French chic at the Los Angeles premiere of ‘Coco Before Chanel’

The fashion would have to be amazing. Anything with Chanel in the title must be genius.

But what’s more genius and relevant to updating your look is the very simple and understated glamour of director Anne Fontaine and star Audrey Tautou worn at the Los Angeles premier of “Coco Before Chanel”. Both woman have mastered basic black that is anything but boring in a timeless style that is gorgeous on a woman of any age.

Fashion Week beauty prep to stay pretty all day long…

Looking for a time saving tip to keep your makeup fresh and fabulous for Fashion Week?

Use a generous amount of loose powder under your eyes before applying your eye shadow. Now you don’t have to worry about your eye shadow sprinkling under your eyes and becoming messy when you try to clean it up when you apply eye shadow.

Road trip shopping in Montana and Wyoming for iconic western fashion…

Oh, give me a home where the buffalo roam…

Where seldom is heard a discouraging word, except when it comes to the fashion that’s cloudy all day!

City slicker fashion peeps have a romantic and idolized view of Western clothing. We assume that the fabulous fringe, perfectly worn in cowboy boots, dusty dark jeans, and delicately beaded belts are an easy find in any shop in a town where lodgepole pine outweighs cement or old time shoot ‘em up references still apply.
