Women of Style: Stylish Bloggers / www.vanessahwood.com

The late, great Karl Lagerfeld has been credited with saying, “Sweatpants are a sign of defeat. You lost control of your life so you bought some sweatpants.” As I scrolled through Instagram this past weekend, I saw a dozen or so memes about when it would be acceptable to change from your daytime sweats into your nighttime sweats. Because of this somewhat lackadaisical attitude towards “getting up and getting dressed”, I felt inspired to feature 13 stylish bloggers in this month’s edition of “Women of Style”. I figured we could all use some fashion inspiration, so put on your best […]

Women of Style: Breast Cancer Survivors

October 10, 2018 No Comments

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and as a tribute to the beautiful women around the world either newly diagnosed, currently being treated for, or surviving breast cancer, I wanted to put a spotlight on some amazing celebrities who have been diagnosed with breast cancer. Some of these women you may recognize and already know that they were diagnosed with breast cancer, but others you may not recognize. Almost all of these women have been vocal about their fight with breast cancer and have encouraged women {especially those age 40 and above} to get annual mammograms. {Images borrowed from HealthLine} […]

Women of Style: JHUD and Miley

October 18, 2017 No Comments

I have been watching The Voice on NBC and I am totally mesmerized by Jennifer Hudson and Miley Cyrus. Not only are these two young women vocal powerhouses, but they are both beautiful and have their own unique style. I typically only spotlight one woman in this monthly “Woman of Style” feature, except for when I featured my favorite looks from the Oscars and the Emmys. I know these two ladies may be a mismatched pair for this “Woman of Style” feature, but their passion for both their music and their fashion make them perfect to be featured together as this month’s […]

Women of Style: Oscars Edition

March 1, 2017 2 Comments

On Sunday many of my favorite actresses walk the Red Carpet on their way to the 89th Academy Awards show and looked absolutely stunning. I was eager to wrote a post recapping the Oscars fashion, but decided to wait and write one combined “Women of Style” piece, kind of like I did for the Emmys. So instead of highlighting the Oscars style of just one woman, I thought I’d spotlight the beautiful style of 15 women. In my opinion, these women showcased their personal style beautifully. I wrote a post, which came out on Sunday morning, looking back at some of my […]
