I am a sucker for JCrew's excursion vest and have been for years. I still remember using it in Boston on clients over 8 years ago! I have owned a black version for probably 7 years and a few years ago picked up a shiny navy version on clearance. Both are constants in my wardrobe as I am always running in and out of places and love having some warmth on my core, while still being able to flail around without a jacket (I am a big hand talker if you have never met me in perso

As a wardrobe consultant, I feel like I am constantly trying to curate my personal style. A recent experience has led to further exploration of this fashion journey. A friend of mine reached out with news of working for a company called House of Colour. She trained to start up her own House of Colour business and was excited to share her expertise with me. Now, I have to be completely honest. In the past I have had clients who have tried getting their colors done and ofte

I thought this week I would give a little preview into my day to day casual style. I LOVE being comfy, so every outfit I put together reflects that. On my off days, it is even more key, including being kid friendly (though I find the older I get, I don't really have things for kid/non-kid because if it isn't comfy enough to wear on a kid day, I don't wear it on work days either!). This is a look I strive to achieve each day; interesting, comfortable, but not "too" out there

What it is: Ann Taylor's Ankle Pant in Cotton Twill Where I bought it: Ann Taylor Cost: $89.00 How I will wear it: This week I stood among a group of women, wearing some black ankle pants that I'd had for some time; I hadn't worn them for awhile but, assumed they still fit. As the evening went on, I could feel that the fabric on the back of my legs loosening and stretching, forming wrinkles on the back of my thighs. This is a look I direct my clients away from. I became se

What: J.Crew Ribbed Henley With Three-Quarter Sleeve Price: $49.50 (currently on sale for $16.49) Why: Everyone needs to have their basics with a wardrobe. To me, this is a great basic for fall. I also encourage a majority of my clients to incorporate more white in their closet, as it is the least popular to purchase. However, it tends to be fantastic on many of us. It brightens our appearances and just makes for a fresh look. Most times, people are concerned about stain

Fall Layering is Back! I am absolutely loving the Fall weather. I have pulled out my sweaters and topper coats and booties. I packed away my shorts and tanks and summer dresses. I'm ready for leaves to fall and the smells of bonfires. This is my favorite time of the year to shop. Summer is relaxing and laid back but, fashions are much more fun in the Fall with layering pieces and textures and color. The stores are full of the Fall styles, now. We are seeing lots of anim

Whenever fall rolls around, I am always scrambling big time for nude fishnets. They are something none of my clients have in their closets, but that every woman needs, especially now that we are back in tights season. If you wear any skirt or dresses, they are an absolute must-have. Black opaque tights work great with a lot of items, sheer black works some of the time. But with a nude fishnet regardless of if you are going super dressy or trying to dress something down the
