Working at Home in Style and Comfort!
Many of us still work from home– I learn this as I continue to work with clients from Indianapolis and beyond. Although this “perk” may give us an extra few minutes of sleep in the morning, you still have to get up and put on some clothes. Even as an Indianapolis Image Consultant, I understand […]
How does a Trend Happen?
It can often be difficult to keep up with the ever-changing trends in the world of fashion. Now more than ever each season brings a fresh set of new trends that you are now expected to follow. But how do these trends build the tracking to take off and become worldwide sensations? For example, who […]
The Pros and Cons of Pockets
Pockets are one of those extras that often surfaces in my work as a Carmel Personal Shopper for both men and women. It’s interesting, isn’t it? Vanessa Friedman, in her NYT column, “Here to Help”, recently wrote about pockets. A reader wrote in and said many of her athleisure pants (joggers etc,) did not have pockets. […]
Simple Ways to Stand Out While Working at Home
We’ve all had this experience: We open our closet, look in and think, “what am I possibly going to wear today?” At times, even I think that. Although it’s much easier now that I know how to dress and put outfits together. If you are one of many, many people working at home, this discussion […]
Accessories and How they Pump Up an Outfit
Many of us don’t put that much thought into our accessories. If you’re on the fence about pairing a necklace with an otherwise plain, crewneck sweater.

You can try layering your favorite jacket over a frilly blouse or breaking out a pair of booties with your favorite […]
Finding your “Look!”
During COVID-19, I had some time on my hands, as did many of my fellow image consultants. We had a couple of Zoom meetings to discuss business, whether we were doing it, how we were doing it, and how we were possibly working in the future. It was fascinating and a great time of inflection. […]
Make it a Happy New Year!
Hello Indianapolis Fashionistas, This will go out between two holidays, so I am giving myself a break and doing a lighter topic. We are also moving next week — in the same zip code — but nonetheless all the work, joy, etc., of a new home. Since I am an Indianapolis Personal Stylist, not an interior […]
The Parable of the Five Scarves
Hello Indianapolis Fashionistas, As I had mentioned before — I am not going to give you tips on what to buy people for Christmas — beyond my gift certificates, LOL!! Tongue in cheek — what I’d like to talk about in this blog is a philosophy about how you buy — a principle that you […]
Ho, Ho Ho…Merry Christmas…More on Gifting
Hello Indianapolis Fashionistas, The holiday is coming closer, and if you’re not done with your Christmas shopping. Don’t panic. There’s always Amazon. LOL. Anyway, more about finding the perfect gift. I always think that the perfect gift is finding the item someone really wants but would never buyer him or herself. That can be a […]
