First up, are these very versatile green velvet […]

Corporate Summer Attire

July 18, 2013 by styledbykdg

I have the utmost respect for women working in the corporate world and battling the heat and humidity. Your best weapon is the fabric of your suits. Cotton, linen and seasonless wool blends breathe best on the body. The trick is to still keep that polished silhouette. Tahari Sleeveless Dress & Ruffled Jacket – Nordstrom $169 (not as foofy as it sounds – more streamlined than you would think) Sometimes you may need to shop in the suiting separates to find […]

Ageless

April 8, 2013 by styledbykdg

In styling a lot of time is spent focused on your body shape. This is the essential foundation of learning how to best dress yourself. However, the next important step is to take in to account your age. That is not to say that women of a certain age have to don a muumuu but rather seek a cut and color of a style that speaks to age aesthetic. I will be the first to admit that I have tried […]

Spring Shoe Trend – Espadrille Wedges

March 13, 2013 by styledbykdg

I love espadrilles. The term espadrille is French and derives from the word in Occitan language, which comes from espardenya, in Catalan. In Catalan it meant a type of shoes made with espart, the Catalan name for esparto, a tough, wiry Mediterranean grass used in making rope. (Source: Wikipedia) To me, they are my stylish mother circa 1980s pairing the espadrilles with her Yves Saint Laurent boatneck tee in the summer. Seville Wedge Espadrilles – J. Crew $128 LAUREN Ralph Lauren […]
