Fashion Don’t: Teeny Weeny Bathing Suit

Fashion Don’t: Teeny Weeny Bathing Suit I saw this woman last weekend… This is a pretty straight forward FASHION DON’T (at least, I hope it is…). Moral of this Fashion Don’t: – Find a suit that fits – Wear it to the beach… not to a park with no beach or water – Confidence is [...]

Fashion Do or Don’t: Bib Necklace

Fashion Do or Don’t: the Bib Necklace. I’m seeing them everywhere right now! Spring accessories are all about making statements. Bold and colorful jewelry. Chunky bracelets, rings and necklaces. Turquoise pieces. And… Bib Necklaces. Bib Necklaces are exactly what they sound like… they look like bibs. Dramatic? Yes. Making a bold accessory statement? Double yes. [...]

Fashion Don’t: Pleather Leggings

Fashion Don’t – and it’s even scarier because this is fashion for little girls. I know I’m the mom of 4 boys – but I’m also the aunt to 2 nieces and well… was a little fashionista in my day. Pleather leggings… for girls? Really?

Wearing Shorts in the “Winter”

It’s pretty warm in New England today… it’s a balmy “50″ degrees. Since we’ve been braving the weather lately in scarves, hats, leg-warmers, puffer coats and boots – today was a refreshing day (to say the least). It was one of those days where wearing a fleece coat was plenty… for my guys, too. But, [...]

Fashion DON'T: Mixing Prints (For Real)

A Fashion Don’t. Actually… a blazing FASHION DON’T! There are some women I see… and honestly scratch my head wondering what they were thinking as they dressed that morning. I saw one of “these” on the train yesterday. And… I couldn’t help but capturing a photo (yes… I chopped off her head.) This woman… had [...]

HAIR ROOTS

Friday night I did something that I needed to do for a good 8 weeks (OK, maybe 10). I got my hair highlighted and my roots done. Ahhh… I’m back to my “original” color. Well, “original” meaning when I was 3 years old. Like every mother in the world… I have been so busy lately [...]

Fashion Don't – Leggings with stirrups – No No No (No NO!)

I know leggings are hot right now.  They’re popular and just about in every store/boutique in America.  But yesterday I saw leggings with stirrups hanging on a rack. (Insert GASP.) Oh… NO NO NO NO NO! Stirrups?  Really?  With leggings?  Haven’t we gone this route before? I remember wearing leggings with stirrups way back when [...]

A MOM Fashion DON'T.

Running shorts worn with anything other than sneakers or flip flops. Unless you’re planning on making a guest appearance on Gossip Girl or 90210… stay away from heels/booties/flats or anything other than a standard pair of running sneakers of flip flops. Easy, peasy.

Can you wear white after Labor Day? (What's the deal!?)

We’ve all heard it — NO MORE WHITE AFTER LABOR DAY! But is that the truth? Is it really a Fashion DON’T? Can you wear white after Labor Day? from Audrey McClelland on Vimeo. (That’s my little man Henry in the video!)
