A Modern Miracle: Cut, Sewn, and Washed in Los Angeles

A Modern Miracle: Cut, Sewn, and Washed in Los Angeles
Any of you gals own a pair of Hello! Skinny Jeans? Are they really the miracle Alex Kuczynski of the NY Times says they are? Alex thinks Dave’s Killer Bread is the best bread she’s ever bought in a supermarket so I’m inclined to think she knows a good thing when she spots it! The photos below certainly suggest the possibility of a miracle, but there’s no telling until you try them on for yourself. Anyone in the know? Hello! DayWash, Barely Boot Cut, $178 Hello!

Twenty Vintage Cuffs for Ten Bucks or Less

Twenty Vintage Cuffs for Ten Bucks or Less
Finding beautiful accessories on the cheap is great. What’s even better though is when that item is vintage (or second-hand, gently-worn, or new-to-you) because nothing “new” had to be manufactured so you could look chic and stylish. Less manufacturing is the greenest and greatest idea since sliced (whole grain) bread and can be extended to cars, home furnishings, and even designer jeans! Thanks to Etsy.com, I’ve found 20 stunning vintage cuffs (big bracelets!) that are priced from $4-10. Okay, one bracelet is $10.99, but it’s a must-have! Silver Tone X Kisses Hinged...

Layer-up With Tees That Give Back

Layer-up With Tees That Give Back
This time of year is all about layering where I live. Why not layer-up with a stylie t-shirt that also gives something back? The ten tees below are all shining examples of just that.  I own a long-sleeved tee from Be Love and a short-sleeved tee from Rain Tees. Both are super soft, fit really well, and the best part? With Be Love, I’m helping support a fantastic peace through nonviolence education program for youth and with Rain Tee, for every tee sold, a child living in endangered rain forest land receives a tree to plant and learns about how they can protect their forests. Find a great tee,...

Twenty Tunics to Turn up the Style and Turn down the Stress (on You and the Environment!)

Twenty Tunics to Turn up the Style and Turn down the Stress (on You and the Environment!)
There is nothing easier when it comes to getting dressed than the tunic. I style people for a living and most of my female clients are like me — they don’t want to dress like a soccer Mom (even though most of us are or were at one time), but don’t want to look “Forever 21″ either. Yuck. The tunic is the perfect middle ground. My go-to look is pairing a tunic with a cute topper like this one from Vince with your favorite skinny jeans like the dry-aged “twiggy” from James and flat, black or grey boots like this stylie pair from New Aura. Grab a cotton scarf and a...

See Every Day as a Chance for a New Year

See Every Day as a Chance for a New Year
Photo courtesy of vinfolio.com Forget January 1st. It’s come and gone anyway so let it go and see every day as a chance for new year. As you experience them, embrace those “low” points where action is needed to live an improved life – the life you desire. No negotiating, no stalling, and no taking better care of yourself in the future. The reason many people make New Year’s resolutions: New Year’s resolutions are a tool for negotiating with ourselves; we want to allow ourselves to have fun, be carefree and enjoy the holidays (or the entire year!) by overindulging in spending,...
