The Recap And Fashion Drama of The Real Housewives Of Dallas Season 1: Ep 5
One thing is for sure, I don’t think I could live in Dallas. The fashion is as loud as the women! OK, that is probably a gross generalization, but this show is NOT helping my opinion of Dallas. The word ‘class’ starts flying right out of the gate this episode where the fight from last week rages on. Hint, if you use the word “class,” chances are you haven’t got any.
Hot Accessory Trend Alert: Reapproach The Silk Floral Brooch
Remember when Carrie wore silk flower pins on Sex And The City and you had to have one – or several? Well hopefully you kept them, because according to Gucci (who we look to lately for fashion inspiration as they are back on track since Alessandro Michele took over of the helm this past year), silk floral pins are the must have trend of the season. Florals are everywhere this season and even on Gucci handbags (you kinda want one too, right?). So leave it to the trendsetting brand to bring the floral brooch back. It wasn’t old-ladyish when Carrie wore it in the 90’s and it doesn’t have to be now either.
All Aboard the Lip Stain Train
I never thought I’d like matte lipstick stains because I assumed they’d be drying and I detest my lips feeling dry. In fact, if my lips don’t feel glossy I’m uncomfortable. Hell, I keep gloss on my nightstand. However, glossy lips tend to bleed. So when I attended The Makeup Show in NYC this past weekend, I learned to give matte lip gloss stains a second chance. I’m glad I did! They have come a long way.
Celebrity Style Steal: Kerry Washington Gives Us Flowers
Kerry Washington gave a very public baby announcement at this past Monday’s Met Gala. With Mother’s Day on Sunday here is an easy-to-wear floral ensemble that can be worn for brunch or dinner. I love a great floral print! You can go either way: bold or subtle. Washington opted for very bold and bright and this Teri Jon by Rickie Freeman Floral Print dress fits the bill.
What To Wear On A Gray Day In May
What’s the best thing about fashion over 40? You already own a pair of ankle crop flare jeans in your closet … from the year 2000! However, the worst part is figuring out what to wear to stay on trend but not look silly for your age. Especially when the season is changing and you may have a bit of fashion dread about the warmer weather. Start by wearing pieces that are comfortable and fit well. Lately I find oversized pieces to be a great solution to this dilemma!
