- If you have not checked in at Rebecca & Drew in River Oaks Shopping Center you are missing out. This is a great boutique that offers custom shirts based on bra size and height...they also offer suiting. Call Lindsay at 713-522-7500 for an appointment.
- Wondering what underwear to wear under those tight yoga pants? Check out Smooth Moves Thongs from lululemon. Made from soft breathable modal cotton, at $12.00/each, you will be doing your downward dog in comfort!
- Great news! Legg's now has a line of Shapewear to compete with Spanx! They offer 3 different control levels (firm, moderate, light), 2 colors (black and nude), and 5 silhouettes (capri, mid-thigh, boy short, legging and tights). Check them out at your nearest grocery or drug store. www.leggs.com.
- Having trouble defining your style? Want to help your teen develop hers? Go to www.boutiques.com. After you fill out a questionnaire and pick styles and colors that you like they will give you suggestions on what to look for and where to find it. It is really helpful - especially if you like to shop online! Let me know what you think.

News from Rebecca |
Happy Summer Everybody! I am spending the first part of the summer watching my girls play tournament softball. I have been shopping for really cool clothes to beat the heat. I have found some great tanks from Eddie Bauer, Garnet Hill, and Macy's INC line. Talbot's still has a great short selection in different styles. I've been wearing some really cute sandals from Nine West and American Eagle!
I am taking most of the summer off to spend with my girls and to travel. I will be ready to take clients mid August. Please call me to discuss or set up seminars. I have done presentations for NCL groups and Girl Scout troops covering 5 tips for shopping with mom and preparing to shop alone and with friends.
Emily is available to shop and clean out those closets all summer. She is perfect for your graduating senior. Get rid of all the clutter before they leave and make you do it! Getting prepared for Rush and living in the dorms and small apartments are her specialty.
