Profile

With three young boys, shopping can be a bit difficult. But hey, I am still only 28, and want to be fashionable, so I have found the best solution possible - hiring a young babysitter to either come with me and give me a thumbs up (or down) on the outfits I choose or watching the boys while I take an afternoon for myself. The benefit of having a whole crew with me is that at times I can persuade the shop owner to give me discount just to get me out of the store!

To bother, or not to bother

My question is, do celebrities want to be bothered when you see them walking down the road or boarding an airplane or shopping for groceries? I guess I always feel sorry for people who can’t just be themselves but he thinks celebs just live for the attention. What do you think?

ZÜCA!

I was recently looking for carry-on luggage for my kids and came across the most unique bags! I needed something that small children could tote through the airport, so the first requirement was that it had wheels. It also had to be able to hold enough for a week-long trip to grandma’s house.

Shoe Karma

A few of my friends were getting together one evening and I offered to give a friend a lift. When I arrived at her house, a beautiful pair of polka dot pumps were waiting for me at the door. “Do you think you could wear these? They’re adorable, but they are a little snug,” Shaleen explained. They were adorable and they fit like a glove.

Is that scent, Obsession?

I recently fell in love… with a swimsuit. It was love at first sight. I had been searching for over a year to find a suit that is both cute and sexy without being too revealing or unflattering - a mighty tall order for half of a yard of spandex.
Sure, I had flings with [...]

Practicality and Sensibility

It’s a time of practicality and sensibility. As I peruse the pages of the Nordstom and Neiman catalogs, I get pangs of desire and disgust.

Don’t be a Heel

I must admit that I am addicted to shoes that make me taller. It has gotten so bad that when I am not wearing shoes, my husband or my sister will make a comment like, “You look really short today for some reason!”

Summer Trends

Depeche Mode is going on tour. GI Joe, Terminator, Star Trek, and Transformers are all in or coming to a theater near you. It’s no wonder some of our favorite fashion hits of the 80s are edging their way back into style. Are you a fan of mini florals and ruffles? Are you so over low-waisted jeans? This may just be your season.

Cocktail Rings

Cocktail rings can be worn to make you feel fancy when you otherwise would not. What a simple way to spice up an outfit or dress up an everyday dress!

Making Your Wardrobe Work for You

Wouldn’t it be great if we could all do the Jane Jetson and walk into some chamber and emerge with the perfect outfit every time? Actually, come to think of it, she usually wore the same thing every day, and that’s no fun at all! But I digress…

style vs. fashion

It always amazes me that one woman can wear a dress and look smashing and another woman can wear the same dress and end up on the Worst Dressed list.
