50th Birthday in Vegas in January: What I Wore

As a grown-ass woman, I was very focused on what I packed to wear for four days in Las Vegas in the winter. Winter in Las Vegas is 40-60 degrees and going for my 50th birthday, I wanted to be prepared, festive, but not corny or uncomfortable. I know I am not the only person…

Refined Winter Fashion Tips: Warm Fashion for Cold Weather

A big question that brings folks to Wardrobe Oxygen this time of year is how to handle very cold temperatures while staying stylish. While it’s frigid right now by DC standards, I don’t deal with such cold temps regularly and would never consider myself an expert on cold weather fashion. Below are the winter-style tips…

How to Style Ivory Courdory Pants for Grown Women

I always look forward to Talbots in fall and winter; the fashion is so stylish, on trend, yet also classic. I was already eyeing Talbots Stretch Corduroy Pants after a recommendation by a member of the Wardrobe Oxygen Community, and I saw so many additional styles that I’d like to wear this season. I decided…

What I Wore to Pastis DC

There’s a new restaurant in the Union Market District in Washington, D.C., and the name may sound familiar to some who have dined in the Big Apple (or watched Sex and the City). Pastis, the French Restaurant in New York City’s Meatpacking District, has opened a second Pastis here in DC. I went to dinner…

Dressing for the Occasion and the Cold

My daughter and I recently went to see the Broadway musical Annie at the National Theater in D.C. While theater used to be a time for folks to dress up, these days people wear most anything to shows. I choose to still look dressed up as I find going to the theater a celebration, and…

Universal Standard 4-in-1 Hybrid Puffer Review

Black coats are practical and classic, but sometimes a person craves color during the grayest months of the year. Thing is, when you are looking for color as well as practicality for a winter’s day, it’s hard to find in larger clothing sizes. Universal Standard has been upping their game each winter with colorful, on-trend,…

What I Wore Recently: November 2023 Edition

It has been a while since I’ve shared what I’ve worn for everyday. And since my mom passed, I haven’t been going to a lot of cool events. But I have left the house and have also done a bit of retail therapy so wanted to share what I wore recently. What I Wore Recently:…

What I Wore Recently: Jan 11, 2023

I have been slow in sharing my outfits here on Wardrobe Oxygen; here are some of the looks I’ve worn in the past month. Holiday looks, office looks, and some casual outfits mixed in and lots of repeats showing you don’t need a big wardrobe for big style. And you can have a very specific…

Move Over Viva Magenta, I’m Crushing on Fuchsia

Before Lockdown, I used to get my nails done on a regular basis. I do powder fill acrylic; as someone who chews her nails and cuticles I find this type of nail keeps me from gnawing (makes my nails too thick to reach my cuticles and covers the nail), it lasts without chipping (up to…
