I hope you didn’t, but if you did: 5 ways to not fall off the New Year’s style resolutions wagon

Let's reflect to timeless advice on starting the New Year in YOUR best style. Liar, liar… my big, empty promise to myself and why New Year's style resolutions hardly ever work… It's the start of the new year, and where are you? In my over 20 years in the style business, I have never once thought that truly being stylish came from a check list at the start of the year. I don't bother with resolutions of any kind anymore. If I was really going to commit to a resolution, and meant to do it, I would without having the stress of "the" list. Simple as that.

By 50, I realized my life training was limited too as my daughter (a teenager at the time) was pointing out “how stupid” I was. And now that I am 55,
