The awkward in-between seasons call for creativity and ingenuity. Luckily, Ogo lives in the Palm Beaches, where the art of season less dressing thrives.

Knit Dresses & Suits to stay warm and chic for winter

Written by ogo on . Posted in Romantic & Seductive, This girl is ALL BUSINESS

Don’t forego style to stay warm this winter.  The ease of a sweater dress or a knit suit ensemble makes winter dressing easy and practical.  OGO lived in Chicago once upon a time, where the wind chill factor dipped way below zero during cold winter spells.  Some insulated wool and/or silk blend tights, plus warmly lined boots, lined with fur or a synthetic blend, plus a warm knit sweater dress or knit ensemble, will keep you warm when paired with a good winter coat and layered cardigan or jacket, too.  Look for OGO’s upcoming posts featuring warm and stylish vintage and designer coats.

Trending way back when…

Written by ogo on . Posted in Oldies but Goodies

Some trends capture our attention over and over again.  Sometimes, the style returns as an ode to retro charm.  Just as often, a style bears repeating as the latest trend… think Valentino red or Yves Saint Laurent “le smoking”.  OgoVintage will help you build a timeless wardrobe that is as unique as you are.
