  • FROM DARK TO LIGHT

    FIRST, THE DARK SIDE The Lines in this blouse are so slimming! In July, I wrote about those ladies who are addicted to black. You know the ones who feel really comfortable in a cave or sleeping without a light on at night, because their closets look the same…pitch black, devoid of color. Seriously, many…

  • Lovin’ The Secret Life

    My secret life as a fashion guru has been such fun…as I pick up Whataburger wrappers…Sonic cups…and, of course, gum from the tables in my room, I only have to smile to myself as I plan the next fashion intervention.  Since I became a fashion blogger and Gigi’s official stylist, I receive great joy from…

  • PERMISSION GRANTED: ALL PUDDLE SPASHING ALLOWED!

    Who would have thought that the galoshes from our past would now be a fashion statement, but in a never-miss-a-style- opportunity mode, designers have brought them back in a big way.  I just returned from four straight days of rain in the Texas Hill Country and my new rain boots were stylish, dry, and fun…fun…

  • THAT PRETTY WOMAN FEEL

         Fall fashion 2010 is by far my favorite season since I began my style journey! All my favorites are finally in…except, of course, the oversized- t shirt- with- pajama bottom- look!! For example, I love the pointy toed flat…it is comfortable and elongates the leg! Now, InStyle Magazine says they are in! I like…

  • BLAST FROM THE PAST

    Remember headbands, ladies??  For me it conjures up moments of wincing as boys grabbed those horrid plastic headbands, mostly Pepto-Bismal pink,  from my locks and broke them into thousands of pieces.  The 70s brought the head wraps which I confess I resort to on the days in between stylist appointments when the gray skunk is…

  • HOT FLASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Wal-Mart solved several of my problems today! School spirit shirts are notoriously frumpy or too small…rarely is there an in-between. These frumpy, shrunken shirts are also usually over priced by Booster Clubs attempting to fund the school athletic program. Now, I don’t mind the fundraising if the product is good. But, today these stylish polos…
