Happy day, dear reader! I get questions about why my business is called Closet Play Image. The short answer is because I think getting dressed should be fun! I don't pretend that what we wear doesn't matter, in fact, just the opposite. Dressing can be serious business, with serious consequences, but we have to do… Continue reading How Playing Dress-Up Can Help Your Style
Happy day dear reader! Previously, I wrote a post about mindful dressing, but I may have gotten the cart in front of the horse! You can dress mindfully with whatever is in your closet, but those daily choices will be easier if the clothes in your closet are mindfully purchased. One might ask, "Is it… Continue reading Mindful Shopping
Happy day, dear reader! Hope yours is full of only pleasant surprises... If you've not visited before, welcome! Lovely to meet you!

Happiest of days to you, my dear reader! Unless you've been in a cave for the past four or five months, I'll wager you've noticed the statement earring trend.

Happy day, dear reader! It is hard to go anywhere this past year without falling all over the off-the-shoulder (or it's younger sister the cold-shoulder) top, tunic, or dress. They are absolutely everywhere! They are cute. They are sassy. They show off a body part that stays appealing longer than many others as we age.… Continue reading Off the Shoulder!
Happy day to you, dear reader! This was not today's originally scheduled post. This was not a post on my planner at all. This one came out of nowhere and blindsided me. I had, as my husband would say, "a craving flung upon me." Everywhere I look, everywhere I go, are white watches. And I… Continue reading Obsession: White Watches

Style Staples are the pieces I look… Continue reading Style Staples: #3 Colored Shoes
Happy day to you, fabulous reader! Alert: This post borders unleashes my financial responsibility geek. (Which many find to be an oxymoron combined with style blogger!)
