The Chief Blonde’s January Favorites
Wardrobe Investment Basics
I was hoping to make a video of all my favorites, but it didn’t happen. So instead, I’ll will just show you my favorite products/fashions/etc. for January via this blog post. Let me know in the comments if you like the feature or would rather I make a video. All items this month are unsponsored, but I will always tell you when they are sponsored. This month my focus is Wardrobe Investment Basics.
The Wardrobe Basic Sunglasses
If you are going to invest in one pair of pricey sunglasses, buy a pair of Ray-ban Wayfarers. These glasses are uber-cool, retro and never wrong. Left to right: Ray-Ban Original Wayfarers ($155 via ) and Ray-Ban Outsiders Oversized Wayfarers ($155 via )
The Wardrobe Basic Black Boots
If you head to NYC this season, you will see these Stuart Weitzman over the knee boot everywhere. ($635 via ). You have to try on a pair of Hunter Rain boots just one time to understand why these rain boots are superior in every way to the cheap ones. ($158 via ). These days everyone needs a short black bootie, these British inspired moto-vibed boot Rocket Dog Camilla ($69 via) will be smashing with your favorite moto-jacket and leggings or paired with a edgy skirt.
Wardrobe Basics The Black Tote
I am not a huge purse fan. That’s why you’ll almost always see me carrying this tote from Michael Kors. It’s elegant, has pockets and goes with everything. With only one purse, I have more money to spend on shoes. YEAH! ( $295 via Shopbop)
Favorite Consignment Store for picking up Wardrobe Basics
Fashion Project is a designer clothing donation site where you can donate clothes and a substantial portion of sales goes to your designated charity. You can also buy donated clothes and a majority portion of your purchases go to the charity selected by the donor. It’s such a win-win site and the DEALS ARE INSANE! Many great items from J.Crew, Banana Republic, Coach, Joie, etc. many items are $5. Psst…Watch for their sales, the deals get even sweeter! Wait…What? Here’s my invite link . Below you will see just one of the items I have bought this year (most under $10!).
Update: This favorites post originally had a giveaway attached. The Rafflecopter entry device has been removed and had 7762 entries. See Giveaway Winners.
I’d like to see anything featuring products that are made in the USA
I still like to learn about educational games
I would like more tips on wrinkle creams and health tips.
Im interested in all kinds, clothes, toys, tools, saving, etc. I have 6 of us in the house and I like to read up on new things! And I dont mind watching a video.
I would love to see household gadgets/kitchen gadgets featured.
I think a mix would be great- clothes one time, beauty products another…something fresh and new each time 🙂
I can not usually grab video so a comment or posting about styling for a woman of a certain age. I am just slightly over 50 (51). I am interested in what is appropriate
I guess Favorites Post would be best. I am not likely to watch another video. I’d say more technological items, e.g. kindle, iphone, ipad, etc.
I would love to see information on beauty products
I’d like to know about new and interesting household products.
Thank you!
I love makeup posts and hair products posts. I think shoes favorites would also be a great idea.
I think a monthly favorites would be good, and it could be what you wear for the weather that month. Accessories included! And it would be nice if you could even include links to the articles of clothing or accessory. Maybe even a total price for the outfit!
I would love to either see makeup tutorials or fitness posts.
I am interested in getting stylish hats! Hard to find nowadays!!
I would appreciate the review of clothing the most.
I like your blog because you talk about clothing trends for women my age. I like this because you can’t find it on any other blog that I’ve found. Keep up the good work; maybe trends in jewelry, makeup, etc. for women our age. Thanks for great blog!
For those of us who are “blessed” with large bones and wide hips, please consider some fashion tips videos.
I love watchin videos, so suggest doing a video 🙂
Make up favorites, hauls and reviews would be interesting 🙂
Any giveaway is fine with me
I would love to see Fashion / Clothing videos about winter fashions and different looks with boots. I’d love your opinion on what style of boot for which fashion.
