Layering Tunic

 
Layering long t-shirts or tank tops are one of the best style tricks for tall women.  They allow us to extend our wardrobe choices.  I like this layering tunic as it is a bit flared at the bottom, which is great for disguising a bit of stomach pooch.  This one is a sleeveless tunic with swing body, scoop neck and racer back and is available in 6 colors is sizes XS-L for $38. It would look terrific with a short cropped jacket layered over it.

Happy Earth Day!

 
Be good to the environment by supporting companies that recycle and are environmentaly friendly.  Simple Shoes are a great "Earth Friendly" company as they make the soles of their shoes out of recycled tires.  They also have bamboo linings and use such elements as coconut buttons and are constructed of water based cements.
