Emergency Fashion Fixes at the Office
Emergency Fashion Fixes at the Office Fashion emergencies happen all the time. Avoiding them entirely isn’t possible, but dealing with them is. It just requires a little know-how and some basic office supplies. Obviously, using actual fashion tools would be better, but these can help you out in a pinch so you look your best for that presentation. Tears and Rips Once your clothing starts tearing, you need to stop that tear before it gets any worse. Otherwise, that little hole could quickly turn into a long run. Whether that tear is in your favorite business suit or a dress from a designer dress rental, you need to…

Ask the Doctor :: Symptoms of Fibromyalgia
Ask the Doctor: Question: I am in pain all the time – could I have fibromyalgia? Fibromaylgia is tough: tough to live with and tough to treat. And many doctors have no idea how to diagnosis or treat which makes getting better, a whole new challenge. The best suggestion I have is to find a doctor that you feel comfortable with and trust: Someone who will listen to you and be open to spending the appropriate amount of time with you to get you better. If you have any symptoms below, find that doctor as soon as you can because early treatment will result in a fast recovery. What…

Fashion :: Maxi Dresses for Summer
Summer is in full swing and temperatures are rising all across the country. One of the easiest things to throw on is a maxi dress as they are the essence of comfort and style. This time of year is also a great time to shop for summer items as most retailers are having sales to clear out for fall. I often would scratch my head about this while working in the fashion industry all those years. Who can think about a sweater right now? Not me, but that is the way it works. Never the less, I am happy about a sale on summer clothes since we will be wearing…

Inspirational Mom :: Camilla Olson
There are certain clothing items that I really can’t have enough of (coats being the main item – though I live in sunny California) and I refrain only due to my budget. Scarves are one of those items I would spend too much on if I could. You can have the most simple outfit on but if you throw on a nice scarf around your neck – it just adds the finishing touches! While living abroad in Japan, I came across some beautiful scarves as the Japanese have a real knack for beautiful textiles as you probably know. Recently though, I was given one of the most beautiful scarves’ I have seen in a long…

Recipes :: Easy Homemade Popsicles
For my daughter’s end of the year kindergarten carnival party I signed up to bring popsicles. Having my masters in nutrition has helped me to decipher through ingredient lists to see what our family should and shouldn’t eat. And to be honest, I am always a bit disgusted at the snacks – even the ones who claim to be “healthy” snacks that companies put out on the shelves for our kids. I grabbed some popsicles that I use to eat as a kid and looked at the ingredient list on my way up to the checkout. I didn’t like that High Fructose Corn Syrup was listed in the label as…
