It’s that time again, where I feature a dress form outfit. I’m so ready for Summer that I’m already planning several outfits (trying them out on my dress form first) to wear on date nights with my hubs. If you took a look in my closet, you’d see mostly black and gray, but a few years ago I decided to step out of my comfort zone and get a pair of electric blue jeans. I have featured these jeans on my dress form before, and every time I wear them, I feel sassy. I bought this Juicy Couture sleeveless top […]
Steal Her Style: Nina Garcia
As long as I can remember, Nina Garcia has always had amazing style. She has been in the fashion industry since the early 1980s, but she walked into my life in 2005 as a judge on Project Runway. She recently left Marie Claire where she was the Creative Director, and stepped into the Editor-In-Chief position at ELLE magazine. Nina authored four books: The Little Black Book of Style, The One Hundred: A Guide to the Pieces Every Stylish Woman Must Own, The Style Strategy, and Nina Garcia’s Look Book. For this particular “Steal Her Style”, I had a difficult time trying to decide which of Nina’s looks […]

Dress Form Outfit: Ready for Summer
Who’s ready for summer, besides me! The weather was so nice this past week that I drove home with the top down on my car the other day. Then when I got home, I took my dress form outfit outside, along with a few outfits, because I wanted to take advantage the warm breeze and what was left of the amazing sun before it set behind the horizon. It just seems like the weather can’t make up it’s mind as to weather it wants to be warm or cold, or whether it wants to be sunshiny or rainy (or in […]
Steal Her Style: Cameron Diaz
Cameron Diaz has such a classic style that is a cool mix of boho chic and modern sexiness. She can wear a wide array of styles, from a body-con dress to a flowy summer dress, or from athletic wear to jeans and a t-shirt. She has such a natural beauty that allows her to wear a anything with such ease and grace. When interviewed for Harper’s Bazaar a couple of years ago, Cameron was asked if she believes in “dressing your age”. “I do, actually. But everybody’s age is different, and by that I mean that even when you’re a certain […]
