So you like suits, eh?
One of the top trends for women's wear this fall is the menswear look, aka schoolboy chic. This look pairs the sharpness of men's lines with the sexy curviness of a womanly silhouette.

Touched by an Angell, Part Deux
Hi fabulites!I am by no means a celebrity reporter, but I did have the opportunity to speak with Ms. Angell Conwell about her style and fashion sense. Angell is so easy to talk to and was so open for a discussion about her style. As much as I wish I could, I couldn't get it all down---plus, I was really enjoying the conversation! I didn't have a recorder, so I will paraphrase and inject direct quotes as best as I wrote them down. So, basically, her responses are as close as possible to what … [Read more...]

High Waisted Jeans Strike Again!
Ok, so I am still a little mixed about the high waisted look. I previously found Eve's look above a little too much for my taste. I have since found similar looks that have been much easier on my fashion palette. You have to understand, since I am a little hippy check, the high waisted look is murky territory for me. I could either look crazy fly or just plain crazy.....Elise NealThen I saw a few pics on the web. Elise Neal's mixture of colors and prints creates a stunning fun and youthful … [Read more...]

MAN DAY: Is your neck really that cold?
Fall is fast upon us, so I might as well (begrudgingly) start writing about fall fashion....but, truth be told, this can be worn year round.... On this MAN DAY, let's discuss the man scarf. Man scarves can add an air of elegance (think silk scarf draped with tuxedo/black tie evening attire); liven your casual look (think patterned wool scarf flung around your neck with tee shirt and denims); or just keep your neck warm. It is very utilitarian. I prefer to see the man-scarf with the Chelsea … [Read more...]
