When Fashion is on the Hot Seat…

You will find me over at Four Plus An Angel today.  I was interviewed on the now world famous Hot Seat. Turns out a lot of women have many, many burning questions about fashion.

 

I wish I had the answers. I wish I could take you all shopping to Paris and Milan. Hell..New York. Minneapolis?

 

And while I am fashion obsessed – you will not find couture in my closet. You also won’t find large department store.

 

You will find thrifted dresses and consignment store skirts. Amazing separates from small boutiques and accessories from kitchy stores.  You will find Anthropologie and JCrew from the sales rack and a smattering of cute items from Target, Gap, and Old Navy.   You will find statement making shoes and a few handbags that I will keep my whole life.

 

But all of it works – because it is me.   The biggest fashion advice I have for you is find YOUR style – not the magazine’s style, or the catalog’s style, or your best friend’s style.  What looks good on you? What can you afford? What are you comfortable in?  What feels good on you? What makes you smile when you wear it? What do you wear that everyone compliments you on when you wear it?  THOSE are the things you need to focus on and your wardrobe will come together and be about you. And you are gorgeous – no matter what you wear.

 

Is that vague enough for you?

Please come over and learn more fashion advice, shopping tips and my biggest fashion faux pas on the Hot Seat. Vlog style.

    You were awesome in the Hot Seat. And Hot. Despite the pigtails and yoga pants.

    That was an awesome vlog, pigtails and all! I love flip flops, but please don’t judge me on that! ;)

    You did a great job in the hot seat! And you are so right… as cliche as it always sounds, we have to find our own style. Besides–sometimes it’s fun to march to the beat of our own drum :)
