Every once in a while this unbelievable sadness comes over my heart and breaks it all over again ... not because of the way things are but the way things could have been.

5 ways to update your look

March 16, 2006

excerpt from Preview

1. Get Skinny.

Skinny jeans were all the rave last fall/winter, where equally skinny young things tucked them into high boots. Once you put them on, anything else you pair it with looks magically new.  It says "you’re in the know" when it comes to trends. Here in summerland, the look can we worn with pumps, wedges, or flats. The look is very hip, young, but also extrememly unforgiving. If you tend to be bottom heavy, go for stove pipe/straight cut, rather than the less flattering peg leg/tapered cut.

Get them in a dark wash for a more slimming effect. If you are top-heavy, pair them with longer tops to avoid the "lightbulb" silhouette.
2. Get a wedgie.
Wedge-heels are hot, and they come in all forms, colors, and heights. Wear them with everything from shorts, dresses, jeans.
 
3. Cinch it.
Wear your belt on the waist, instead of low on the hips. Ribbons, chains, and rope also work.
4. Pile on the necklaces.
Wear them long, layered, and large. You can still use last year’s wooden beads, but wear them in chunks, or mix with different lengths, textures, and colors.
5. Sport a tan.
