Look for Less: Polished and Practical

By Kirsten|December 4th, 2011|Look for Less, Why Did You Wear That?|

It sorta seems like life went ahead and decided to cram as much as possible into the last few months of the year. Sort of like it forgot and then was like, “Oh crap! We gotta do all this.” So, that keeps ladies like you and me pretty busy. In between all of the end of year festivities, we still need to find time to run those never ending errands. They sure don’t take a holiday, do they? This is where that whole “fashion vs function” argument comes into play. Is it ever possible to be both? These three celebrities prove that it is, in fact, feasible to be both polished and practical while running errands.

Why Did You Wear That: Morning Glory

By Kirsten|November 15th, 2011|Personal Style, Why Did You Wear That?|

Ever have one of those days where you just don’t want to get out of bed? You’d rather just stay in your jammies and spend the day watching garbage daytime TV and taking all your meals in bed? Oh, that’s everyday? Yeah, me too. Sadly, mama’s gotta pay the bills… which, of course, would require one to actually pry herself from those 1200 thread count sheets and take part in normal human behavior and social activities. Oh well… doesn’t mean you can’t be comfortable. As a matter of fact, I’d like to encourage you to wear your nightgown from your bedroom right on downtown.

Slip a soft sweater over your silky nightie. Accessorize with chunky gold accessories, a pop of bright eye makeup (so you don’t still look like you’re sleeping), and work appropriate oxfords. While it may not be the day you dreamt of, at least you will look dreamy.
