What NOT to wear in D.C.
WHAT NOT TO WEAR:
It's baaaaaack... our weekly segment of what NOT to wear ladies and gents. And boy do I have some major fashion no-no's. The good news though is that I was able to find two very well dressed Washingtonians who hit the ball way out of the park with their keen fashion sense. Ok let's start with the not-so-good. For every fashion No-No they will be fined $100 bucks-- and in return I'll take the money and buy them something they will love.
Nothing screams LOOK AT ME like a pair of red skinny jeans--but please find your attention elsewhere. And DON'T match your colored jeans with a big oversized furry purse. Black and red don't mix well and will give any outfit a cheese factor to it, and for cryin' out loud--- lose the ear muffs!
Fined $400
Our next victim was caught wearing a brown suede jacket with a bright orange/reddish faux fur trim. To top it all off she paired it with a chocolate brown fringed purse. Let's just pray there are no more furry suede coats in those shopping bags.
Fined $200
Please do not ever wear high-waters under any circumstances. Tom Sawyer was the only exception, and that was way back in the day and mostly out of necessity. Sadly these boots with a cute pair of faded denim jeans in the right length, would look great and have a very vintage feel to them.
Fined $100
Ok I'll take the good with the bad. Here are the good:
We'll just have to wait and see what next week brings. Send us your fashion pics (good or bad) to thetravelingtalkshow@gmail.com Until then just say NO to high-waters, red skinny jeans, and suede jackets with faux orange fur trims. And YES to well-tailored clothing with a splash of color.

What to Wear, What to Wear...

Whenever me and Vanessa decide to go to an event, the first thing we do is call each other and ask, "What are Your Gonna Wear?" Now if I had $650 to drop on a pair of heels, I'd probably be TTS-ing all around town in the Peep Toe Pumps from Shoecrush.com pictured above.
But alas, like most regular folk, I just throw on something I already have in my closet, which can be a slippery slope down hill. Take for instance this LIME GREEN purse and Flower-Power 70s mash up:

...and this RED BULL cut-off situation we have going on here:
And until then, I'll just keep snapping photos from an inconspicuous corner in Starbucks with a great street view.
