This is awful. As a fairly universally accepted sex symbol, this is really puzzling to me. Nothing works: not the hair, dress or shoes—and they wouldn’t work by themselves either, let alone together.

I wrote a blog post for the Tastemaker Diaries on Michelle Obama’s style and how to copy it on the cheap, although because she buys a lot of her clothing from J. Crew, it’s not exactly rocket science to replicate.
Love the argyle and full skirt combo!

I also wrote a blog yesterday for Tastemakers about the new Forever 21 plus size line. Watch for it!

I realize this isn’t a safe choice for a dress, but I love the sheer polka dots and the nude layer underneath. Isaac Mizrahi can do no wrong in my opinion.

Hey girls (and guys)!
H&M is having some amazing sales right now. I got this dress (above) today (originally $30) for $15. I also picked up some high-waisted black skinny jeans and white skinny trousers for $15 each.
For all you men, take note: my husband Brandon got some great things as well. He found a tan jacket for 50% off, a linen shirt, a sweater and a henley.

What To Wear To: Dress Up Shorts a Tad
Want to wear shorts and not pull a Daisy Duke throwback? Stick to neutral colors, stay away from denim and you can’t go wrong with a pair of sexy—but not too sexy—sandals.

What To Wear To: Get Away With a Weird Cut Dress
This dress is not for the faint of heart. It’s cut to give you serious hips, and I feel somewhat Marie Antoinette-esque when I put this on…and not in the good way. Two keys to making this look: a belt and 1-inch+ heels.


Target Go International gray dress
Brown leather belt — thrifted
Nine West brown faux snakeskin print heels

What To Wear To: Get Over Your Fear of Prints
This dress has a PRINT. Not just lowercase “print.” It can’t hide, so don’t try and cover it up. I added a studded belt a la SJP in the SATC movie and some work-friendly platform peep-toes.

What To Wear To: Balance a Trapeze-Like Top 
Wearing more flowy tops on top requires a streamlined bottom half.

What To Wear To: Dress A Little Cheeky
I’m in love with this $25 dress from H&M. I made it a little saucy with red flats and matching red sunglasses. Dressing monochromatically is difficult, but I think this worked.

What To Wear To: Get Away with Denim at Work
Denim at work is tricky. Even the most casual of workplaces doesn’t want rips, tears and sloppy styling all over the place. I usually wear dark wash skinny or boot-cut jeans, or my favorite, trouser/wide-leg jeans. Pair it with a dressy, work-appropriate top and you won’t get a disapproving glance all day.
