The cross body hand bag: It’s been around for a few seasons, and more recently, it’s been quietly gaining ground over the top handle or hobo to become this season’s standout style. You sling it over your shoulder, or wear it diagonally across your chest, so the bag falls to the other hip (hence the [...]

First of September–sigh. I know I’ve been lamenting lately about the end of summer, but come on, what’s not to love? Well, fall has its moments too, and I do crave those crisp fall days when the weather is a bit on the chill side, but sunny and colorful. I also look forward to wearing [...]

It’s not often that you hear about controversial clothing from retail behemoths–well not since the ol’ Old Navy punctuation debacle of August 2011. But today JC Penney pulled a controversial girls’ t-shirt off its online “shelves” because of complaints that the t-shirt is sexist. The shirt reads “I’m too pretty to do homework so [...]

It’s about this time that I start to think about transition dressing.

I’ll just say it: I really, really like real fur. I know not everyone does, though, a fact becomes especially apparent when someone compliments my (secondhand) fur jacket, oohs and ahs while stroking the sleeve, asks if it’s real and then recoils in horror when I tell them it is. Oh, well.
Ironically, I’ve always eschewed fake [...]

I, like Lisa, am loving this season’s sparkle-and-shine sequin trend. I usually think of sequins for tops or skirts, so it was by accident that I stumbled on these two pairs of fab sequin shorts. Sequins on bottom? Why not?! These two lovely looks are a fantastic, unexpected way to don the trend, and will [...]
