Weed the Garden/ Consignment Chic

Spring is here which means spring cleaning...which should include your closet!  My clients know I am a big proponent of frequently "weeding' the overgrown garden that one's closet can become. Consigning is a great way to clear out some of the items you're just not wearing for whatever reason. Making a little money takes away the guilt of getting rid of an item that might even still have tags on it (you know who you are). So check out this upcoming in-home consignment event (in which I myself will be consigning): Take Two Consignment Blog Who knows...someone else's unworn garment might prove to be a beautiful flower to plant in your own, freshly weeded garden.

No more bulky undershirts!

I'm always telling my male clients that if you feel you must wear an undershirt underneath your button-downs, at least choose one that fits properly and isn't bulky!  This means a tee with a little bit of stretch, and finding one can prove easier said than done.  In the past, I've sent clients to Banana Republic for their stretch tees, but I've recently found a new fave at a most unlikely spot...the Bass Pro Shop!  

That's right, check out their RedHead Skivvies Stretch Crew Neck T-Shirts for Men.  These tagless, soft-to-the-touch t-shirts feature antimicrobial protection and side seam construction to minimize twisting.  But best of all they are made of 95% cotton and 5% spandex for the just the right amount of stretch. Of course they come in white for you traditionalists, but I especially like the heather grey and olive options when worn with a v-neck sweater, for example.  In sizes ranging Small to 2 XL, there is one to fit any shape.  And with a two pack costing only $18.95, it's a deal that just can't be beat!  Go to the Bass Pro Shop website to view all sizes and colors.
