Update your sleepytime wardrobe

So I've been living in the same pajama pants for about, oh, 5 years now. Maybe (probably?) longer. They were covered in paint, ripped, fraying around the elastic band, etc., which all just screams ATTRACTIVE, doesn't it? Yeah, no. I thought it high time for an update. Well, what REALLY … [Read more...]

Florals: Yay or Nay? Both.

I know it's spring, but am I the only one totally overwhelmed by the cacophony of floral prints that have taken over dresses, skirts, swimsuits, runways, and yes, even bras?? (Available in "night floral". Ugh.) Floral prints can look adorable on pajamas. Or on little girls. Sometimes even on … [Read more...]

I Flip, I Flop

Despite the fact that I live in Indiana (which only really got into summer temps yesterday), I am a flip-flop queen. If it has 2 straps and looks like a podiatrist's nightmare - I love it. Guaranteed. The thing is - not all flip flops are created equally. In fact, until you've walked … [Read more...]

You Raise Me Up

Summer is just about here, and that means tank tops and halters, tissue tees and all kinds of other cute tops. We talked a few weeks ago about how to dress a larger bust. Looking good on top is all about making the right choices, and there is another important one that you need to make, … [Read more...]

The Perfect Summer Dress

I don't know what it is, but ever since I hit my mid-30s, I can't find a single pair of shorts that fit me properly. This little turn of events has been quite an issue because I live on the surface of the sun in Georgia. Summers here are hot. When the temperature rises, a girl needs to keep … [Read more...]

Graduation Dress Shopping

The day has finally come. My husband graduates from law school tomorrow and that means I claim victory over his legal-textbook mistress. He is mine! No more late nights at the library to write memos and notes and briefs (all of which, despite appearances, are actually quite lengthy). So how do … [Read more...]

Dressing Down The Girls

For gals with more than enough "on top", finding cute and flattering clothes can be difficult. I speak from experience: I'm still big on top, but I used to be even bigger before I had a breast reduction. I've had years of experience learning how to downplay the girls. Picking the right cut and … [Read more...]

Let’s Talk About P.J.s…

Have you ever noticed how we spend a good chunk of time dressing for people we don't know that well or don't see regularly? Maybe it's just me, but (for the most part) when I go to the grocery store, I try to look relatively put together. When I go to Bible study, I make sure I put on a little … [Read more...]

Rompers!

Just like everything else about the 80s, rompers have made a comeback. They've actually been around again for a few years but are just now getting mainstream. What I like about the romper is that it can be casual or dressy, depending on the occasion. Its all about how you … [Read more...]
