Friday Frocks: White Nights

By |May 31st, 2013|Friday Frocks|

We’ve passed that fashion milestone known as Memorial Day, which traditionally signals the ol’ “go ahead” for wearing white (we know that’s somewhat outdated, but in the off chance you’re a traditionalist…).  The only time of year a little white dress can trump the little black dress, other than your wedding day or perhaps the Oscars, is from June until late August.  So, get your faux glow on and slip into something lighter and whiter to create your own white night.

Setting the Mood: Wine Time

By |September 11th, 2012|Setting the Mood|

fall 2012 color trendsIf yesterday’s cold spell didn’t confirm that it’s officially fall, then I’m not sure what does.  Oh, right, the return of pumpkin spiced lattes at Starbucks.  The impending frost bite is most certainly on its merry little way and it’s high time you update your autumn wardrobe with this fall’s favored color.  Some call it burgundy.  Some call it oxblood.  I’d like to keep things simple and just stick to calling it wine.  Why shouldn’t my closet reflect my favorite beverage?  (I drink it for the antioxidants, people).  The look can be achieved from head to toe tonal or simply incorporated with a well placed resveratrol rich accessory.
