If you’re looking at the worldwide trending topics on Twitter right now and you see that phrase and have no idea what it means, I have bad news for you: it’s Creeping Shariah in action. Nah, I’m kidding (FOX News disagrees). Ramadan Mubarak means “Ramadan Congrats,” basically. Muslims worldwide are using the phrase to wish [...]

Business Casual Superstar #409: Maxi Dresses by Lauren Conrad
Posted in Business Casual Superstar, tagged General on July 29, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
Yeah, today’s post involved a maxi dress, and it turned out that it was a maxi dress designed by Lauren Conrad. :-O WHAT. Normally I stay away from anything having to do with that toxic reality show crowd (especially when it comes to LA girls), but whatever. Like I was saying in today’s post over [...]
Business Casual Superstar #408: One Day Deal: Yacht Man Leonardo Collection Watch
Posted in Business Casual Superstar, tagged Accessories, One Day Deals, Outfits for Men on July 27, 2011 | 2 Comments »
This one is for the fellas. Dudes always tweet me and email me and FB me and send me carrier pigeons about how they want me to do more fashion posts for boys. So I need to start doing that. But really? I just feel like an idiot when I put together something for the [...]
Business Casual Superstar #407: Local Love: Pedicures, Cuts, Styling, Massage, and Hair Removal in the Gold Coast!
Posted in Business Casual Superstar, tagged Chicago Deals and Offers, Hair on July 27, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
I’ve neglected “Local Love” for a bit, haven’t I? To refresh your memory, Local Love is the sub-category of Business Casual Superstar in which I share local deals, often pertaining to style and relaxation. Local, for me, means Chicago and the neighboring suburbs. So, sorry to those of you that aren’t Midwestern. But hey, if [...]

Posted in Business Casual Superstar, tagged Celebrity Style on July 27, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you know by now that Amy Winehouse, the British singer and songwriter, passed away. She was a known drug addict, and though the autopsy results haven’t been released yet, there is wide speculation that she died from an overdose. She was an absolutely phenomenal singer (my personal favorite [...]
Business Casual Superstar #405: One Day Deal: Blue Diamond Earrings and Akribos Ladies’ Watch
Posted in Business Casual Superstar, tagged Accessories, One Day Deals on July 26, 2011 | 1 Comment »
So I’m starting a new little sub-category of my Business Casual Superstar series. I’m calling it “One Day Deals,” and it should be pretty self-explanatory. This section is for items you can buy on sale that are only available for purchase during the ides of the month and must be worn only to black-tie affairs [...]

I love sales at the Limited. Thankfully, I never have to wait long between them, because they ALWAYS have some great discount or sale going. As you know by now, the Limited is one of my favorite places to get great work clothes. They have tons of options, lots of professional, feminine styles in a [...]
Business Casual Superstar #403: Dresses and Blazers
Posted in Business Casual Superstar, tagged Celebrity Style on July 26, 2011 | 1 Comment »
My mother LOVES blazers. She wears them all the time, and has since, like, the 80s, when she became a grad student and a professor at Boston University in Beloit, Wisconsin. I mean, in Massachusetts. I had you for a minute there, though. Admit it. Anyway, that explains my tolerance of blazers. I’ve been around [...]

Wow, so I’ve been gone for a bit, huh? Most of July, in fact? Huh. How ’bout that? Anyway, I’m back today with a post inspired by Lindsay Bluth, a character on one of my favorite shows EVER, Arrested Development, which was sadly canceled in 2006. A movie has been in the works forever, supposedly, [...]
Business Casual Superstar #401: Trend Alert: Horizontal Stripes
Posted in Business Casual Superstar, tagged General on July 14, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
Everyone’s doing horizontal stripes these days. EVERYONE. I swear, stepping outside is just one sideways visual Doppler effect. That was a strange allusion. I don’t really care. I’ve kind of got Doppler effect on the brain today. Anyway, today at the Working Wardrobe (click to get to my post) I talk about horizontal stripes. I [...]
