BEST OF Guest Blogger: A Rose by Any Other Size
 So I was watching The Mo’Nique Show (I love me some Mo’Nique) during which Mo’Nique talked about her weight loss and had guests on like Star Jones who discussed losing weight and how it’s time for the black community to get not skinny, but healthy. Now, all that’s great, but I’m not here to [...]

Goodwill Good Buy of the Week
Carry on! More Cargo, that is! This week, we have 2 perfectly stylee pairs of gray cargo pants for you. These pants were found at the South Dakota Avenue branch of Goodwill in NE DC. With Fall just around the corner (although it’s hard to imagine when it’s 92 degrees today), the basic, solid cargo pant [...]

Guest Blogger: Romper Mania
I went to a dinner party last night in a romper. Not surprisingly, this caused quite a stir- after all, rompers are only recently coming (back?) into style. I am all for it. In my opinion, there is nothing better than a well put together summer romper outfit. Today, I will be making my pro-romper [...]

Goodwill Good Buy of the Week
This week we have 2 summery skirt outfits. I found these at the Goodwill on 10 S. Glebe Road in Arlington, and it was like someone planned it. The skirts are nearly identical in style – knee length, cotton, floral pattern, slight A line. Comfortable, easy, breezy, Cover Girl. Wait… Anyway, here they are. The mint [...]

Goodwill Good Buy of the Week
Lucky Charms This week, we have a grouping of green garments for your bidding pleasure. These pieces are from various stores around the area. Green is an interesting color because you can really wear it in all four seasons. These particular items are mostly dark green so they are great for fall and even winter. [...]

Guest Blogger: Five Rules for Thrifting
I’ll be the first to admit that I’m obsessed with a good deal. Compliment my blazer and I can’t resist telling you that I found it for $4.39 last spring at Goodwill. Thrift store shopping is a sport I regularly practice. And the more I shop and scour, the better it gets. In an economy [...]

Everything’s Coming Up Roses
As I write this, dear readers, I’m sitting in my apartment, looking out on more snow than I’ve seen in years! I’m more than ready to put away my boots and sweaters, but this is a fun March surprise, I have to say. The DCGF is ready to think spring, and this season is bringing [...]

Mind The Gap
So what do you think? At right are two looks from Patrick Robinson’s Fall 2008 collection for Gap, that stalwart of American fashion that has of late fallen on hard times, both fiscally and fashionably. Robinson – he of his own failed eponymous line and late of Perry Ellis and Paco Rabanne – has been [...]

The Bell Curve
The recent revival Hair at the Public Theater in NYC may or may not be signaling a new Age of Aquarius, but there’s one thing for which the DCGF is thankful for: a resurgence of flared-leg – if not bell-bottom – jeans at all levels of the denim industry. You see, as much as “skinny” [...]
