My first day Blogging

I was asked today if  "this", and what I mean by "this", will follow shortly, is something that I plan on continuing do to for my close friends...and I suppose by my creating a Blog (and quite nervous about it too!!), I guess it means I am.  I will be doing "this" until "this" no longer pleases me or entertains you.  In later posts, I'll describe myself and where the title comes from, but for now we'll just leave it at..."this".

What did I do today for my friends...merely updated their Fall Fashion 2010 list of style. 

There's more to Fall Fashion 2010: Yes the styles just KEEP coming!

Summer is almost over,..(sly smile, Fall is my favorite time of the year!! and Living in Chicago you'd think I was crazy but I just love layers!!) or it will feel that way come Labor Day (27 days left) and with fall on its heels (8/23) we should be thinking about what to wear next!! (I know I am...already have my Thigh High Boots)

60's Ladylike & Sophisticated '70s!
Oh yes, just when you thought you could dress like the '10s (get it...) we have to go retro/forward and dawn the silhouettes of the 1950s and 1960s - this style is making a strong return, with shapes that accentuate curves and foster femininity (My 2 FAVORITE THINGS). The aesthetic is decidedly Mad Men (need to start watching that show), the look is versatile and fun. A hip-hugging sheath dress with a below-the-knee hem is the ultimate in hourglass dressing, while the full circle skirt and dress remain at the core of the trend.

What about the Sophisticated '70s? By day it's all about high waists, wide legs, soft blouses and '70s accessories. By night, all that shimmers is gold. Flowing, draping dresses in high-shine fabrics or metallic hues are perfect for evening '70s glamour. Be bold and don't hold back (My other 2 FAVORITE THINGS!!), this look is about balancing softness with boldness.

Happy Shopping ladies, and remember, YOU ARE FABULOUS!!
(to give credit where credit is due, the style descriptions are not mine, but the commentary is!)
