The Poodle Says…

It's All About Doggie Style You're dolled up, so why expect poochie to have style that's for the dogs? We're not talking about fussy leashes and glamourella collars that doggie darling feels too overdone to catch a ball in. Or, that your he-man honey feels totally ridiculous being near. We are insisting upon whimsical wag wear that's as adorable as the tail-wagger herself. The dogshop at Old Navy has the sweetest bow-wow accessories at a mutt of a price.

Makeup Trick of the Trade…

Bourjois Paris cosmetics was there first No longer must you flit over to Paris for a shopping junket (as if that's a chore on to itself!!!). Bourjois cosmetics are readily available stateside. Okay. We admit it. We're getting older. No, no, not like Granny Clampett ancient. But old enough to recycle our own "vintage" rock t-shirts… to have been there, done that the last time around… to know when something is a just a fad…to know when something is a classic.

Almost every top makeup artist stocked their cosmetic cases with chubby little tubs of

Clean Out Your Closet…

and Help Dress For Success Help other women who want to enter the workforce by donating your slightly worn business clothing. Ok, so you bought that fab navy blue suit last year for a job interview and now the company you work for is sooo casual that a T-shirt almost seems formal. Look it, a girl has got to have room for what she needs. But that suit is too good to trash and it's just taking up space in your closet. What to do? Be altruistic! There are plenty of smart, determined women less fortunate who want to re-enter the workforce yet don't have the resources to buy an interview suit. And, you have one that just hangs in

Please, Say It Isn’t So…

No Acid Washed Jeans! Please say it isn't so, the return of the acid washed jean. Oooohmoigawd! You just knew it was bound to happen one day. Someone, somewhere, somehow would revive the tackiest fashion fad of all time, acid washed jeans. Not to mention, the early Eighties style du jour-- super-skinny legs that zip up the ankle (how else can you get your foot into them?) and slashed all over the place. Don't forget that they are worn with white high heel pumps. Aw come on, you remember all those jokes about mall girls lollygagging around in them, don't you? Well, they're baaaaaaack!!!!! D&G just rocked the acid washed dolls out on the Milan runway for Fall 2001. Here's

Well, Ms. Madonna is certainly no slacker when it comes to making a personal style statement. At any given celebrity awards event, most everyone looks like a walking advertisement of a designer's latest loaners. Except, The Queen Of Eternal Style who made all those diva-wannabes shiver in their overstyled schmatas with her menswear $25.99 Dickies workpants and Dolce and Gabbana homage T-shirt, emblazoned, Material Girl. Now, certainly you must have a

When The Bowtie Breaks, oh baby..

Tips to black tie style Never could figure out if a man overly comfortable in a tuxedo was really a good thing. It seems the more rugged the guy is, the more black tie gets complicated. Listen, even sports legends can have a bad tux night. I was at "An Evening Under the Colorado Sky," an event to benefit The Silver Lining Foundation when John McEnroe's bow tie took a nosedive beyond repair. The guy may be able to clip across the tennis court like nobody's business, but his clip-on tie was not about to behave. Hey, McEnroe looks super cool in a tux sans tie and he was there to support children with cancer and not his personal GQ,

The World According To Warhol…

Andy Warhol's witty, little ditties The World According To Warhol- Andy Warhol's witty little ditties on style. "Looking at store windows is great entertainment because you can see these things and be really glad it's not home filling up your closets and drawers. You never knew in advance if she'd look like a million or like two cents. And the way she'd decide she should look would have nothing to do with where you were going. But they know how to buy cheap clothes that look great. Everything in your closet should have an expiration date on it the way milk and bread and magazines and newspapers do." -- Style, Style, Styleby Andy Warhol
