Question: Hey, this is Mike. Are Mexican blankets a good idea for summer wear? Thanks, Mike

Answer: Only for picnics! Thanks for watching!

Q: I have so many drink events and don’t want to buy lots of clothes. Is there a shirt style that is basic that I can dress up? Or a necklace store that you can recommend. Like one of your other fans I am not full figured … Lol. Love all the things you choose for Lara!

A: The easiest way to go from day to night is by wearing long layered necklaces with a blouse and by switching your day purse or tote to a clutch for the evening. Don’t forget, if you're wearing a long necklace, wear small earrings and if you're wearing big earrings, don't wear a necklace. I love the accessories at forever21.com and alltherage.com because they are inexpensive and have tons of choices. Thanks for watching!

Q: Hi, would you please tell me who makes the long gold necklace with black cut outs that Lara has on the Insider commercials? I have seen this necklace in silver and white before? Thanks, Tina.

A: It's made by Kitson and you can find it at shopkitson.com. Thanks for watching!

Q: What can you recommend for a young-minded 45-year-old, who's a size 22/24, 5' 2,'' and wants to look very put together for business as well as casual.

A: The secret to looking put together is to layer outfits and add accessories. Try stores like Lane Bryant, Chadwicks and J. Jill that have current key pieces. Don't be afraid to add a belt, it is a must-have accessory for fall and it keeps you looking styled. No matter what size you are, have fun with shoes, purses and accessories! Thanks for watching!

Q: I love the outfits. However, I am small, a size 1-0, where can I find these outfits you have? It's hard for me to find anything in my size, why???

A: A good tip if you have a hard time finding clothes: the tailor is your best friend. You can buy anything and get it altered to fit you! Thanks for watching!
