What Do Oprah's Guru's Say You Must Have In Your Wardrobe?
I have to tell you...I LOVE The "O". She's someone I can relate to on so many levels and she says it like it is. Just had to tell you that. That is not however what this is about. I was watching her show though when I got this from one of her stylist.
These are the things that should be in every womans closet. Yes they make them in all sizes to look good on every woman. Please don't be married to sizes ladies. Be married to looking and feeling good. Don't like to look at that number? Cut the damn tag out!!!!
A Trench Coat - get the best you can afford and go for a pop of color.
A Turtle neck - A couple actually; black and a white
A pair of black trousers - fit is everything. Invest in a great pair. They're worth it.
A Tunic Top - Turn any out fit up a notch. You will feel fabulous and comfy.
2 Pairs of Jeans - 1 White...YES WHITE that fit properly and a DARK denim. Skip the faded ones.
A black dress....notice I didn't say little black dress. Get the one that works for you.
Back to denim. This time a jacket, same as above. A white denim jacket is clean and crisp. Great look.
A black skirt. Again get the one that works for you. The one that works with your body type.
Invest in a nice cashmere sweater. They come in all kinds of weights now and are not that expensive anymore. Layer.
A stylish pair of flats. Skip the tennis shows for running errands and dress up your feet.
Lastly, a BIG bag. As I have said before, they are back in a big way. Check out our sellection. http://www.girlfriendgeneration.com/category/670939
What's Black and white and color all over?
Just about everything. Black and white will never go out of style and should always be a staple, but throw alot of color and you got it all covered. Red is smokin' this year.m Not just any red; THE RED. That perfect shade, either bright and beautiful or faded like your favorite jeans. Pink is here and not going anywhere any time soon. Tons of shades of pink. But really it's all good. Check out what we have going on in our handbag department and you will see what I mean. http://www.girlfriendgeneration.com/category/670939
Size Does Matter
TOTES....you have to have a tote. (What did you think I was talking about?) They hold lots of stuff, are easy to carry and a godsend if you have children. This is not your grandmothers tote. They are fashion fabulous. Every designer on the face of the earth is showing totes, like 3 to 1 on the rest of their bags. And trust me the other bags are not that small. Reality check time. We want to be able to function through our daily lives and look good doing it. http://www.girlfriendgeneration.com/category/670939
Sleek New Design
No it's not a car. But something that desperately needed a make-over. The wallet. The thing in our handbag that we all seem to hate. It never closes right, it's bulky and when you pull it out to pay for something you feel like your mother. Introducing the new metro-wallet. Slim, sleek, beautiful colors and textures and FUNCTIONAL. Holds pretty much everything you need for a normal day and if you want to just carry that and no handbag, it works. Perfect for drinks with the Girlfriends or movies with the kids. http://www.girlfriendgeneration.com/category/670943
That is it for the moment, but check back often and see what's going on with GFG.

Who do you miss.
I recently was sent one of those e-mails that ask you a bunch of questions and you must send it on to the people that you know so that they get to know you better, and they are suppose to do the same.
I always seem to do them, as I hate to be the one to break the chain. This one had an interesting question, simple really, but it stuck with me. It simply said "Who do you miss?". It caught me off guard a little, as I tend to be very sentimental (most people wouldn't believe that), so I try not to dwell on those things. Of course now I'm stuck with it in my head and in my heart.
Not really a bad thing I guess, as with those thoughts come memories and smiles and giggles and yes some tears.So I put this to you. Who do you miss? Think about them, send love to them and if at all possible, let them know.You may discover exactly who is missing you. :)

Friday...Here already?
It's Friday. I know most people like Friday, I'm not really one of them. This Friday is especially not great. See the kids are off of school ALL next week. Today is pretty much the end of what sanity I have left for 10 days.
No one ever told me that doing what I wanted to do, write a book, would be so stressful. It's suppose to reduce your stress isn't it? I just want everyone to like it. I put so much work into all of it, and it's important to me that women get it. So far those I have let read the finished copy do. It's not a big book, just one of those "gift" books but not mushy. It will also have a nice journal attached at the end.
Journalling.....why don't people do that for themselves any more. Blogging is cool, but, you don't neccessarily want to share everything with the world. I love the idea of a journal, where in 50 years my son can go back and read my thoughts, but mostly see my handwriting. There is something comforting about that. I know I always get a warm feeling when I see the handwriting of someone that I love.
For me my journal is like my digital camera. I have to have it with me all the time. When I have a thought/idea that needs to be remembered, I write it. If I don't forget it. My mind is a siv these days. My camera, absolutely neccessary. I get some of the coolest pictures when I least expect it. It is all about getting the moment from both of them. You should try it.
I'll be back. I have a great restarant for you all in NY.

We Are Here X
Welcome, I am so glad you stopped in. I hope you will do so on a regular basis. Sharing is what we do. Being a good girlfriend depends on it. We are also respectful of ourselves and one another.
Girlfriends inthis day and age are so different from when I was younger. They mean so much more as well. I want to hear your thoughts on that, and anything else you think would be of interest to the girlfriends.
Need a little help with something, ask and see what we come up with. Visiting a new place and want to know where to eat, changing careers, relationships or locations and what some support. We might just be able to do that too.
My philosophy has always been, you never know until you try. So try us.
We're glad you came.
