Tina, here. The number one item your wardrobe needs in August (and September) is a pair of brown sandals. They are a magic wardrobe multiplier, a wardrobe hero, a late Summer/ early Fall must-have. Here's why: brown sandals will transition any summer outfit into a pre-Fall outfit, thereby doubling your outfits for this time of […]

Tina, here. When I say paisley, what's the first image that pops up in your mind? If it's a Harold's ad, then you grew up in the '80's, too. Nothing is really new in fashion, and paisley is no exception. But now it's making its rounds in this century. Be careful, if I haven't cleaned […]

Tina, here. This question may have crossed your mind, does it look weird to wear sneakers with dresses? Not if you're wearing the right sneakers with the right dress! In other dress news, dresses present a particular problem this Summer. There are too many ugly, childish and expensive ones out there. I've been collecting good […]
Tina, here. If we're supposed to have 2 - 3 times more tops than bottoms in our closets, where in the world are all the good tops? It's an issue. Always is, every new season. Why is it so hard to find a good top? They either have cut-outs in very unflattering and unnecessary places, […]

Tina, here. Insiders, I've put together a Memorial Day Packing List just for you! Here’s how it works: every top goes with every bottom, and the accessories go with everything. So you can’t go wrong. You’ll pick two dresses, two tops and one bottom, and then you can mix and match to your heart’s content. […]
Tina, here. There is a problem with sailor stripes. Everyone acknowledges that horizontal stripes can make you appear wider than you are, and vertical stripes can make you appear taller. Need scientific proof? There's a study on that. Scientist Val Watham documented results that "show that vertical stripes make people look taller, while horizontal hoops make […]

Tina, here. Do you remember those broomstick skirts from the 90's?

Tina, here.
Yes, Walmart. I know! But seriously, I found such cute stuff! I went in to get .... I can't even remember now because I got distracted by the women's clothing right when you enter the doors. And $130 later, here is what I bought. So far, so good in terms of quality. Not everything there has the same quality, but what I found has managed to be just fine. Most of it I would categorize as "athleisure" but there are some fun Summer run-around pieces, too.
