Have you ever been standing in the fitting room and wished for a quick guideline to help you decide – do I buy or do I pass?  Well, I have just the thing for you – the 5 F’s of shopping! This is the quick formula that can save you from making costly mistakes in your wardrobe, and know when to walk away from a so-called ‘bargain’ that may not really be a bargain at all.  It can help you avoid that dress that you know deep in your heart is not right, but every sales associate in the store is adamant that you simply MUST have it.  It can be hard to walk away from that kind of pressure without any real tangible advice.  Until now.  Print this out, if you must.  Carry it in your purse.  Put it in your phone.  Let it become your mantra.  

These are the questions to ask yourself when standing in the fitting room or gazing into the mirror at home and they will guide you to feel amazing in your clothes! I present to you, the 5 F’s:

1/ Fit Does it fit well with minimal alterations? 2/ Flatter Does it flatter your figure and your style? 3/ Function Does it work for your lifestyle? 4/ Feel Does it feel great on? 5/ Fabulous Does it make you feel like a million bucks?

Raves & Faves: Two years ago I discovered Jolo Vineyards (https://www.jolovineyards.com/) in Yadkin Valley, NC. Located in North Carolina’s very own ‘wine country’ it’s quickly become a favorite destination as much for their warm welcome as for their award-winning wines. One of my

favorites is Jolatage ($35, https://shop.jolovineyards.com/product/2019-JOLOTAGE), a gorgeous medium-bodied blend that is rich and luxurious with notes of cherry, violets, blueberry, mocha & crushed herbs. One sip and you’ll be hooked!  We’d love for you to leave a 5 star review on iTunes!
