Fashionable Quotes / www.vanessahwood.com

As I reflect on my childhood, I don’t recall ever really being a fashionista, even though I have loved fashion for as long as I can remember. I was more of a jeans and t-shirt kind of girl, a real “tomboy”. Of course, like everyone else at one point in their life, my love for fashion has blossomed into a full-fledged admiration of all things fashion. So I’d like to pass along some fashionable quotes from some really fabulous fashion insiders, including Anna Wintour, Christian Louboutin, and the great late Alexander McQueen. “Just be true to yourself, and listen as […]

Wish List Wednesday: Nasty Gal

June 1, 2016 No Comments

I wear scrubs five days a week, so on the weekends, I tend to wear more dresses or skirts and shirt combos. I like to think that as a woman in my early 40s, I am trendy and stylish. Nasty Gal has a lot of cute clothes, just not a lot that I, as a 43-year-old woman, would wear. It seems that they are geared toward the Millennial generation or the more trendy and younger generations. However, I did find a few items that I would wear. I really like the long button-down maxi skirt and the wrap dress. Those […]

What I’m Loving… Maxi Dresses

July 9, 2015 No Comments

I love the look of a stylish maxi dress, but have not dipped my toe into purchasing one until just recently. I bought my first maxi dress at Target and I love it! It’s a black and white striped tank style maxi. I got it on sale, and with my coupon from the Cartwheel for Target app, I snagged it for $7.32! What a bargain! I can style it with my denim jacket, with a black knit sweater, with a white cardigan, or simply wear it as-is. So now that I have my first maxi dress, I decided to peruse […]

“What I do, Coco would have hated. The label has an image and it’s up to me to update it. I do what she never did. I had to find my mark. I had to go from what Chanel was to what it should be.” – Karl Lagerfeld on Coco Chanel Looking at the Fall 2014 Chanel collection, whether it be from the resort collection or the haute couture collection, the details are magnificent.

My Kind of Style

January 4, 2013 No Comments

I don’t have Victoria Beckham’s budget for fashion, but like her, I find it’s better to be stylish than to be fashionable. Fashion trends change all the time, but style – true style – never changes! Here are some put-together fashion finds that I’m digging right now. These photos are from Pinterest, but the original source is listed under each photo, but I’d like to say Thank You to Polyvore, Fashion Worship, and The High Heeled Hostess for sharing such awesome and stylish fashion finds! I have been wanting a pair of brown boots and these are gorgeous! I also like the grey cowl-neck sweater! […]
