Two halves do make a whole…. hot mess

November 15, 2008


If I were Katie Price’s stylist, I would sit down and have a long talk about the basic rules of math… While the sum of the parts is always greater than the whole, that is no excuse to walk around like a tramped out version of Batman’s Two- Face.
Where, O where to start…. okay, I think this whole look needs to be scrapped; there is nothing worth saving on either half of this wretched ensemble. Now Katie is a pretty girl, but she does love her some tranny make-up. If she wants to paint all that nonsense on her face, then she needs to keep the hair VERY simple. A straight and clean look, or loose natural waves would be best. As for the dress, I know some girls love pink and I imagine Katie is one of them, but when wearing such a stand-out color, you need to be sure the silhouette is simple and classy. Dolce & Gabbana makes gorgeous and sexy dresses and they don’t shy away from color. Like this fab look on Teri Hatcher at David Letterman. There are so many color variations on this classic dress; it is almost in Dolce & Gabbana’s collections every year. Let the dress be the stand-out item and keep the shoes neutral. My favorite look is a great nude color shoe. They go with everything and make your legs look longer as your skin color will just blend into the shoe. Now just add these three simple tips up for one hot look.

    Nice advice. Curious though, could you please write a blog about that VH1 show, The Pick UP Artist. I think Mystery could some fashion 411.

Not sure if you can pull off the color pink? You c Not sure if you can pull off the color pink? You can! The key is not going overboard and pairing it with neutral colors like white and camel. Still hesitant? Start with pink lipstick (I swear nothing wakes up a tired face more than a little swipe of lipstick)  or in your accessories like a hat or handbag and then work your way into clothing!

We’ve been spending a lot time at our home in La We’ve been spending a lot time at our home in Lake Havasu lately for a change of scenery- I guess that’s one of the silver linings of virtual school. Whenever we are there, I challenge myself to a play game I like to call “Find cute clothes at @walmart ”- Perfect for #FrugalFridays!
I have to say if you are willing to search, you can actually find some cute pieces like this tie-dye T-shirt I scored for $9.98! I’ve always been a big proponent of mixing high and low so I’ll pair a T-shirt like this with some of my good jeans and bold accessories to balance to look.

Being a stylist I spend a ton of time in malls and Being a stylist I spend a ton of time in malls and stores and picked up this little nugget of wisdom along the way... @freepeople is one of my go to’s and as luck would have it, @macys online and some brick and mortars sell Free People and it is almost always on sale. I bought the henley in this picture for $21 at Macy’s while it was selling for $68 at Free People. Sidebar here for a moment, I love a good henley as an alternative to a plain old T-shirt! So my big take away is if you find something you love at Free People (and who wouldn’t) check out Macy’s before you buy! Check out my stories for some of my top pics for pieces currently on sale! @liketoknow.it #liketkit http://liketk.it/35R0Y
If you know me, you know that I love both puppies If you know me, you know that I love both puppies and hats 👒🐶 and while we could all use more puppies these days, today-  let’s talk about hats. It is the easiest way to turn an  outfit from drab to fab in addition to hiding roots, grease and grays or as I like to call it Covid hair.
I can’t tell you the amount of times I have had friends or clients say, oh I could never pull off a hat like you do. WRONG! Hats are definitely all about attitude so when you put one on you have to own it. If you think you can rock it, trust me you can. And if this past year has taught me anything,  at the end of the day, do you really care what anyone thinks about you?!
