Recently, celebrities have been decorating the red carpet with a stream of silky prints that appear like a picture or painting. Whether the picture print is a nature setting, animal print, or a patterned item, it’s a haute fashion trend. Taylor Swift lit up the red carpet in Ted Baker’s Marui dress to launch her new fragrance. [...]

Film actress and stylish starlette Hilary Swank visited “Kathie Lee & Hoda” last week to talk cancer prevention and promote her documentary “Choose You,” which aims to influence women to put their health first.

The wonderful women at Las Vegas Woman Magazine hosted a fun and lively networking mixer at favorite Las Vegas restaurant Republic Kitchen & Bar.

I played photographer this week. I had to take some images of a local thrift store for a print article I am working on, and I knew since I was going to be lugging around a digital SLR, I didn’t want to also carry a handbag. This utility dress reminds me of a photographer’s vest, [...]
