Peplums, The Sartorial Cure For Muffin Top

Thumbnail image for Peplums, The Sartorial Cure For Muffin Top January 9, 2013

I’ve been carrying my pouch (aka muffin top) for most of my adult life. It has generated many “are you expecting questions” and is the reason why I recently started a collection of girdles and other stretchy support under things to help keep the pudge at bay.  This peplum top seems to be the  kryptonite [...]

New Year’s Eve Style Inspiration

December 27, 2012

Please don’t tell me that you are planning to spend another New Year’s Eve wrapped up under your blankets with your furry friend Snookums by your side. Between the economy, divisive elections, and national tragedies, there is no denying that 2012 was a super difficult year (well, at least it was for me.)  But we made [...]

Make Mint Fresh Again For Winter

Thumbnail image for Make Mint Fresh Again For Winter December 3, 2012

My hope is to inspire you to make spring’s most popular color fresh again for winter. Admittedly I didn’t pay a lot for this dress, but it would have defeated the purpose and concept of cost per wear if I allowed it to continue to hang in my closet without taking it for another wear. [...]

New To My Closet: Gray Taffetta, Maxi Skirt

Welcome to my closet lovely, gray, taffetta, maxi skirt.  You take my breath away both with your beauty and your false size. Because although your size tag says you are a 12, that stifling feeling around my waist says you are not. But nonetheless, once I shed this months water weight you will be sliding [...]

What I Wore: Pretty In Pink

Thumbnail image for What I Wore: Pretty In Pink November 4, 2012

I am a little behind on blog posts, but I guess it’s better late than never.  This is  what I wore to the opening of  Maggie Gardner’s, Gardner’s House event here in Connecticut a few weeks ago.  By the way, I think fuchsia (magenta) is a better pink hue for grown women than its pastel [...]

We The Kings Rocks Out at Macy’s My Style Lab

October 31, 2012

I can’t believe that I managed to pass my teen years without as much experiencing the thrill of a boy band crush.  This also meant that I was never able to experience the excitement of a boy band concert with hundreds of my peers, screaming and frothing at the mouth at my unattainable love interest. [...]

What I Wore: Lace Blouse and Red Pants For Nigel Ramsay’s Event

October 29, 2012

While I await the passage of this “frankenstorm,” I just wanted to do a quick post to share a few photos from Saturday’s Nigel Ramsay fall 2012 presentation and Breast Cancer Benefit. Along with answering millions of questions, I also helped back stage with ushering the models out during the show.  These no iron, can’t ever [...]

What To Wear To A Fall Wedding

A wedding is exactly what my family needed to distract us from the stress and the sadness of coping with a very sick relative. On Saturday, my beautiful cousin married her long time boyfriend in a traditional church ceremony here in Connecticut.  I didn’t make it to the church (lots of running around in the [...]

Hartford, Connecticut Fashion and Beauty Event

September 17, 2012

I misspoke a little during last week’s #blogtrends chat on twitter.  I was having big city envy (there I admit it) and ended up tweeting out, for the chat participants and the world to see, some rather harsh criticism regarding fashion or actually lack of it (resources, events) in this city.  While we certainly don’t [...]

Zebra Print Sheath Pencil Dress and Faux Leather Vest

Thumbnail image for Zebra Print Sheath Pencil Dress and Faux Leather Vest September 10, 2012

For the second day of the IFB conference I wanted to wear something that was a combination of classic and edgy.  I love the fact that this sheath dress had this bold zebra  black and white graphic print and that the fabric was shiny.  I added the leather vest mainly because I think it looks [...]
