Karen's Fashion Tip of the Day Blog

Hi! Welcome to my blog!

Do you love clothes, makeup, jewelry, and fashion, and reading about all of the above?  I do, and can never seem to read enough blogs about what to wear, what to buy or reuse in a new way, how to organize my closet, and what works for my body shape and color season. I love writing, and I'm hoping that sharing what I've learned about fashion in all my exploration will be interesting and helpful and fun!  I hope you will check out my new blog, which has grown out of my Facebook page, Fashion Tip of the Day!  Please feel free to like that page and comment!  It's a short and sweet mini-fashion-blog with a little bit of humor added!

Thanks so much for taking a few moments out of your day to read my blog!

We all have to get dressed anyway, so we may as well make it fun!

As you prepare for your day, I'm sure, like me, you check the weather before choosing your outfit.  I'm extremely sensitive to temperatures, and people who know me well understand that my zone of comfort is basically 70-75 degrees F!  So, although I'm madly looking forward to summer (in Nashville, spring is basically here), I still have to bundle up in long pants, long sleeves and sweaters, and closed shoes. Nevertheless, I'm still...

I can't say that everyone has a cable sweater in their closet, but if I have one, I'm thinking that most people do.  Confined to fewer than average choices in color due to my requirement for petite clothing, as well as fewer than average choices in sweaters due to my severe...

From a fashion perspective, it can be frustrating to be stuck in the virtual, work from home or be masked world.  I feel like my whole look is ruined when I have to mask up and no one can see my pretty lipstick (but I would NEVER go out without a mask).  Or, when I'm on zoom, all people can see is...
