I just added this tank dress to the EcoPetites collection. Shop here for more details. This is a loose fitting easy and very comfortable dress, almost trapeze shaped, but with some gentle shaping. The armholes are high and well-portioned for petites to prevent gaping and to cover your unders. High-low hem shows off some leg in the front. Wear loose or belted in warm weather. Layer with the Phoebe Cardigan for a little warmth and shape. Perfect to kick off spring: wear now with a low V-neck top, a denim jacket or blazer or a long sweater. Later, shed the layers and show you some bare shoulders. There are only a few of these, and they are priced to sell...

As I mentioned in a previous post, I thought leg-wear would be a good topic for a post. The bare-leg trend continues, but is not always practical or desired. Nothing on the legs can be chilly. It is amazing what a little light layer can do for warmth! Leg-wear can also tone the legs and cover what you might be sensitive about showing, whatever the reason.

The best bet if you are going to go with this option is to go with the highest quality...
Since many of you on my email list are also small business owners, or are somewhat involved in the marketing aspect of your job, I thought it would be apropos to include a review of one of the business books I’ve read. One of the challenges for us small business owners is keeping up with social media and really “getting it” when it comes to each one. And of course, there are always new ones popping up. This book is a good intro to the basics of social media marketing, with great examples and explanations of some of the most popular current ones. Since these platforms are in constant flux, some of the specific tips are no longer current, but...
Interested in a summary of NY fashion week? After fashion week wraps up, I enjoy spending a day of research, watching videos, following favorite designers and reading blogs and articles, which I did on Friday. Here were my impressions. Ethereal floral embroidery. This theme was just so darn pretty: bright, colorful bold floral embroidery on sheer or barely-there fabrics, layered on creamy light and hazelnut neutrals.

Lots of deep colors with rich tapestries of texture. Many of these looked more earth-toned and richly dark this season, and includes lots of...
