South Carolina-born designer, Sergio Hudson opened his new studio (1830 Sumter Street) to the masses on Saturday, November 5, 2011. So of course I had to show up! How often does Columbia get to boast a local designer who is dressing (housewife) celebrities who are on best-dressed lists? How often does Columbia boast dressing some [...]

The Jumpsuit

Vintage Jumpsuit from Paper Doll NY

Stepping out of my comfort zone, I try on a few jumpsuits. The last time I wore a jumpsuit I was a child. It was denim with buckle snaps. I actually think it was overalls. Really cute. Theses jumpsuits are a bit more grown-up. While attending a networking event at Swanky Boutique in Columbia, I [...]

You Need New Glasses

eb-jernell

It’s been about 2 years since my last glasses purchase from Frame of Mind.  I usually like to update my frames every 2-3 years.  This is usually because my vision may have changed, and it seems logical to get a new style when updating my prescription.  My glasses are an important accessory to my persona.  [...]

The Summer sun is blazin, and so are the styles of the women I know.  The women in my congregation can certainly rock a cool Summer hat on Sunday!  Their style has inspired me to search for a hat for my friends’ June beach wedding.  So I headed over to  2G’s Clothing store (located at [...]

Product Review: Bring It Up Breast Shapers

BringItUp-BreastShapers

I am always in search of the perfect bra.  You know the one that gives you the perfect support so that you can run around with the confidence that you’re not going to “spill out” of.  Let’s face it, as we get older the “girls” are not as perky as they use to.  We may [...]

My Cardigan Obsession

Eb-2-whiteT

I absolutely love a cardigan.  If I find a style I like, such as the longsleeve Patch Pocket Cardigan from Ann Taylor Loft, it will become a staple  with most of my outfits.  Seriously. Maybe I have a problem.  I wore two to Charleston Fashion week (one in black and one in green).  I wore [...]
