[Insiders Only] ALL NEW January Must-Haves Capsule Wardrobe

Tina, here.

Happy New Year, Insiders! FINALLY. I took the holidays off from writing, and it was a much needed break to reflect and plan. I also had my fiftieth birthday, surrounded by my "seven," with a few missing. How am I so fortunate that I have the dearest friends to celebrate with me, and who I fully intend to keep by my side the rest of my life. I am hopeful for the new year...because there is a great chance we have grown and learned from this past year. So, as we turn over a new page, let's refresh ourselves with, what else, but a pretty winter wardrobe and some wonderful January Must-Haves!

[Insider's Exclusive Guide] Wearing Scarves Slash Masks In The Time Of Covid

Tina, here. Why have I avoided a post dedicated to wearing masks? Because number one, I don't like the idea of making something as utilitarian as masks into a style statement (or spending the money on it), and number two, I've been wearing mostly scarves and bandanas, not masks, and number three, I hope hope […]

Tina here. Claims of "the world's most comfortable shoes" and "the sexiest flats you'll ever find" and "the easiest heels to run in" are thrown around every day. I'm not a skeptic by nature, so I tend to want to give everyone the benefit of the doubt. But I also know a few things about […]

Tina, here. Too bad you can't bring a flask into most dressing rooms. A glass of wine seems a bit classier, but, still, not legal in most retail establishments. Or wise.
