From weddings, to cocktails, to work day and shopping the sense of casual vibe comes through in all forms.<br \/>\nMight I say being a casual girl myself I love that blend of laid back pieces pumped up with  dressy accessories, but, let\u2019s face it my loves, somewhere during the casualization of America we have blurred the lines of good taste and have forgotten that every look has a time or a place.  And even though I love going casual I feel that it\u2019s always better to err on the side of dressy when attending any event.  Every time I do a bit of traveling I realize that just about every city or metropolitan area has a look of it\u2019s own some good and some just plain ugly.  When I worked with style writer and author of the best seller \u201cHow to Not Look Old\u201d Charla Krupp she kept asking \u201cWhat is the look in this town?\u201d  My response was something on the order of..Dressy Casual and she agreed the AZ zip codes that she experienced were as she described all about designer jeans, heels and status handbags.  As am outsiders briefly observing the view I can\u2019t say that she was wrong, but living here we know that it runs the gamut from dressy blingy to dressy casual to just plain put on some pants and get out of those leggings!<\/p>\n<p>During my stay here our photo crew while having pre-shoot production meeting slash cocktails we spied a rooftop wedding reception full of libated party goers and fashion offenses from top to bottom.  I sat there handing out imaginary fashion citations in my head and compiled a list of cautions to pass on to you my dear Style Files friends.<\/p>\n<p>First off, I don\u2019t care if it\u2019s seventy degrees outside it is still January, so if you are attending a wedding and donning a sweet little LBD or other dress please oh please DO NOT, I repeat do not wear your summer slingbacks with the skinny little thong like straps with a long sleeve dress or any dress that is appropriate for fall or winter. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/22053837\/slingbacks.jpg\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  src=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/22053837\/slingbacks-80x80.jpg\"  alt=\"\"  title=\"slingbacks\"  width=\"350\"  height=\"350\"  class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-5686 pk-lqip pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/22053837\/slingbacks.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/22053837\/slingbacks.jpg 350w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/22053837\/slingbacks-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/22053837\/slingbacks-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/22053837\/slingbacks-80x80.jpg 80w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/22053837\/slingbacks-110x110.jpg 110w\" ><\/a><\/p>\n<p> Truly this ends up looking like you were running out the door and your shoes were an afterthought.
