Meet Elizabeth Anderson of My Chic Things
By Tammy | March 25, 2008
Your Name: Elizabeth Anderson
How many children do you have? Two kids! Austin is 18 and will be attending the University of Oklahoma in the fall. Clara is 9 and in 4th grade.
Your Business Name: My Chic Things
Brief Description of Your Business: I’m an Oklahoma teacher who followed my dream and opened a web boutique. I feature chic girly- girl items and unique gifts. A place where one can find items for wardrobes or gifts which are not in every department store or in all of the stores in the Mall!
What is your favorite beauty tip? Have someone else do your manicures and pedicures.
What did your mother teach you about beauty and fashion?
My mother has always been comfortable with herself and her classic, conservative wardrobe. She taught me to be true to myself. To wear what I love and not feel like I have to “give in” to every latest trend just because everyone else is doing it.
If you have a daughter, what tips will you be sure to share with her as she grows? Well, my daughter already has a mind of her own when it comes to fashion. She will ask my opinion on occasion which always makes me smile.
What is your favorite outfit in your closet and why? Oh, I love my black t-shirt with the black rhinestone Fleur de lis. Roger Taylor, the drummer for Duran Duran, sat on it.
What’s your favorite online site to shop for beauty or fashion? I love MyShape.com. I buy a lot of clothes there.
What motivates you to look your best? I never know who I’m going to run into when I’m out and about town. Plus looking good makes me feel good.
As a mom, “Me Time” is limited… what are your time saving beauty tips?
I only wash my hair every other day. It’s super thick, so I blow dry it until it’s only slightly damp before I try to style it.
Name one product you can’t live without: Juicy Couture Perfume
Heels or flats? Describe your favorite pair.
Flats! I love my brown suede Brighton flats. I have to have chic flats in black, brown and silver.
Lip gloss or Lip Stick? Which brand/color? Lip Gloss~Aveda . I have tons of colors!
Any additional comments on beauty and style you’d like to share: Add pizzazz to your favorite jeans and t-shirts with fabulous accessories. You don’t have to spend a lot of money to invent your own style. Adding a new piece of jewelry or a fun handbag can give your wardrobe that extra chic look that will make you feel fantastic!
Editor’s Note: Beth, I hope you leave a comment and share the story about Roger Taylor sitting on your tee!!! I want to know! I think Beth’s advice about adding instant chic to your style with a few great accessories is right on target! Take your basic jeans and tee and doll it up with a great necklace and handbag for a winning daytime look!

I’m glad to hear from a fashionable mom who wears flats! I have to wear flats (medical issue), and I hate it when the fashionistas say we all need pointy-toe high heeled shoes.

Daisy, You need to visit Barking Dog Shoes (link on left sidebar). She also has medical reasons for finding and wearing fabulous flats! You’ll love her picks!
