MY BLOG:

STYLE YOUR SUCCESS, LIVE YOUR DREAM...


The FocusOnStyle Blog
Helping You + Your Business Get Out There!

Make it your business to live your dream…

 

I inadvertently started my blog during my infant son’s nap time back in 1999… before the term ‘blog’ was even popular.

Through it all, I believe…

Your style is your fingerprint in all that you do… it’s how you see the world + how the world perceives you.

 

The blog archives go back to the beginning and are updated regularly.  You’ll find 1,000’s of posts about modern business, branding, positioning, marketing, photos, fashion, style, beauty, lifestyle… and most importantly, how to do anything authentically. Enjoy!

Retail Remedy: Louis Vuitton + Stephen Sprouse = Paris Love, 80’s style

The 80’s on rewind… The late Stephen Sprouse, one of the hottest New York designers from the 1980s, is B-A-C-K! His signature dayglo colors of hot pink, fluorescent green, and juicy orange are brightening the windows of the Louis Vuitton shop on the Champs Elysees in Paris. The Sprouse windows brim with his graffiti style scrawl T-shirts, swimsuits, jeans, shoes and bags that have Louis Vuitton spelled out on them along with a pink rose motif. Check out the photo gallery below. High tops with orange mesh, black patent straps, and bright green trim are the LV Sprouse must-have sneaker for spring. The bright, fun collection is an homage by Marc Jacobs to Sprouse, who was his fashion mentor and

Retail Remedy: Target McQ pop up cheap chic

High fashion, street-smart price they say… The billboards are up for Alexander McQueen McQ market, the Target pop up shop in NYC’s MeatPa district (that’s meatpacking for you out-of-towners) just in time for Fashion Week and as a sweet preview to the budget fashion line’s March 4th online debut. From a fast look at some of the styles online, thankfully this high fashion to the masses extravaganza does NOT appear to have that same aura of… shall we call it, crap? Yes, there I have said it. Sorry to be the naysayer in all this designer down-branding, but on the few times that I have actually seen some of these “designer” retail giant lines in the flesh, they looked like

Beauty Tips: Beautiful Big Hair

From Charlie's Angels to Kim Kardashian, beautiful big(ish) hair styling tips… I am going to show my age here, but who cares?! As a boy, I grew up with posters and pictures of Charlie’s Angels plastered all over my bedroom. It was back in the day when Drew Barrymore was in ET and had no idea (at least I think so) that she would one day try and emulate those icons of 1970's style. I would collect every, and I mean every, picture of the Angels that I could get my teenage hands on. I could go on and on, but maybe another time. Why I bring this up is that Charlie’s Angel hair, or at least the flavor, is

Retail Remedy: Madison Avenue windows, uptown NY style

Carolina Herrera, Christian Louboutin, and Michael Kors Madison Avenue windows… When you want to look pretty, timeless yet fresh, and elegant Carolina Herrera is a designer who quickly comes to mind, just think about Rene Zellwegger on the red carpet and the oh-so-lovely florals in the latest Madison Avenue windows. Caution: The Christian Louboutin windows may cause acute hyperventilation in combination with random donkey kicking to any shoe addict. How insanely beautiful are the Christian Louboutin python wedges or the Dorothy in the Land of Oz glittery pumps??? Amazing.   How is in the air with the tan strapless dress and its major bow… actually there are plenty of loves to consider the the Michael Kors window display.   Photo
