Greetings:
I absolutely love Springtime, however, as fashion/image goes, it's a love/hate season for me. Why? I'm glad that you asked. Because some of us have not quite let winter go and some of us are rushing summer. The following suggestions can be used for Spring and Fall since they occur during both seasons. Please, please, please do not mix seasons,
If you have on Uggs, you should have on a tank top.
If you have on a sweater, you shouldn't have on flip-flops.
If you have on sandals, no pantyhose, (don't believe the "sandal foot" hype on the package)
If you have on pantyhose, you shouldn't have on sandals
Shower shoes should be worn in the shower (enough said)
If you have on white thick socks, you shouldn't have on anything other than sneakers.
Ladies - our hosiery should never be darker than our shoes. If you have black and white shoes, your hosiery should be flesh-tone or light or white.
If it doesn't fit, quit it...because it doesn't flatter.
Fact: According to a study done by the University of Connecticut, first impressions turn out to be 67% accurate. Make a good First Impression w/your Image.
Cheers to you being your personal best !

If it doesn't Flatter...
....Welcome back!
A little hiatus was in order, nonetheless, I'm back with new ideas and creativity.
The title for today's blog came about when I was standing in line at the bank today. Actually, while I was yet on the street on my way to the bank, I stopped to make a phone call and instead of going in the wrong direction I stood there while the call was answered. Coming down the street was a very attractive woman. However, her choice of attire took away from her image. She had very, very thick legs all one size from the thigh down, not shapely at all. She had on a mini dress and a mini trench coat, boots and no hosiery. It was not a good look for her. Low and behold, I get to the bank and who is at the counter the beautiful woman with the poor choice in clothes. All I could think is....that's not very flattering to her. The perfect body is an illusion, it's all in what you wear and how you wear it. Your choices in clothes should be for your body type. There's no such thing as one size fit all. I'm not saying that she shouldn't show her legs at all, but with the (almost) knee high boots and the mini, it brought attention directly to an area that was unflattering because of what she was wearing. On another day in different attire, someone would say that she had nice legs, however, what she was wearing today, unfortunately wasn't flattering at all. If it doesn't flatter, Image does matter!
