It’s Time To Restyle Your Closet For Fall

One good thing about getting older is you know what you like and you know what you will wear. Every day I tend to wear a “uniform” that can go from the office to evenings to weekends. And each season I try to update my look to include a few new trends I see, adore and know can work with my standbys or basics I wear year after year. Since fall is finally here it’s time to switch out my closet and revamp my uniform for the cooler days ahead. If I plan this correctly, I will be able to mix up the pieces so my outfits will look different and I won’t get bored either. On the other hand, I will be able to get dressed quickly (even when I am half asleep) and be ready for anything each day

Whether it was intentional or subliminal perhaps the New York designers were inspired by these legendary looks

Hot (And Humid) Fall Fashion: Help! What Do I Wear?

It’s September and the kids are back in school, summer work hours are over and the stores are chock full of new fall fashion! But it’s 200 degrees out (yes, really!) but it doesn’t quite look right to wear white sandals, eyelet, summer neon colors and Lilly Pulitzer prints. This kind of weather may hold on through October, too! So what are we supposed to wear?

Ring My Bell (Sleeves)!

Here’s a trend we noticed shaping up in a big way for fall 16: bell sleeves! It’s fun, it’s flirty, it’s dramatic and it’s a little retro (does the look ring a bell?)
