Big White Shirt


So when is the best time to wear a big white button up shirt? Summer, of course!

No, I'm not talking about Jerry Seinfeld's frilly pirate shirt. We want classic. We want chic. We want BIG!

A big white shirt can be a stylish cover up at the beach over a swimsuit. Or wear it with blue jeans for a casual weekend barbeque. You can even dress it up with a skirt, heels, a funky belt and jewelry for a night on the town. If you can't find a big white shirt in the ladies department, there's nothing wrong with venturing into men's wear. Just don't let the sales clerk talk you into a sock garter.

Funky T-Shirts



A fashion staple in any wardrobe is the versatile t-shirt. Dress it up with a vest, scarf or blazer, or just wear it with your favorite jeans. If you're in a funky mood, try a t-shirt with a message to tell the world who you are and what's on your mind. Check out the some slogans:

Just add water.

Come to the Dark Side. We have cookies.

My mother is a travel agent for guilt trips.

I'm blogging this.

I used to be schizophrenic but I'm fine now.

No sense in being pessimistic. It wouldn't work anyway.

Upon the advice of my attorney, my shirt bears no message at this time.

The Pixie


Dare to rock the doo! Getting a pixie haircut is a courageous move, but the pay-off is a dramatic, edgy look. Inspired by the Beatles and Twiggy in the 1960s, the pixie features short, wispy layers and bangs that can either by long, short or textured. Pixies can be retro or totally modern and look absolutely amazing with turtlenecks or long scarves. Pixie celebs include Pink, Winona Ryder, Katie Holmes, Jamie Lee Curtis, Julie Andrews, Liza Minnelli and Mia Farrow.

Bite the bullet and get a Pixie...if you dare!
