There are multiple ways to send out invitations these days. People use e-vites, facebook posts, tweets, etc. I suppose these types of invites are effective and cost free. However, I still prefer the classic paper invitation. I think it provides insight into the person who sent it and hints at what type of party to expect. No matter which type … Read More
Tracy Clifford’s Style
What should I wear today?
Yesterday was one of the most beautiful days Chicago has seen in a while. The bikers were out, the lake front was crowded and Rush street was full of outdoor seating. Judging by what people were wearing it could have been 80 degrees or below zero! I saw some women in shorts and dresses who … Read More
Work Attire?
Oh, work attire. Awesome! That means I can just run over for a quick drink in my boyfriend’s hoodie and my favorite grey Lululemon sweats. I mean the invite does say work attire, and that is what I work in all day. Right? No. Wrong. Dead Wrong. Regardless of popular opinion, the concept of right … Read More

Please don’t call PETA!
I was very impressed with Norisol Ferarri who is an up and coming designer. Her collection is primarily an assortment of vests, coats and jackets made of exquisite skins. The silhouettes are beautiful and the strategically placed pockets are very convenient. She occasionally incorporates a harness in place of a belt to create a very edgy and fashion forward … Read More
Y-3 Now and Then
Athletic, sporty clothes were not a part of the fashion world that I became fully immersed in during the 90’s. Then came Y-3. The line allowed us to run errands in sweats or go to and from the gym while still looking put together. Y-3 provides an unbelievable level of comfort while still allowing us to look chic – thank you Yohji! I have worn … Read More
