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!

-Karen

Actually, although my name is Karen, this blog may not really be all about fashion, and karensfashiontipoftheday may not happen every day.  This will be a writing journey, in which I share my own learnings and experiences about appearance, self-esteem, health, society and attitude, with some clothing and accessories mixed in, in the hope that you find something useful or amusing.

There's a children's book, "The...

Fashion: Friend or Fiend

How can fashion be fun when there are so many rules?  Dress for your body shape, your body type, your height, your weight, the activity, the weather, with designer labels showing, without labels, the right colors...what in the world should I wear?

In case of a fashion emergency, at least dress for the weather; for example, wear boots or closed toed shoes on a cold, rainy day, and bring a sweater for air conditioning.  And to...
