If there’s one style question we hear over and over, it’s how to feel comfortable in the summer without wearing tops that cling to the tummy area. Thus came the idea to style A Line tops. Quote of the day: “And the trouble is, if you don’t risk anything, you risk even more.” Erica Jong I know, I know. I hear women dismissing these items with the thought that they make them look pregnant. But I don’t understand why we think it looks better to wear a tight shirt that encases our tummies? And why is looking pregnant a bad thing? Heck, if most of us were pregnant at our ag…

If you’ve been around for some time, then you might remember that we started filming our healthy grocery hauls and sharing them on Rob’s YouTube channel. Quote of the day: “Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out.” Robert Collier This idea started when one of my readers asked us to share what we buy on our grocery trips. Thus, I photographed and wrote about shopping at:–Trader Joes–Aldis–Frys & Sams But then we thought, maybe we will video the healthy grocery hauls. After doing this for an entire year, we noticed some interesting patterns. …

As someone who receives quite a few collaboration requests, I don’t say yes to every brand that reaches out. Yet every once in a while, I’ll try clothing that I wouldn’t normally try to push myself out of my comfort zone. Quote of the day: “I believe great people do things before they are ready.” Amy Poehler Recently, I’ve been working with two very different clothing companies, and I thought I’d share my perspectives. One offers affordable custom-made clothing, and the other creates artistic, statement-making pieces. And if you’re interested in either of them, I h…

I’m seeing more and more red pants in stores and on those who discuss trends. But I know the question comes up about what to wear with red pants. They make a statement, and that’s exactly why they can feel intimidating. Quote of the day: “Your speed doesn’t matter as long as you are moving forward.” Unknown While I would normally say that you can pair almost anything with red pants, I thought I’d take a page from my color recipe and give you 2 easy options. Start with neutrals as a beginning option. Then get a bit bolder with other colors. Today, my mom and I a…

Summer is proof that blue and white outfits are the way to go. Yet that doesn’t mean we all have to wear the color combination in the same way, right? Quote of the day: “If you choose not to find joy in the snow, you will have less joy in your life but still the same amount of snow.” Unknown It’s one of the things that I love most about fashion. The same colors can tell completely different stories depending on how you style them and the types of clothing you choose. The four of us took the classic blue and white color palette, and each interpreted it with a different pers…

When I wrote about Maverick, our energetic two-year-old rescue cat, it hit me that someone else in our family has never really gotten her own spotlight. So let me introduce a dog that has changed our lives. Quote of the day: “Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.” Roger Cara Piper is really my first dog ever (I’m not counting Brownie, who we had for a year when I was 10, because Brownie was an outside dog only). Piper is our five-year-old Pomsky. What’s a Pomsky, you ask? It’s a mix between a Pomeranian and a Husky. Don’t ask me how it was done. …

I saw this influencer’s outfit and thought I could come up with ways to change it up. Thus began this challenge: how to make an outfit more interesting. Quote of the day: “It doesn’t matter what you say you believe; it only matters what you do.” Robert Fulghum Because here’s the thing: knowing how to make an outfit more interesting isn’t about buying more clothes. It’s about using what you already own in creative ways. And I’m not here to criticize the inspirational photo. Sure, it’s too basic and plain for me, but that doesn’t make it bad.

If you’ve ever wondered whether you can mix stripes and polka dots, the answer is a resounding yes. In fact, combining prints is one of the easiest ways to create a look that feels creative and full of personality. Yet so many women avoid it because they’re worried they’ll get it “wrong” or it’s “too much.” Quote of the day: “A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.” Albert Einstein So when Marsha suggested this prompt for our Ageless Style Group, I knew there would be a couple of eye rolls with my crew.
