Wow! A 90-piece collection of vintage Braniff uniforms, shoes, luggage and accessories designed by none other than Pucci, Halson and Narducci of Dallas is now available on eBay.
The collection was amassed by a former Braniff flight attendant who flew for over 20 years. And I guess if you or I had to wear a uniform designed by Pucci or Halston, we might actually tuck it…
Look out America. The fourth season of Mad Men started this past Sunday and that means plenty of vintage fashion eye candy on Sunday nights. This popular and highly acclaimed television series is becoming known as much for its clothes as it is for its characters!
In fact, this year AMC has teamed up with Banana Republic for a casting call contest in which one lucky winner…
I find lots of women think vintage clothing is all about flapper dresses, Mad Men-style clothing and dazzling evening gowns that celebrities model on the Red Carpet. But because modern clothing takes its inspiration from the fashions of decades gone by, vintage clothing is also about pieces that could easily play hide-and-seek and hold their own against the merchandise displayed at mainstream shopping stores like…
Vintage scarves are one of the great pleasures in life, don’t you think?
They come in every shape, color and size and you can find one to fit any budget. Whether you choose to tie one around you neck, wrap one around your head, tuck one into a pocket or attach one to your purse, they’re a great way to add color and style to any…
If you’re ever not sure what color to wear, you might want to choose them all by wearing…white!
According to the Additive Color Theory, the color white is really the sum of all colors. That’s why sunlight, a form of white light, can bend under certain atmospheric conditions and produce a rainbow that displays all of the different colors “hidden” inside.
And while I’m pretty sure by…
About a decade ago, I remember being at a formal event in NYC and walking into the powder room where a woman took me by the arm and whispered, “Your dress is the talk of the evening.” I hoped, of course, that she meant it as a compliment, but considering I was wearing an outrageously colorful peacock print maxi I wasn’t so sure.
You see, I’m…
Each month I look forward to one of my favorite editorial features: Harper’s Bazaar magazine’s Fabulous at Any Age. The editors really do a fabulous job of highlighting key trends and separating key pieces appropriate for women in their 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, and yes, even 70s+!

I was interviewed by a blogger on Monday and remember telling him about how I value quality over quantity. The interview was about my blogging experiences and so I was using this reference in response to his question about building a following of loyal readers. (That’s you, by the way!)
But when I got to thinking about it, I realized that I truly do value quality…
