Stylish Person of the Week

I realize this is blurry and apologize.


For the past month or so I have seen Shannon nearly every day, and she has been unfailingly  fashionable. Two things which make her an especially wise stylish person are: her interest in and ability to accessorize like an expert and how she values tailoring.

The concept of accessorizing paralyzes many women. It can be hard to know how much bling is too much or what kind of necklace to wear with certain tops. Shannon knows just what her outfit needs and  seems fearless in her accessorizing choices, from scarves to bracelets.

She also values her exceptional tailor. Though a lot of clothing is made for her tall, slim frame, she realizes that a seam here and a tuck there can make a huge difference in how the clothing fits her. We agree that clothing can be inexpensive or designer, but if it does not fit perfectly, it just looks cheap and sloppy.

For some accessorizing ideas, go here. And for my list of great local tailors, go here. Lately my tailor of choice has been Jennifer Johnson. She even tailored a bra for me and now it fits beautifully! Contact her at 805.382.1700 or bewitchment2000@roadrunner.com.
