Fashion bloggers can help you update your look
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, The Times
I am the first to admit that my fashion inspiration is often pirated from my favorite bloggers. I love to steal their style and transform it into my own personal look. One of my favorites is Blair Eadie from “Atlantic Pacific”. Check out her blog here: http://atlantic-pacific.blogspot.com

The best and worst from the Golden Globes
The best and worst looks from the red carpet
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, The Times
Golden Globes Post-Game Show:
First, let me begin by giving a standing ovation to Tina and Amy. I thought that they were HILARIOUS! And, extra props to YOU, Ms. Fey, for having some FAB-U-LOUS hair going on!
Overall, I thought the dresses were lovely and although the whining about how “freeeeezing” everyone...
It is good to be green in 2013
It’s not about the environment, but the color: emerald is hot this year
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, The Times
ATTENTION: Emerald Green is the official “Color of the Year” according to the experts at Pantone, LLC. And, apparently, they are the (self-proclaimed) authorities on this issue.
Hey, I’m not going to argue. I happen to agree that it is a pretty fantastic shade that...

By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, The Times
Do you remember as a kid when the huge JCPenney catalog would come in the mail right before Christmas?

Halloween can be one VERY scary holiday.
A change could do you good
Step outside of your comfort zone to refresh your look
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, The Times
Are you in a style rut?
I feel it. And, it’s a dangerous thing. The last time I felt this way, I cut the length of my hair from my shoulders to my chin (then cried for approximately six months, give or take).
A stylish makeover need not be so dramatic…but, in order to feel refreshed, I do believe...

I am a make-up junkie. Lip-gloss, nail polish, under eye concealer….you name it, I’ve got it.
Walking around a cosmetic store is a little slice of heaven.
