Winter dress tips to be the ultimate Ice Queen

How to look sleek when it's zero degrees... How to look sleek when it's zero degrees… Winter dress tips to be the ultimate Ice Queen Do you have any suggestions on what to wear to a formal wine tasting where some walking around the city between dining and tasting occurs? Is it acceptable and normal to see women in fishnets, sexy dresses and heels in very cold temperature? Or, am I more likely to see women in dressy slacks and sequin tops? And, how about sweaters or shawls? I am assuming that the apartment will be rather chilly. I want to look sleek with zero degree temps and really appreciate the help.

Low Rise Jeans… High Marks to Defy Age

Am I too old to wear ultra low-rise jeans and/or smart, casual ultra low rise pants? I am very thin with very good abdominals. The low cut fits well and my husband and I think they look very good, but is this style simply reserved for young women? Also, I bought my very first pair of open toed shoes. They are silver high heel dress shoes. My husband thinks they look like something a "Hoochie Mama" would wear. I don't even know how to wear them-period! What color clothing can I wear

What to Wear on an Airplane

I'm not sure what to wear on the airplane to visit an old boyfriend out of state. When I walk off the plane, the first impression that I want him to have of me needs to be a GOOD one!

Movie stars and supermodels always look just right when you see them in airports and that's the look that I want! I'm thirty-years-old and like simple things with not a lot of frou-frou! Please, please help me with my "airplane chic" look so I can appear stylish, put together, and elegant. Thank you so much! (Nashville, TN)   First

Matching Leathers

How to match leathers for a polished chic look I have chocolate brown leather pants that I would like to wear out in the evening. Is a light brown suede, outdoorsy jacket tacky to wear with these pants? (Kettering, OH) The most important thing about coordinating leather and suede is that the color, weight, and finish blend. For a fairly regular casual night out, you can probably fake them together by pulling in another soft texture, like a cashmere turtleneck .

Ruff hewn leather is very modern, don't match a well-worn finish with something totally done like pearlized, glazed, or patent leather… keep finishes like

GET THE CUSTOM JEANS YOU WANT

What To Do When Classic Becomes Scarce Dear Sharon: When I saw the retail invasion of hip hugging, bellbottom, dangling, faded blue jeans I thought the cool kids today are going to be hippies again. Since I am mid-forty, I could relate to this trend. However, who would have thought that when it came time to replenish my classic straight-leg jeans stock, I would be faced with the dilemma of only seeing this hippie style or women's casual/dress jeans that have elastic waists or pleated fronts in the stores? I no longer can wear the styles I wore when I was a teenager and suddenly cannot find basic five-pocket "normal jeans". Even my favorite jean is now cut differently. I was so
