As I try to relaunch this thing and balance it with my other blog, I'm brainstorming some ideas for both. And right now, I'm asking for your help with one of them.
This idea occurred to me a few months back while shopping with my sister. She and I have pretty opposite tastes: she's Ralph Lauren, I'm Betsey Johnson. We both admired a few of the same garments, though, which got me thinking: style isn't so much about the actual clothes as it is how you wear them. My sister and I would buy the same dress but each style it completely differently.
So here's my idea: I'd like a stable of women I can consult. Each week I will send you a link to a product. A garment, accessory, something you can wear. I'll also give you a budget. Then you look around online and build an outfit around that product. You send me links to everything you'd pair with it, and I'll compile the results and post them here.
I think this will be a fun way to showcase how many different ways you can wear a simple dress or pair of shoes or whatever. It'll give us all a chance to see something through new eyes and maybe look at our own closets in a new way. If you're interested, drop me a comment here and we'll talk!
