There is no question that Hollywood has a huge influence on society. We are all accustomed to big blockbuster hits being used to promote merchandise. Batman, Spiderman and Harry Potter are three main examples that stand out in my mind. The number of toys, video games, books, and DVD sets that relate to these movies … Read More

Cleaning Out My Closet
I am actually practicing what I preach today by cleaning out my closet for Fall. It is always easy for me to tell clients what they should eliminate, because I know in my head what is not worth keeping and have no sentimental attachment to anything. However, that is not the case when I am … Read More
Winter 15
We have all heard of the “Freshman 15”. Otherwise known as the dreaded weight one tends to put on while embarking on the joy of late night eating and drinking the first year of college. As an adult living in the Midwest, I am beginning to notice a new type of weight gain that I … Read More
Bad Fashion Days
We all have those days when getting dressed does not come as easily as it should. We try on a million tops and nothing looks right with the skirt we want to wear. We cannot figure out which shoe goes with our dress. I don’t feel the need to go on – we have all … Read More

The name is cheesy yet clever in my opinion. I … Read More
My Eyes are going LuLu

I cannot say that I do not fall into this category or deny that LuLu Lemon pants are flattering on most bodies. That being said, I am ready for a change. Every time I walk … Read More
Fall Fashion Time
One of the main fashion themes for Fall 2012 is combining the past with the future. Designers are bringing back trends of the past and updating them to work in the present. The concept of what’s old is new again is definitely the focus this season. For instance, the baroque era was nearly 400 years ago yet it is … Read More
Donna vs. Oscar
I had the pleasure of attending both the Donna Karan and Oscar de la Renta runway shows this week in New York and had two completely different experiences. I saw the Donna Karan show first on Tuesday. It was held in an open space in Chelsea that was surrounded by paparazzi and filled with celebrities. … Read More
