  Saturday, August 16th, 2008

  When putting together a wardrobe, whether it be for work, parties, casual events, daytime wear or for exercise, the simplest is always the best. Find what you’re comfortable in and stick with it.

• Rules of Dressing

  Saturday, August 16th, 2008

  This is what I feel about rules when it comes to how to dress…just throw out the book and start fresh. There are no real rules. Of course, if you work in an office or hold a position where certain codes of behavior and appearance are necessary, you cannot show up to your job in [...]

  Saturday, August 16th, 2008
