Style on the Slopes

tommy hilfiger's latest ski collection
We may be dreaming of a white Christmas, but for those of us staying in USA for the festive season, the chances stay in the “slim to none” category. For the select few who are heading for a white Christmas accompanied by a pair of skis (lucky devils…) there are greater matters to be pondered. For that bunch, the key question is more likely to be ‘how to cope with all that snow and still look good?’. Well seasonal skiers, fear not, Tommy Hilfiger’s new range of ski wear claims to be everything from fashionable to functional. Read the rest of this entry »

Ashley Judd in Michael Kors

Ashley Judd in Michael KorsTo the Cartier party on June 8th, Ashley Judd wore this perfect Michael Kors dress. Floor-length dresses are a hot commodity this season. I call it perfect because it is casual enough to wear to a dinner date but fancy enough to wear to a high profile event.

Miss Sixty never fails to keep the pulse of young, hip, and fun ladies. Although her fashions may seem too edgy and “street” for some, they never fail to make me smile and say, “I’ll take three of those, please!”
Denim is a staple in Miss Sixty’s Fall 2011 Ready-To-Wear collection. Pants, shorts, and jackets all are stylish and flirty. A pair of extra-long cuffed denim jeans (every tall girl is thankful right about now) matched with a red and black slinky sleek tank is sure to grab some attention. Accessories are also a must in Miss Sixty’s collections: wide-brimmed fedora hats, head scarves, and golfing-style gloves add that extra punch of color.
