Whether you’re currently in the market for a new job or a new opportunity at your current company, you should always have a go-to interview outfit cleaned and ready to wear. If you work as a first grade teacher, that outfit is going to be dramatically different than if you work in a capital management […]
We have seen all kinds of wallets come out of all kinds of purses — giant wallets out of tiny purses and huge purses that are carrying a tiny wallet. While I do not much care for clothing shopping, I do love a good purse and wallet browsing. I am currently carrying a relatively small […]
I’ve recently been diagnosed with chronic inflammation of both my lower back and some of the tendons in my feet. This does not bode well for any stilettos in my closet. While the high heels actually make my feet feel better, they do no favors for my lower back. I’ve been on the hunt for […]

The heat and humidity are here to stay for the next few months, so what are the trends for 2016 summer fashion? From what I can tell, they all seem pretty wearable for those of us who live “normal” lives! Shorts – The biggest trend in this comfortable summertime staple is the frayed denim look. […]
Now, of course, this all depends on where you live (i.e., how bad your summer climate will be), where you work (at a bank or at an advertising agency), and what dress code policies are enforced for your organization (open-toed sandals, sleeveless, hosiery, etc.) Not to mention whether your place of business keeps the air […]
We’ve discussed having a go-to makeup look for those mornings when you are too busy or running late, but what about the rest of the look? Yes, we have to be clothed when we leave the house!
