September is the hottest month of summer for me. Makeup seems to slide right off your face, and your hair goes from flat to frizzy in 60 seconds. Your glasses fog up the minute you walk out the door. It’s brutal and a big challenge for many women to dress this time of year. How […]
Summer is an opportune time to wear head-to-toe white — but this monochromatic look doesn’t have to be boring or understated. The key is mixing fabrics or patterns for a rich, elegant effect. And getting a little tan doesn’t hurt, either; your whites will look even brighter. Want a foolproof white ensemble? Pair an eyelet top […]
Summer is synonymous with bright colors. The hues of the blue water, yellow sun and multi-colored flowers are never more vibrant than this time of year — and naturally, our wardrobes follow suit. In stores, you’re bound to see pieces in eye-catching shades like aqua, tangerine, fuchsia and marigold. But this summer, a softer, neutral […]
Do you have a wardrobe that’s bursting at the seams but somehow feel like you have nothing to wear? Then it’s time for that most essential of spring-cleaning tasks: a closet audit. Having an efficient closet saves you time and money (couldn’t we all use more of those?!). Plus, an organized, purposeful wardrobe is kinder […]
Styling a statement outfit isn’t as hard as you may think. Layering a stand-out item over tried-and-true basics is one way to create a head-turning look. This combination works especially well when we aren’t sure what to expect from our Coast climate. This time of year calls for layers, and I like ponchos. They are […]
Have some of your New Year’s resolutions fallen by the wayside? Most do by February, but I hope your style goals haven’t. Revolutionize your look this year by trying something new, wearing a color you haven’t in the past or repurposing a basic in your closet. Take a blazer, for example. Traditionally, it is considered […]
As we transition into a new year, I am taking time to reflect on 2024. It had its ups and downs like most years, but it was full of blessings for which I’m grateful. My style is one thing that will evolve this year. I define it as classic and modern, but I’m willing to […]
You’ve probably heard the phrase, “You must believe to receive.” Like many children, I believed in Santa Claus. The figure I once revered has evolved from a jolly old man into a magical spirit. Faith, family, tithing, doing for others and enjoying the beauty around me are now my priorities this time of year. I […]
The holidays are in full swing, and I hope you’re ready for fun, fellowship and fashion! What’s exciting for me is being with family and friends. There are people I only get to see this time of year, and I treasure every moment with them. We catch up and share funny stories, hugs and laughs. […]
While the weather is enjoyable in the South this time of year, with its warm days and the cool evenings, dressing for it can be a challenge. So, what’s your style solution? Layering! Light layers are key, so make sure you have plenty. Start with a tank, camisole or T- shirt, then layer a blouse […]
