Choosing the Right Jewelry is a Statement of Personal Taste

Choosing what type of jewelry to wear is a personal choice for most people. Of course you have those slaves for fashion who wear whatever is most popular in any given season, but mostly, I believe, jewelry is a personal choice. Take a woman who wears whatever she sees in magazines or on Television with whatever she is wearing, there are people like that and I will tell you that retail wouldn’t be the same without those souls. Give me someone who wears what they love. A locket that has some sentimental value, or their wedding ring with everything they wear because they love it and always want it near them. That’s what I’m talking about. So let’s talk about that. Personal jewelry is jewelry that has been handed down, given as a gift or inherited. It is jewelry that means something to you. I have a locket that my mother and father gave me for my 16th birthday. It isn’t valuable in any way other than I love it. I mean it isn’t the finest gold and doesn’t have any diamonds on it, but I lov...

Tarot As Your Own Personal, Fun, Fashion Stylist

Tarot is perhaps better known for its use as an uplifting guide, showing us events on the horizon or highlighting areas for growth and development. It can assist us in the different areas of our lives, such as career, inspiration, relationship or practicality. These are worthy subjects but there are times when we can turn to our Tarot decks, in the spirit of light heartedness and fun. Tarot can become your own unique wardrobe assistant to help you dress to impress, find your own natural style with panache and to avoid those fashion ‘faux pas’ which lurk unworn in your wardrobe. Have you ever opened your closet, perhaps on a busy work morning or prior to a big night out and despite a fulsome array of clothing, despaired because “you had nothing to wear”? You rummage in amongst the coat hangers, delving into the darkest recesses of your wardrobe, trying on various skirts, dresses, blouses and finally, in a fit of desperation, you select an outfit which should do the trick. Yet, somehow,...

Fashion Show improves slightly from its first season by upping personal drama

After four episodes, Bravo’s The Fashion Show took a week off last night, so it seems like a good time to check in and see if the show’s new direction is enough to make it more than the weak Project Runway clone it was in season one . As it stands, the series, hosted now by Iman and still judged by Isaac Mizrahi, has improved, though by replacing fashion with drama in the form of conflict. But it’s still not a show I’m excited about watching every week. I have not seen Project Runway Canada so I’m unfamiliar with Iman’s hosting and judging. At first, she seemed like she was a featured player on SNL who was doing a campy but bad impression of Ru Paul hosting RuPaul’s Drag Race . It was laugh-out-loud absurd. But she’s toned that down, and she’s occasionally funny as a judge, kind of a combination of Heidi Klum and Michael Kors. Isaac Mizrahi is okay, neither exceptional nor bad, but he’s better in the moments when he’s consulting with the designers, which is why producers should have ...
