Noah Answers Your Burning Questions.

After Noah’s last Fashion Tips video, he asked if you had any questions, and several of you did. He put a good deal of research into his answers, hence his somewhat belated reply. But he did not give up. He is here to enlighten you, make your life easier, and unearth the mysteries of the […]

The Zulily Digest.

STOP READING THIS POST. As much as I adore you all ingesting what I have to say, I cannot with good conscience allow you to read any further before you log onto Zulily and buy something specific. RIGHT NOW. Because almost every day I get an email from a reader. “Pardon me, Rachel, but do […]

Alabama’s Shopping Theme Park.

I’ve always wanted to go there. Once even, we were in the area and on our way – then realized it was Sunday and they were closed. But last Friday, I finally got the opportunity to go to the National Mecca of deals shopping. And it was marvelous, so I’m going to take you on […]

The Foreign Universe of The South.

I do adore Project Runway. As long as Tim Gunn is there, I will be a lifelong fan. (Same goes for Sofia the First. He’s the star of that show and Sofia knows it.) However, last week’s episode was a tiny bit perplexing, and has made me seriously rethink the perception that the rest of […]

Fashion Statements of Fact.

Since his debut onto the fashion scene in August, Noah has discovered that he has much more to offer. And so he’s back, explaining in detail the intricacies of toddler clothing and more. He realizes that exposing the world to his impressive depth of knowledge runs the risk of making him the go-to guy for […]

Noah’s Fashion Pointers: Volume One.

For a two-year-old boy, Noah has very strong opinions about fashion, especially since his sister at two didn’t seem to be aware that she was even wearing clothes. But my son’s tastes are exquisite, specific, and a non-negotiable. As such, I decided to let him have his own video column to share his wisdom. So […]

Zulily Lace and a Pretty Face.

Hey – you know what? It’s almost Christmas. Or at least according to Zulily. And you do not want to miss out on your one chance all year long to have “Ho Ho Ho” embroidered on your daughter’s butt. Also. I get that Santa is this nebulous somewhere-between-human-and-angelic-hosts kind of guy, but I still don’t […]

The Economics of Denim.

My inbox stays constantly packed with emails of butts in jeans. Texts of butts in jeans. Questions about butts and jeans. I suppose when one is willing to show the world photos of their own butt in dozens of pairs of jeans in multiple posts over five years, people feel comfortable sharing their own butt […]

On Stumbling Into the Sale of a Lifetime.

May 14 2013 Update: The Wish Collection has relocated to a different state, so the Sample Sales are no longer available in Birmingham at this time. I love you guys, because you are the best Life Informants that a girl could wish for. Anytime I have a question, at least a dozen of you have […]

Recapping The Runway.

The past week has been one of the most physically exhausting weeks of my life. Good thing it’s been the fun kind of exhaustion. Besides having back-to-back-to-back jean fittings all day every day ($27.50 for designer jeans really excites people – who knew?) and in general not sleeping well due to all the hubbub, I […]
