Today's fashion & style question comes from Andrew in Ann Arbor. I've recently lost weight and now I can fit into my skinny jeans, but much to my distress I've lost weight (as typical) in my legs before my stomach, so actually wearing my skinny jeans makes me look fatter. ...
Last month I asked for your fashion dilemmas, to put my expertise to the test. It's February, we just passed Valentines Day, so I guess this blog post is a tad premature, but I think it's an issue that comes up often...I'm assuming more often for single guys. Because what ...
Have you ever found yourself in a fashion dilemma that you didn't know how to solve? Let's put my knowledge to the test. Ask me anything! Not that I claim to be the be all end all when it comes to fashion. I really kind of go my own way ...
2009 was a pretty fantastic year for me. I full filled my dream of getting a degree in fashion design, from one of the greatest fashion schools in the country, and it was no walk in the park that's for sure. But wow was it ever the most amazing experience ...
The holidays are here, and if you're going to shop, now is the time. For the fashion fiend on your list, or feel you deserve a little gift of your own (I know I do!), head over to Target because their newest "Go International" designers are none other than one ...
The Gallery Project has a new exhibition which features artists as designers and social commentators. It's called Spring 2010 Collection and features the work of 27 local, regional, and national artists who have created pieces specifically for this exhibit.

The New York Times had an article in today's Technology section about a new concept called "Rent The Runway". Supposedly, it's like Netflix, for clothes. If you don't have the money to buy a couture gown but would love to show up at a fabulous party or your best friend's ...
After a brief hiatus (aka Halloween MADNESS) , I'm back, and ready for some winter fashion discussion. The most important thing on all our minds should be outerwear. Luckily, it's not too bad out there yet, but as Michigan residents, we know what's coming. If there is one thing that ...
I have this great book someone got me a few years ago, called "Learning to Love You More" by Miranda July. It's a really cute quirkly little book that gives the reader these "tasks" to do every day as a way to make life more interesting. Some of the assignments ...
My 'Spotted on the Streets' October fashionista is the fabulous Nani O. I spotted Nani in Depot Town and just knew right away she was my October fashion find. She is wearing an adorable 1950's halter top style red and white polka dotted cotton dress; a black satin sash belt; ...
The second day of Fashion in Detroit was much more exciting. I don't know if it was because it seemed fuller, as most people probably had an easier time getting Friday off work than Thursday, or it was just that everyone finally let it sink in overnight that we finally ...
Today I was fortunate enough to be invited to attend Michigan's hottest new fashion movement - Fashion In Detroit, as a finalist in the local designer competition. I was one of three finalists nominated based on submission of a portfolio. The winner would receive a guaranteed spot in the next ...
As I've mentioned before, I work as the seamstress for Fantasy Attic Costumes in Ypsilanti. Considering that fall officially began this week and the Halloween season is fast approaching, I find myself reminiscing about school, and the things you learn in college but think you'll never use. I remember sitting ...
Every once in a while I spot someone on the street who makes my head turn. I'm a style shark, so to speak. I think that those who leave their homes after putting more thought into the clothes on their back then just your basic 30-second jeans and t-shirt toss-on, ...
Eastern Michigan University is hosting its second annual fashion week, starting on Sept. 21.
