From soup to nuts — or rather, from make-up to thongs, it’s all here
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, UnionvilleTimes.com
I am lucky to have VERY fabulous girlfriends in my life. They are smart, outrageously funny and chic all at the same time. So, naturally, when I decided to do an article on the “best beauty or fashion advice you’ve ever heard,” I opened the floor to them.
OH BOY, did...
An Easter guide for bunnies…beach bunnies
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, UnionvilleTimes.com
Happy Easter, Peeps! Ha! Get it?
OK, on to serious business. Put down the chocolate bunny. This is the article you’ve been asking for: THE DREADED SWIMSUIT EDITION! And no, I am NOT attaching pictures.
I think the best strategy for getting through the difficult transition of winter layers to full on skin exposure is to break it down into easy to...
Here comes the bride…
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, UnionvilleTimes.com
I love a wedding. I really do. And, like the dork that I am, I am looking forward to watching William and Kate walk down the aisle. Because, doesn’t EVERY girl want to be a princess on her wedding day??
Wedding fashion has changed a wee bit since my wedding in 1993. Oh my, has it changed. Let me count the ways….
The overall silhouette is much...
Springing ahead in fashion
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, UnionvilleTimes.com
Even though we’ve had some schizophrenic weather as of late, I have decided that writing about what I’m craving in Spring fashion will help turn things around! The power of positive thinking and everything….
SO, as a child of the 70’s, I am delighted that the “Must Have” of the season is the high waisted, wide legged jean! Not that I...
Italian men, MMMM…Now that I have your attention….
C’mon boys, fashion isn’t just for women
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, UnionvilleTimes.com
Here in Unionville we have breathtaking countryside, great restaurants with fresh, local ingredients and delicious wine. The one thing we are lacking? Italian men (and, Italian women, my husband would argue; but, this is MY column and NOT his.)
Now, I’m not talking about “Italian-AMERICAN”...
Kelly Does Capri
A not-so-innocent goes abroad and turns her eye to Italian fashion — with only two pairs of shoes. Can she survive?
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, UnionvilleTimes.com
So, while you are sitting down to peruse the Unionville Times with your Landhope coffee, I am, at this VERY MOMENT, sipping espresso in a café in Italy. Jealous? I thought so.
I am wearing black skinny jeans with a striped top and...
How to Save the Unfashionable Friend
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, UnionvilleTimes.com
We all have one….the girlfriend who you are dying to make-over! Bring her to the light, so to speak. But, HOW? How do you do that without hurting her feelings? If you are fortunate enough to know me personally (ha!), you know that I have very little problem expressing myself. And, I have been known, on occasion, to be somewhat obnoxious about...
‘Comfort’ is a four-letter word
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, UnionvilleTimes.com
OK, so it’s really a seven-letter word…just a matter of semantics.
The point is, I am tired of hearing women proclaim “comfort” above all else as their mantra for how they build a wardrobe. Do you need to be ready to lay down for a nap at a moment’s notice?
I’m confused.
Take a minute and look at yourself in the mirror. If you could wear...
