The In Between Time

STYLE TALK- September is the time of year we really start thinking about fall fashions. But in many parts of the country it doesn’t cool off until late October or it is warm year round.
MY RULE IS THIS Don’t be a fashion victim by wearing hot sweaters, heavy jackets and long faux fur lined boots in 70 degrees and above temperatures. It just looks crazy!

STYLE TIPS- It’s all about colors! After Labor Day you want to ease into fall fashions and the best way to do that is by wearing jewel, earth and dark colors like purple, mustard, fuchsia, burgundy, hunter green, rust, burnt orange, browns, black and off white. Also go with the darker prints and basic metallic colors (bronze, silver, gold, pewter and copper). Stick with light weight fabrics plus retire your light color sandals and other shoes and sport your darker color ones. So that you have something to look forward too hold out on wearing your long boots until late October. But if your city is warm year round or you just can’t wait because your boots are just too FIERCE don them with a funky short denim skirt or over your skinny jeans with a cute tee and fabulous NAUGO accessories! Your legs might be warm, but you will look HOT!

TALK - To Bare All or Not & TIPS - Belts


Let me jump right in with my STYLE TALK for this week. It’s getting warm and the coats are coming off and the skin is jumping out! MY QUESTION IS THIS – How much skin should you expose?

MY RULE IS THIS – Never show it all at once. If you are going to wear a halter top with a plunging neckline, then don’t expose your belly ring, or wear a micro mini. If you’re going to wear a micro mini – don’t wear a skimpy t-shirt with your stomach out. And never ever wear a pair of skin tight jeans that show the creases of you underwear or every dimple in your butt! The bottom line is your outfit should spark curiosity in the guys not negative assumptions about you. And it should make the ladies wonder where you got it from.

Can I get some feedback? LADIES do you think I’m being old fashion and prudish? GUYS do you like it when the ladies show it all leaving nothing to the imagination?

STYLE TIP
for the ladies – Belts, belts, belts are all over the place this spring: wide, narrow, colorful, shiny, clear, animal printed, beaded and you shouldn’t be afraid to enhance your outfit or your figure wearing one. If you have a beautiful pear shape with
curvy hips and a smaller waist - wrap a super wide belt around that waist to make it look even smaller and emphasize your ultra-feminine figure. If you have a more straight athletic figure, try an eye catching, not-so-wide belt (2 & ½ - 3 inches) to give the illusion of a smaller waist and curvier hips.
