It's A Fine Line, And It's Fabulous!

If you think she got up and whip this look together, think again. This has been years in the making. Each detail is crafted so you see her and not each standout accent. Looking good takes work. One false move a she would be headed for a seat at the WTF convention.

Easter Bonnets For The Committed
Robin Beadle
No one can say that she is not ALL IN! Commitment is bunny earrings and a flowered net scarf. Next time you think you've done your best...go a little further.

Sweet Like Candy

Pink hair made it to the cover of Vogue and Helen Mirren rocked it on the red carpet at the BAFTAs, so why not take it to the streets! Pastel hair is a strong look for any age. It's all about AT-TI-TUDE!

I just ordered myself a denim jumpsuit! I love this look. Anything I can eat corn on the cob in and then go out for cocktails is for me!

Hands Free??!!
Robin Beadle
It's been brought to my attention that there is a "Hands-Free" trend going on and the French seem to be leading the way. I'm not talking about your phone. I'm talking about your purse! Apparently, the trend is to not have one.....NO PURSE?? My mind exploded a little bit. Where do I put my stuff? Do I use pockets? What do I do with my hands? All important questions. I've decided to accept the hands-free challenge and try it for one day this weekend. The short list: one house key, ATM card, drivers License, iPhone and lip gloss. With all of the extra idle time, I'm pretty sure my hands will get in trouble.
Trend: You guessed it, no purse!
Le Parfum, Seriously
Robin Beadle
When in Paris, buy French perfume. At least it seems like the right thing to do. I like the idea of buying French perfume, smoking cigarettes and sleeping in the nude. Too bad I hate smoke and I'm too paranoid to sleep naked. Regardless, I smell like, and I quote "mandarin flowers and white hyacinth, with sweet pea and jasmine,
sandalwood and patchouli, the fragrance combines simplicity, freshness,
charm and the couture spirit". You got that? I wonder what fragrances the French have for appropriate attitudes and politically correct responses. I may need a spritz of that from time to time. Know what I'm saying?
Trend: Obsessed with everything French! Perfume: CARVEN
Uniform
Robin Beadle
Growing up in San Jose you would always find me in shorts, flip flops and a t-shirt. I'm always looking for the adult alternative to that uniform. We've all seen the ladies that dress too young for their age. When you're young you look good in basic gear. When you're older you have to put in a bit more work. So, I put on a long t-shirt with flip flops and an over sized sweater. I took the shorts off but I'm still a lady ;)
Trend: Right size for your age Clothes: Havananas flip flops, Raquel Allegra dress and Maje sweater.
