We love Michelle Obama. Not only does she want to keep the youth of our country healthy but she is so dang fashionable! She is often seen in my personal fave, Rachel Roy, but she is sometimes seen in more affordable options which means…. YES! We can recreate her looks on our own! Enter the…
I think it is safe to say that everyone has dreamed of vacationing their Summer away at the beach, maybe Hawaii! Well this Summer’s resort collections surprised us with nothing less than the prints and motifs that scream Aloha! But of course, I sit here and I drool at the Versace’s and Givenchy’s of the…
I am the first to say that I have been adventurous and …ahem, sometimes impulsive with my hair styles and even hair colors. I come from a long line of women who take their hair into their own hands, especially when it comes to at home color care. So before you make some DIY decisions…
We have recently discovered the jewelry and accessory site, MimistheLook.com, where we frugal ladies can find lots of interesting and statement-worthy jewelry options that won’t break the bank. I don’t know about you ladies, but I can’t stand spending tons to look good, and my jewelry is no exception. Of course, we like to splurge…
I love summer and summer styles, and the freedom to crawl out from layers of winter clothing. But every summer I struggle with just what length short is REALLY appropriate. There comes a time in every gal’s life when she has to admit that her legs just aren’t what they used to be, and there…
Having spent the last two years in skinny jeans and jeggings, I was both excited and anxious to see that wide leg pallazo pants are back in style. It’s hard to transition from the super sleek to the wide and slouchy, but I feel like my wardrobe has lots of new pairing options now, and…
Avon has really kicked it up a notch in recent years and we at The Fashionable Housewife are certainly happy that we get to be involved! Not only were we fortunate enough to be involved in a round table discussion with their Global Creative Color Director (and Hollywood makeup artist) Jillian Dempsey (see article here)…
In honor of Earth Day, I thought I would look into some eco-friendly fashion options for us ladies looking to conserve, reduce, reuse and all the other verbs that describe keeping our Earth healthy. What did I find in my search? I found EcoFashion World. This awesome site has it all. You can search by…
I’ve mentioned before that I’m a big fan of The Children’s Place. I appreciate that the clothes are well-priced yet still made with quality, enough to withstand typical kid activities. Also, in contrast to the self-consciously hipster aesthetic of some pricier brands, TCP items never seem to take themselves too seriously, instead playing with contemporary…
When it comes to flying, I used to be a carry-on only type of girl. I would purposefully underpack, carefully planning my trip wardrobe so that I could bypass baggage claim and avoid lugging heavy suitcases around. However– as we all know –in recent years, this mode of travel has gotten tougher to pull off. …
Congratulations to the winner of our Chadwicks© gift card, Miss Lynn Nelson! She will be receiving a $50 gift card courtesy of Chadwicks©! We are so happy that so many of you participated and hope that you will come back the next time we have one of our awesome giveaways! But since we love you…
Lace was all the rage in Spring 2011 shows such as Anna Sui and Dolce and Gabbana. It’s great to take a look at the runways so that we can take inspiration straight to our Spring wardrobes. There are so many affordable options out there right now, that we here at The Fashionable Housewife think…
Ladies, with Spring just around the corner it is up to all of us to sluff off our Winter wardrobe and sass up our Spring one! Chadwicks® is giving us some great options for a sweet and stylish spring, and at some affordable prices. From Spring sweaters and cardis to absolutely adorable dresses for work…
Women are a lot like fingerprints – no two are the same. While one housewife may enjoy gardening, an occasional glass of wine and extravagant fashions, another may loath anything with stems, abhors alcohol and would rather play with leaves than pay full price for her clothing. Who is right? The beauty is that in…
Since my husband and I are expecting our first bambino next month, my life is full of changes. Most of them are exciting, like creating a nursery for this little person we haven’t met yet. Some of them are funny, like when the fraud department at my credit card company called and asked if I…
I don’t know about you girls, but I am about sick of looking at my Winter handbags. To me it’s just plain strange to have a bag that is meant for warmer weather, on your arm when it’s freezing… but now that we are on our way to Spring, I have begun eyeballing what might…
