What do you see as the most promising fashion for the upcoming fall season? I have tired of my wardrobe and am interested in a fresh, sparkling cocktail look.
Naked in Nashvegas
Dear Naked,
This fall promises simple, clean lines out of lush fabrics. A key element to fashion success: interesting closures such as frogs and antique buttons. And as always, add that extra glitz and glamour with fabulous accessories.

Dear Todd,
It depends on what the band is playing.
Miss Tamara
I tend to mismatch my stockings. Is this a bad idea?
Silly in Sackville
Dear Silly,
Yes.

While at a recent local girls swap, a friend of mine reported that a "fight" broke out over a certain item. Who should get that item, the person who saw it first or the person on whom it looks best? Please respond!
Desperatelyseekingyourguidance
Dear Desperately,
Fashion etiquitte states that all parties involved would be thrilled for the item to end up in the possession of she on whom it looks best. If said item looks equally fabulous on both parties, then they should share.
Miss Tamara
Dearest Miss Tamara,Oh help! Help! This is quite an embarrassing question of the garment kind, and I hope you will be gracious enough to reply. What sort of drink should I perch toward my lips when I wear my bold Gold Chinese Henry Mancini-inspired cocktail dress? Should I look for a drink with a garnish... or is that too garish? Please tell me soon, I fear I may perish!
Miss De'Amanda
Dear Miss D,
Think of your beverage as an accessory; coordinate the garnish as appropriate. In the case of a gold chinese cocktail dress, a paper umbrella is always desirable.
Miss Tamara
What role should Hawaiian shirts play in today's smart wardrobe?
Miss Noel
Dear Miss N,
It depends. If you live in Hawaii, they seem to be the standard uniform. If you do not, they should be relegated to the closet.
