Out of all the clothing on this planet, there’s one garment that’s without a doubt the hardest to put on if you’re paralyzed: And that’s the jacket.  When you’re in a wheelchair, reaching behind/around you, while trying to avoid getting your jacket caught on your push handles (if you have them that is) is seriously one of the most scream-inducing things ever. And even though I’ve been injured for 15 years, I still haven’t found a trick that works every time. Have you? It’s almost winter and jacket-season is upon us. Help! I’m sick of fighting with my bloody jacket! – Tiff PS. And no, ponchos are not an option. Can you say EW?

My Houndstooth-patterned beret from TARGET! $9.99, baby. w00t! It’s ALL about the accessories, ladies; disabled or no. – Tiff

Here’s a really cool article I read on CNN this morning (while drinking my creamy coffee hehe). How To Shop/Design 8 Fab Outfits From Your Closet, Just Like a Fashion Editor Ok, time to work now…. – Tiff

This is not a dress, ladies. It may look like it is, but it’s actually a two-piece halter top/skirt combo. This is the perfect garment for a 24/7 sitting-down fashion diva: No bunching at the waist, and even better, it’s MUCH easier to put on (have you tried putting on a dress lately w/o being able to stand? Horrendous!). I also bought a pair of black “shaper” cotton yoga pants from this site with extremely long inseams (36″), and was very pleased. You can buy this sassy black and white number for $69.99 from Long Elegant Legs. – Tiff

While flipping through a Reader’s Digest last (while week waiting for my van to get fixed), I ran across this intruiging build-your-own-dress website called Dress by Design. For $200, you can pick from 6 different styles, hundreds of different color and fabric options, and create the perfect dress. I really love this idea. It’s an easy way to get just the dress you’re looking for, without the hassle of going out and driving around for naught. Now, if I only had a fun event coming-up, then I just might get one made for myself. – Tiff

Even though we’re all wheelchair-users, our needs regarding clothes still vary person to person. I know that for me, since I’m 5’10 with really long legs, and I sit all day, I need extra-long inseams on all of my pants, but not every other gimp is like me… I also need: – A long torso in my shirts so they don’t ride up, exposing my belly. – Non-bell/flowy sleeves. – Skirts that aren’t above the knee. – No long jackets; they just bunch-up behind my back. – Fabric that moves and no bulky seams. – No itchy fabric like wool. With that said, what do you look for in pants, shirts, jackets,…

Channel Mariah Carey from Cribs (remember her extensive pink babydoll collection in her NYC condo? Crazy, yet impressive…), and head on down to Target for… Tiff’s Target Buy of the Week! (a new weekly blog series) This week I’m featuring the new line of babydolls by Gillian & O’Malley, which Target is selling for V-Day. I came across this “Young Pink” chiffon babydoll for $19.99 yesterday afternoon, and my inner-girly girl nearly peed her pants. For shiz. Impulse-buy forthwith! So of course, I wore it to bed last night and was even MORE pleased with it. Why? It fit my fake boobs (yes, I have implants) like a glove! And let me say…
