. As we talked about in our last post, trends don’t always flatter us, and we have to keep in mind our figure types. I am a bigger on the bottom figure, so when I look for a […]
What I am loving now…
Good morning, fashionistas…happy weekend, Saturday, and all the rest. I am now back from my 9-day class in the fashion capitol of New York City. I stayed right near fashion avenue, and it was amazing to be in the heart of it all in the world of clothing, designers, personal styling, and you name it. […]
Pop of Color Make a Difference
While some stylists don’t agree, I think wearing the right colors is just as important as the clothing cut and fit. For instance, many people don’t look good in black…it drains the colors from your face. Navy or Royal Blue are much better options. Case in point: Amy Schumer. Her stylist knows color and uses […]
How to Wear Flares! 3 Rules to Get it Right
Not since the debut of the skinny jean has a fashion silhouette created so much intrigue! 70’s-inspired flared jeans, and their cousins culottes and wide-leg trousers, have been creeping into stores over the past year or so, and this fall, they’re everywhere. But since they’re literally the opposite of what women have been wearing for […]
