Empowerment Dressing 101

|
By Gretta Style
| Gretta
By Gretta Monahan Once upon a time, power dressing was all about uniformity and trying to pretend to be something you’re not. But thankfully, it’s a whole new world these days: Instead, it’s evolved to mean self-expression, being bold enough to embrace your individuality, and celebrating your body shape and size, no matter what it is.

Thank you, Kate Spade

|
By Gretta Style
| Gretta
By Gretta Monahan I’m devoting this week’s column to a woman that I and many others greatly admired — as a great mother, friend, wife and industry icon. This week Kate Spade left us, and we are heartbroken. Kate was a giant in the women’s style industry, and a leader in modernizing how women live and work. But she wasn’t just a leader in business. By all accounts of those who knew and worked with her, she was also a champion in her relationships with everyone around her.

Retro gym glamwear

By Gretta Monahan It’s no secret that athleisure has won the hearts and minds of people across generations and time zones. But as we get closer to summer, it amps up its ability to inspire us to get outside and get moving. So it only makes sense that we incorporate it into all levels of our wardrobes, adding informal fun to formal looks, with details and embellishments that cross over from the yoga studio to work and nights on the town.

Sunny Steals & Deals

By Gretta Monahan If you ask me, one of the nicest things about summer is easy dressing—as in, sundresses. On hot days, it’s a relief to just toss on a one-piece that’s simple, fun, and no-fuss. Who wants to hem and haw over matching separates this time of year? Not me. And right now the designs out there are as cool as they are pretty, and even better, they’re all on sale at deep discounts. Head over to Bloomingdales, and you’ll see exactly what I mean.

D.I.Y home masks

|
By Gretta Style
| Gretta
By Gretta Monahan Every time I turn around these days, it seems like I’m looking at another new kind of at-home sheet mask. Whether it’s at the local pharmacy, at the mall, at a friend’s house, or online, there always seems to be some kind of new contribution to this huge D.I.Y. (or, rather, semi-D.I.Y.) trend. But do they actually work well? And what kinds of benefits do they actually have?

The Scents of Summer

|
By Gretta Style
| Gretta
By Gretta Monahan As early summer settles in and trees and flowers start blooming everywhere, I’m reminded that the season has its own set of fragrances. And that it’s time to switch up my own wardrobe of go-to scents, putting away the woodsy, heavy, and spicier ones I love in fall and winter and bringing out sprays and perfumes that are lighter, more citrus-y, playful, and floral. And yes, a little more sultry, too—because if you can’t have more fun in summertime, when can you?

Style Cleaning 101

|
By Gretta Style
| Gretta
By Gretta Monahan Spring cleaning is one of those things that really needs to be taken in stages. There’s always a lot of it, and you can’t do it all at once if you’re going to do it right. So I usually like to focus it first on the thing I almost always have with me: My bag, and the makeup bag that lives inside of it.

Last-minute Memorial Day Saves

|
By Gretta Style
| Gretta
By Gretta Monahan If you’re looking at your calendar and just realized that Memorial Day is Monday, you’re hardly alone. A friend texted me yesterday and said she was freaking out—partly because she couldn’t believe spring was already flying by, and partly because she had no plans for the holiday, but mostly because she hadn’t thought once yet about turning over her chilly-weather wardrobe, or buying anything new. Until just now. I sympathized with her, since I’m in pretty much the same boat.

How to Safely Sun

|
By Gretta Style
| Gretta
By Gretta Monahan Summer means one thing to many of us: sun. Even those of us who prefer cool spots in the shade still usually smile when we see a clear, cloudless blue sky. And there’s an evolutionary reason for that: humans need Vitamin D (doctors say that more than 40% of American adults don’t get enough of it), and our bodies make it from cholesterol in your skin when it’s exposed to the sun.
