From What Not to Wear




I worked with a client recently who was from the East Coast. Although she had lived in Santa Barbara for years, some wardrobe rules were hard for her to break. She could not fathom wearing white pants before Memorial Day or patent leather in winter.

We all have some fashion guidelines in our heads, and some are valuable and timeless. For example, I think Clinton Kelly's rule that "after a certain age, don't show too much of your breasts or your navel or your inner thighs" makes perfect sense. However, some rules are outdated and can keep you from having fun with clothing.
