  • The History of the Cardigan Sweater
    While many of us don't look at our closet and wonder about the history of its contents, that doesn't make cardigan sweater history any less valuable. By understanding where our clothing comes from, we can begin to see how many articles of clothing have not only shaped our lives, but have also become important symbols of comfort and peace. A simple cardigan sweater is not just a sweater that you will hang in your closet - it's a stepping stone on the way to some of the more popular styles today.
  • Tennis and Golf Apparel for Women
    Even if you're not heading to Wimbledon or the LPGA, you might be thinking about women's tennis and golf apparel. Although, the earliest versions of these pieces of clothing may have been a bit stodgy and uncomfortable, the good news is that times have changed and these clothing pieces are more stylish than ever. Here are some ideas for getting your wardrobe updated and ready for your next tennis or golf outing - or maybe just for your next trip to the grocery store.
  • Golf Shirts to Fit your Personal Style and Budget
    When you think about a golf shirt, you might immediately think that these are shirts that can only be used if you're a regular golf player – but this isn't the case. These shirts are a perfect compliment to a pair of jeans or shorts on a casual day, too. Of course, when you're an avid golf player, why not invest in a golf shirt or two? They're stylish additions to your wardrobe, plus they can transition from daytime to golf time and back again without any interruption in class.

The plus size fashion market has become hotter than ever and it's even having trouble keeping up with the demand for the latest and greatest fashions.
  • Sophisticated Clothing Ideas for the Summer
    There are only a few people who don't love summer. The warm weather and pleasant breezes make all kinds of fun outdoor activities possible.

The good news is for the upcoming hot months, there are several options to looking good while beating the heat.
  • History of the Ladies Polo Shirt
    For many women, where their clothing comes from is not nearly as important as what it looks like when they put it on. But knowing where your favorite t-shirt or polo shirt first originated can give a better sense of how this piece of clothing might fit into your wardrobe. The ladies polo shirt, for example, actually has its roots in sports and athletic activities played by men - and of course, this tradition has continued to endure over the centuries, finally assimilating into women's style.
  • 3 Tips for Selecting the Right Color for Your Outfit
    As if figuring out the cut and style of your clothes wasn't hard enough, obviously you have to also decide on what color to wear. You can decide to make it easy and always wear all black, but that's boring and not always appropriate. The whole situation can leave a shopper wondering and worrying about the season's color trends, what matches their complexion and the appropriate color choice for the occasion.
  • Why Microfiber is Great for Apparel
    When it comes to choosing fabrics for your clothing, there are several things to determine. One of the first is to pick appropriate options for the climate. Summer and winter obviously bring about different clothing needs. Another thing to consider is what the article of clothing is going to be used for. You can get by with more casual pieces and fabrics for weekends and off time than you can for the work place.
  • From White Dresses to Printed Scrubs the Evolution of Nursing Uniforms
    The origin of nursing uniforms is uncertain. One proposal considers the convents as the source. Nuns were the original nurses. As a result, their somber black and white outfits inspired the plain clothing worn by successive caregivers. Another suggestion looks, instead, to Florence Nightingale. She dictated the outfits for her nurses serving in the Crimean War. They wore gray tweed dresses featuring long sleeves and ample skirts.

  • Why the Polo Shirt has Made a Comeback Within Ladies' Fashion
    The polo shirt is not a new fashion creation. It first appeared as part of the fashion scene in the late 1800s. Oddly enough, and fittingly so, polo shirts were first described as such in reports on polo players. Male Polo players of the Hurlingham Polo Club actually wore them in Buenos Aires in 1893. This makes the Polo shirt, possibly, as one author suggests, the first true sports shirt.
  • Ladies Tennis Fashions
    Tennis fashions have changed dramatically over the centuries since women first started to play the game. In the beginning, long, cumbersome outfits graced the courts. They slowed down freedom of movement and restricted the ability to play the game in accordance to its intention. Then, the incomparable French champion, Suzanne Lenglen, ranked number one in the world in both 1925 and 1926 changed tennis fashions forever.
  • A Quick Primer on Ladies' Golf Fashions
    If you have taken up golf recently you will notice a change is happening on the links. While many private clubs continue to insist on conservative attire, women golfers are beginning to change their look whenever possible. Some critics say it is about time. Until recently, women's golf apparel consisted mainly of boxy polos and ill-fitting shorts. Golf and women's fashion for too long has been considered an oxymoron.
