 Chic and
cozy
Your
social life doesn’t stop just because it’s below zero and there’s
a blanket of snow on the ground. But every Wisconsin winter, women
face the same daunting task: how to look fabulous despite the harsh
elements. Chances are you are already bundled up in your favorite
winter coat, and have pulled out the knee-high boots. But take my word
for it when I say there’s way more you can do. Here are nine easy
ways to stay stylish, despite the frozen tundra.

Chic
inspiration
When
Yves Saint Laurent said, "Fashions fade, style is
eternal," he may have had these six Milwaukeeans in mind.
Modern, vintage, traditional or funky, these local trend-setters
possess an innate sense of style that makes their personal style
cult-worthy. But don’t be too quick to copy their signature
looks. Take their advice instead: Find your own style, and always
be uniquely you.

Rock your
look
Meditation.
Spirituality. Psychoanalysis. Oprah. You are in touch with the inner
you and comfortable in your own skin. Now it’s time to turn your
attention to the outer you, a joining of your two selves. We’ve
lined up local experts to dispense advice on topics from hair to skin
to sex appeal. Don’t feel guilty. It’s OK to take the time to put
the best you out there for all the world to see — inside and out.

Fall's
must-haves
New
York Fashion Week can be an exhausting experience for an editor. While
some fashionistas pick and choose a few key shows to attend, the
junkies, like me, strap on our stilettos at 8 a.m., dash from show to
show all day, then hit the after parties ’til the wee hours. In
fact, when I return from Fashion Week, I generally need a recovery
week.

Frugalitarian
fashion
Breaking
up really is hard to do, especially when it comes to your clothes. We’ve
all been there: totally infatuated with and clinging to that boxy
jacket with the shoulder pads that we were obsessed with when we got
it — in the ’80s. Well, it’s a new season and The Frugalitarian
is all about keeping up with changing times, so get ready to take an
honest, unsentimental look at what’s in your closet. It’s time for
a fall fashion update.
