Fred thought this would be a great segment to have on his show and offered me to be part of it from June to November talking about styling and fashion. I have always been a bargain hunter and a lot of my friends are always asking me where I find all these great clothes. To be honest they were really surprised when I mentioned I shopped at Millers as they said they thought Millers was for more mature ladies and they never would have thought to shop there.
After seeing what I have been purchasing I have definitely changed their minds as some said they will be looking in Millers in the future. Too many people worry about what others are thinking of them this is why I suggested on the couch episode that everyone should go to http://advancedstyle.blogspot.com.au to see what this guy from NY is doing, it's very inspiring.
I'm loving doing ‘The Couch’ at the moment and I have had such great support and feedback from friends about what I'm sharing and talking about on the show. It's very relaxed and fun and it helps people get to know my personality as they see the real person behind all the photos.
Carolyn: Work wear
We just loved the leopard print blouse as these are always on trend. It looked fabulous with the black jacket and pants. This work look was simple and stylish but not over the top. Also a comfortable choice for around the office. Again the jacket could be worn with a skirt to give a different look or with a dress.
Michelle: Work wear
I love anything black and white so I chose the patterned shirt and pants which I dressed up with the red accessories. This gave the look a bit of colour and it looked really smart. I think at work your appearance says a lot about you so I always go for a bit more effort than not enough.
Carolyn: Casual
Carolyn just loved the beige leather look jacket. It is very versatile and can be worn with pants, jeans or even over a dress depending on what type of look you’re going for. The top that Carolyn chose with the heart motive had some gold in it which really picked up the colours of the jacket. This just looked really fab for a casual look.
Michelle: casual
I was so happy to find the black quilted jacket that zipped up. I really feel the cold in winter so this was perfect. Not only was it super warm but it looked great, I teamed it up with the denim leggings which again are just great. These are the best ones I have found yet. They are really comfortable, warm and they are a good quality fabric. I also chose the Turtle neck jumper which was gorgeous in the off white colour. It really went well with my jacket and leggings and I still felt dressed up even though it was pretty casual.Carolyn: evening
This gorgeous dress just stood out with its pop of colour. At first Carolyn was not sure about it with her blonde hair and fair skin but it was absolutely stunning. We have had so much feedback about this dress and jacket already. It would be great as an evening out for dinner or dressy enough to wear to a wedding. Overall this was our pick of the bunch we both loved it.
Michelle: evening
I chose the striped throw because I absolutely love these. I have a couple of others from Millers too. I couldn't resist in dressing this up to give it a real glamorous feel. It looks super stylish with the black and gold clutch and the beautiful accessories. It just goes to show you can dress most things up or down.

Hi
ReplyDeleteThe blog post you have shared is very helpful. I personally feel that Casual Dresses For Women are perfect addition to a girl’s wardrobe as they look cool in scorching summers. There are numerous online stores operating over the internet that deals in women’s dresses, tops and more. You can shop online from these stores while sitting in the comfort of your home. I already have a good collection of these kinds of summer dresses that I buy online.
This is such a awesome collection of dresses, I believe women are really sensitive about their dressing, style and shopping. Now a days it's very easy to shop even you are at home, a lot branded item such like this can be bought easily on order will be deliver at home.

ReplyDeleteSince her days in the White House, Koop has been engaged with different styling ventures (like one with the American Civil Assignment Service Liberties Union, conceptualizing "approaches to utilize garments past basically making a message T-shirt"), yet has as of late been kept caught up with working with Obama for her book visit.
