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!

While at WalMart for something else, I saw these really cute long sleeve waffle cloth shirts on sale for $5!  Definitely a bargain! ...

You've read a hundred of those articles on how to organize your closet, haven't you?  And they all start the same way, with taking everything out of your closet, looking at it, trying it on, deciding if you will keep it, donate it, discard it, or maybe hide it for a season....It's exhausting!  Every time I try this, I end up giving up after going through several pairs of pants, and realizing, yeah, I'll probably wear this again......
