Events
No big events for me while I am shooting the show, so I thought I would help you with your events this season. No need to go crazy for a brand new outfit in this economic down turn. Look in your closet for the basics and good ole stand bys! If you have to buy one of the pieces, I've got store suggestions too.
For your average party or dinner...Put a crisp white shirt (Basiques) with some fancy, flowy pants (Macy's), a string of pearls and your fancy shoes (Zappos.com). Add a fun fushia, purple, or red wrap (Abiento) over your shoulders, or a blazer in a great color (Nordstrom) a little evening bag (Macy's), and you are to a fancy party in a flash!
For the fete at home...or someone else's... Go with your dark jeans (Nordstrom), a red top (sweater, blouse, or knit) (Ann Taylor Loft, Ann Taylor, Talbots), throw on your boots (DSW) - don't forget to add some jewelry (Target, JC Penny) - and you are confortable and fashionable!
For the hubbies party...grab a black skirt (Nordstrom) , a shiny top - any color will do (Macy's), some black jewelry (White House Black Market), opaque tights(SteinMart), fancy shoes (as long as they are are closed toe), your evening handbag, and have a ball!
If you have teenagers and need to buy dresses for them - here are a few ideas - Francesca's collection (Highland Village, Uptown Park, Memorial City Mal), Dillard's Jr. Dept - lots to choose from, New York & Co.
I hope you all have a lot of invitations, and if not, may your celebrations at home be warm and bright!
