*I am in no way a fashion expert with a fancy fashion degree! Achievable Fashion was created out of my own need to get fashion right. Not to be a fashionista or fashion icon, but to get out of the house looking put together. I was sick of having the dreaded daily fight with my closet – and p.s. most of the time I lost! As I began my journey to get fashion right I soon figured out that the beginning of mastering fashion and my closet was to build a Basic Classic Wardrobe. Because this Basic Classic Wardrobe helped me so much I decided to write a book about it to share it with women. I knew I was not the only one saddled with a closet full of clothes and nothing to wear.
Armed with my Basic Classic Wardrobe and all the useful fashion info I find I am now happily looking put together most days! And in sharing all this with you – you too can get out of the house without the morning fight with your closet – most days that is!

Mixing multiple prints is a current fashion trend. But unless you are a fashion expert can you do this without looking like you got dressed in the dark? When I decided to put together a website that would bring effortless fashion to real women, my mission was to find and report information that would help us busy ladies on our fashion journey – information that would allow us to be fashion forward with minimal time and investment.
The current fashion trend – mixing different prints together – is tricky business. I searched to find information that would help you and I steer clear of looking like a hot mess when wearing more than one print at a time. What I discovered is that there are some basic rules to follow. I found a great blog that highlights 8 rules to follow when mixing multiple prints. Follow these rules and you are sure to look like you walked off the runway – instead of looking like you got dressed in the dark! Have fun mixing prints like a current fashion trend expert!
