Newly Single

By Nicole Mann Novick

Your clothes are a great opportunity to remind you how sexy being single can be. A great pair of heels or a standout dress exudes confidence in a way that nothing else can.

After a breakup, care for yourself by choosing clothing that is both cozy and luxurious. For example, a cashmere sweater or a soft cotton blouse offers a bit of decadence that you deserve and will make you feel pampered.

Just because you’re a new mom, it doesn’t mean your dressy favorites should be a thing of the past. Keep a sleek, sexy dress hanging front and center in your closet to be worn with fabulous jewelry and your favorite heels.

Comfortable clothes for chasing around the little one can still be chic. Pair cropped jeans with an embellished top or sexy heels and you’ll be the most stylish mom at the playground.

New City

Sometimes when we move to a new place, our instinct is to try to look the part. But you’ve spent years developing your sense of style, and wearing what makes you feel comfortable will keep you confident regardless of the trends of your new city. Keep your beloved wardrobe staples handy; there’s no need to keep them in the closet just because you’re moving to a new place.

At the same time, it’s always fun to try new things, so do a little people watching and see if the tastemakers in your new city give you style inspiration. A Jersey Girl in Miami might otherwise never know how good she looks in a slightly more cosmopolitan outfit….

New Job

Starting a new job can feel like the first day of school, so try to remember what made it exciting as a kid – back-to-school shopping! Whether your new position requires you to be in suits or the dress code is business casual, treat yourself to a fresh outfit to wear on your very first day as a stylish symbol of your new beginning.

New Job

When shopping for a new job that requires clothing different from the wardrobe that you already own, invest in staples like monochromatic pencil skirts, tailored trousers, button-downs and cardigans that can easily be interchanged. Once you have enough basics, add unique touches as your budget allows, like an interesting statement necklace or a striking belt.

New Body

After substantial weight loss, choose pieces that show off the new figure that you worked so hard to achieve. Most proud of your toned legs from all that running? Then go ahead and shorten your hemline or try more body-conscious styles.

New Body

Just because your body has changed doesn't mean that you need to show the "full monty" to the world. For instance, a strapless cocktail dress will flaunt your svelte arms, while still leaving the rest to the imagination.
