What is “Menocore” as How Does it Pertain to You? For  every new season I try to visualize the look that I want to have achieve.  This year for Fall I was thinking of a more monochromatic style a fitted to the body silhouette.  It’s slimming and I cut my hair into a short pixie look and I would like to have a slender look to go along with my small frame.  My thinking was that it would be an easier look to pull off and put together in the crazy harried mornings when I am putting together a last minute outfit while trying to stay on schedule with my bus!  If it sounds difficult , you’re right it is.  So my thinking was along the lines of looking chic while not having to try to coordinate different looks together and coordinating colors.  I envisioned my look to be slim fitting pants, ribbed turtlenecks (even though turtlenecks annoy me), but it’s a put together look and keep the color scheme in the same family, so I appear taller and slender. ...

Blazers, The Surprising Fall Trend

A surprising trend that popped up in this year’s New York Fashion Week  is plaid blazers.  Actually not just plaid blazers, but they did seem to dominate the runways.  There were solids, plaids and different textures in both formal and casual wear.  The reason why I say it was surprising is because for the last few seasons, I haven’t seen much in the way of blazers.  Its’s not like it died a complete death, but it just wasn’t dominating the fashion scene.  That even goes for work related fashion. Fortunately, it’s back and its back in a very big way. I say fortunately because I just filled up my closet at Poshmark with some great looking blazers that I thought would make a great addition to your Fall Wardrobe.   You can check out my closet right here  https://poshmark.com/closet/sasyscloset   Here are a few of the blazers I have in my closet right now Also there is a fabulous article that I found abou...

Sustainable Fashion~What is it? Why is it Important? How to Find It?

I have heard about Sustainable Fashion for some time now, but never really knew the concept of what it meant.  I also have heard the term "Fast Fashion" and knew that it related to stores such as Zara, and H &M, and basically thought it might that you can get very high fashionable items that basically are knock offs of Designer styles for affordable prices.  For this article I looked up the definition of Fast Fashion and this is what I found it to mean.  " Fast fashion is a contemporary term used by fashion retailers to express that designs move from catwalk quickly to capture current fashion trends. Fast fashion clothing collections are based on the most recent fashion trends presented at Fashion Week in both the spring and the autumn of every year."  This is according to Wikipedia. So I wasn't too far off the mark on that one.  What I didn't know about "Fast Fashion "   was the impact is was ha...

Catching the Vintage Bug

I was reading my last post from September 11th and my last line says that this week I would discuss what to look for when vintage shopping. I realized that in my prior post I already covered a lot of that discussion. So I thought I would change it up to discuss where you can find great vintage items. I have been on this quest for quite sometime. This is what I've concluded: Some of the best hidden treasures I have found were actually from local garage sales and estate sales. The thing with garage sales is that many people who have garage sales do not know the true value and uniqueness of what they have. Their main objective is clearing out and selling whatever anyone is willing to purchase. Like they say, "One Man’s Trash is Another Man’s Treasure". What I love most about this is that you will find very unusual items that you won't see someone else wearing. Most vintage clothing is very well made and stands the test of time. You will want to really look over the...

Vintage'sFashions

If you are like me and love to wear unique clothing and accessories, if you enjoy standing apart from the crowd with your own individualized style and enjoy find one-of-kind clothing that no one else will be wearing, then you might very well be on your way to becoming a passionate collector of vintage.  Buying antique clothing is one way of owning a piece of history and learning how vintage fashion is defined in the process. The beauty of finding that rare treasured dress or skirt or blouse could be extravagant as it being adorned with beads, sequins or embroidery.  Or, it may be unadorned but made with a special fabric that you would not find on contemporary styles of today. When you buy vintage, you are actually purchasing a piece of history.  Think about it.  Who wore that garment that you now own?  For what occasion was it worn?  What did the wearer look like? Perhaps she was sneaking off to a private rendezvous in the dress you now own.  Your...

When Where & How? Vintage Shopping

I love vintage clothes and jewelry. Always have, always will. My greatest finds were at garage sales and estate sales. The trick is to get there early. Well everyone else knows that trick too. Sometimes it's gets crazy and you really need to tune into yourself and ask for patience and resolve as you sift through to find the treasures. Ok so you were lucky enough to find a couple of items that could possibly be vintage , but if you're like me and you searching so you can resell, then you need to know if what you found is true vintage and if it is salable,  not only salable but profitable for you as well. So what do we do if we find something that looks interesting but we know nothing about it. There are clues to vintage. If you found a dress that is lined, chances are it was made after he 70's. Prior to the 70's women wore slips so chances are the garments were unlined. Another hint of a vintage garment would be if it has zippers. If it does and it's metal the...

Buying Vintage Clothing on Instagram

I became interested in vintage everything in the very early 90's when I purchased my first home and barely had enough money to eat, let alone furnish my home and put clothes on my back.  Back then garage sales were thriving in the area I live in.  On the weekends the streets were jammed packed with double parked cars and the sidewalks were hustling with people shopping garage sales.  I picked up some of the greatest pieces of furniture for my home along with some nice clothes that I could wear to work, as well as some casual items. So out of necessity I discovered a passion that I loved and that I was very good at. I began selling collectibles on eBay.  Lots of depression glass was being sold at garage sales for pennies. I started making some real money with it.  Then I got into vintage jewelry, first for me personally.  I love jewelry so when I was able to buy items at garage sales for 50 cent to a dollar I was jumping on it. ...

For the Love of Fashion

https://poshmark.com/closet/sasyscloset Today is a new day for me.  My passion for fashion has always been there.  Because of many distractions, some welcomed and others not, I have put this passion on the back burner for quite some time.  However, it's a new day and I am back and stronger than ever. Today I would like to talk about the End of Summer Fashion Dilemma.  It never makes me happy to see Summer in the Rear View Mirror. The only thing to wish for is a few extra weeks of Indian Summer. This is where the dilemma comes in. How do you transition your wardrobe to Fall Looks when it's mid 80's in the Middle is September. It's exciting shopping for a new season wardrobe but when your in between two seasons sometimes you need a little help in the transition. I came across a great article that may help you in choosing your end of summer outfits.  See it her http://buffalonews.com/2017/08/14/early-look-fall-fashion/
