Do you hate bathing suit shopping? Bathing suit shopping is not fun for many women. Most of us have our body image issues and as we age they may become worse. I wish I had the magic fix, sorry I don't.

Read MoreThis time of year we often get invited to more weddings than usual. And one of the first questions is what to wear? Here are some general tips and guidelines that may be helpful.
Where is the location of the wedding?

Answer: Trends
OMG 80 degrees yesterday, Spring has officially sprung!
As always, I like to update you on what the new trends of the season are, so you can be informed, which if any, you would like to add to your wardrobe.
How do you know when a trend has gone out of style?
I once gave a live webinar where someone asked me this question. Although I think I gave a pretty decent answer on the spot, it made me really think about it some more after.
I recently shared with you how to accessorize by mood or theme.
I got great feedback that it was very helpful, and wantedto expand on the lesson to share with you how to best accessorize if you are wearing a print.
It is a pretty simple, yet effective strategy ...you ready for it?
Do you love to shop, but frankly you are not that good at it?
Maybe you pick up a piece here because you are "in the mood" and another there because it is on super-sale. There is no rhyme, reason or intention for your purchases and you don't even know what will work with your wardrobe.
If you are anything like my client Faith, you have a closet full of clothes, bags and accessories in every color that can mix and match into great outfits, but you don't really know how to put it all together. HELP!!!
And you really don't want to go out and spend money on a new outfit.
Or you just got invited last minute to an event and have nothing to wear.
Have no fear, I can help you easily and inexpensively transform your day wardrobe into holiday attire!
It is a simple way to make your outfits more stylized. Use the 3 piece rule when you have a basic top and basic bottom. If you have a basic dress, it will become the 2 piece rule. This rule does not apply to ornate, highly designed items.
Read MoreYou can never have too much closet space, am I right?
Especially in NYC, we just don't have the kind of space that our suburban friends have.
What to do? Well yes, first, I am going to recommend getting rid of all the clutter you don't need, but that is a whole other newsletter. Here I am going to tell you the best ways to physically organize your closet to best utilize the space and see everything you have. (And note to suburban friends you should still do this too.)
Although the weather will probably still be warm for a while, once it is after labor day, I still get that "back to school" mentality. The change of seasons, cool breeze in the air, makes it time to start thinking about what type of items to infuse in your fall wardrobe. Think of this change of seasons like a fresh start, similar to new years.
Read MoreShopping is a sport for me. I love to find extra markdowns and get the best price. Last month I bought a denim skirt at Banana Republic, originally $76 and I paid $4.20. This is not the first time I have found great deals either.
Read MoreAs the summer continues, I have been noticing more and more that women often automatically put everything back to black as a go-to color that supposedly "goes with everything."
Although this isn't on the official "fashion don't list", I am here to tell you that there are better choices which will instantly make your outfit look more cohesive and stylized.

1) Try out some fun clothing. Maybe a trend or two. Summer clothing is generally a smaller investment than winter clothing. Think a fun tank or dress is less expensive than a winter coat.

What are the top reasons your closets are a mess?

Which is your reason?
Read MoreLast weekend I went to my high school reunion. My high school friends knew that I was the go-to person to figure out what to wear to this event.
This was a tricky one, I will admit. The event started at the school from 3-6 (afternoon event) and then my class was having a dinner after (evening event).
Yes, closet paralysis is a common problem for many women. There are so many factors to take into account. Some women may be paralyzed by one of these factors and for others it is many factors combined, or different ones on a given day.
