Description
What is happening, Fashion Besties? How fabulous have you had to look this week? As for Holly, she was HOME. ALL. WEEK. Don’t be concerned. It happens. So, with a little downtime, we started sifting through her DMs and emails and decided to share just a few of the questions we get from listeners and clients. Y’all have gotten so fashionably savvy and smart! Your questions remind us that we have many areas yet to discuss, and we are so proud of the listeners that check with us before they commit a fashion crime! #TRUTH We love that you are reaching out and asking, because this is how you learn, and this is how your style evolves. #SoProud First, some starters: What to wear when you are home all day or working from home: NO CRAPPY PJs or SWEATS. Just because you do not step over the threshold for a day or two, you do not have the right to slob-out. Someone might come to your door and then you'll be diving behind the couch. Your dog needs to be walked. You probably need to get the mail. You may have a Facetime call with your mother. Who knows? What you wear to bed, and around the house, is just as important as what you wear out the door. More on this later. For Holly, she started wearing her stepson’s oversized and comfy T-shirts to bed. This quickly turned into a very unsexy fashion crime. So, she decided to up her pajama game with cute and comfy PJ sets and you know what? She quickly realized that a 'put together' look even for bed is better when you are trying to not look like a slob around the house. A mix of practical yet comfortable with a splash of sexy – and of course - is machine washable. When you look good, you feel good; even when you are sleeping. What to do when you HATE shopping: Sidebar rant: Some people like to shop. They evolve their style with their age. They're naturally excelling in life. Fashion and style are fun for them. They enjoy getting dressed. Just because you are a woman does not mean you automatically know from birth how to shop, or even like to shop or enjoy getting dressed. THAT’S OKAY! Women are supposed to have it all, including knowing how to look good, defy their age and continue working until they literally can't in their later years. But look, you're either born with a shopping gene or not. If not, this is a learned skill that you can master just like anything else. The #1 reason people hating shopping is you think nothing fits your body shape. First solution: Shop for the body you have today. Not the 10 pounds you are going to lose someday. And don’t wear what you wore 15 years ago. Face the facts, go into a store, try on current styles, and let a salesperson help you find your fit. ASK FOR HELP. The #2 reason people hate shopping is you don’t know what you're looking for coupled with being stuck in a style rut. Yes, you might take an occasional shopping trip out of sheer life-threatening circumstances. like getting divorced, or a new job, or you're going to an important event that’s going to force you into an overwhelming department store when you realize a). you haven't shopped in 10 or 15 years, or b). you try on 2 things and then come to the conclusion that nothing in the world fits you. From here, there's usually a "get me out of here" fight going on in your head with you and your inner voice saying, that you can totally do this, but by this time you're in the car already. This usually leads to an "See, nothing ever fits me..." freak out and bout of over ordering online...(FASHION CRIME), or opt out of the event altogether to avoid the stress of finding an outfit. Sound like someone you know? #fashiontragedy Holly is here today to share real answers to real questions submitted by 2 of our fashion insider besties. Only the first question is in the show notes here. Make sure you listen to the full episode to hear all of the questions and truth bomb answers!!! Question #1: Dear Holly, I usually wear basics and neutral colors. But recently I've been in
