1. Do pay attention to where you walk; I once caught my heel in a drainage grate. If only everyone could be rescued by a handsome doctor when they step in a hole. (Photo from Columbia Pictures, The Wedding Planner). 2. Do be honest with a friend if she needs to change something about her outfit. You wouldn't want her to let you go out in a too-tight dress or a shade of lipstick that makes your teeth look yellow. It's just good Karma.

1. Do make sure you know the difference between business, casual, and evening attire. The book, Style Clinic: How to Look Fabulous All the Time, at Any Age, for Any Occasion, by Paula Reed is a great resource.

1. Do use hair gel or a product like Aquage's Transforming Paste to get a sexy, piecey look (available at salons $16) .

1. Do be sexy without being too revealing. 2. Don't think you have to only wear women's cologne; give these men's scents a try (Calvin Klein Euphoria Men eau de toilette ($65, at Macys.com, Sean John I Am King eau de toilette$74 at, Macys.com, Gucci by Gucci Pour Homme eau de toilette spray$70 at Saks.com).

Hey, there's nothing wrong with rockin' to your favorite oldie tune from a bygone era, but let me give you nostalgic gals some advice, keep your music, but bring your hair and makeup into the new millennium.

1. Don't think that athletic apparel has to be boring and frumpy. Take a look at these lines of sexy, fun work out duds: Margarita, Bella Mia, Stella McCartney for Adidas, and Kimsbodywear.com.

1. Do wear what flatters your body type, not what you wish did. 2. Do yourself a favor, buy a good bra...in the right size.

1. Do stay away from novelty sunglasses (hearts, clovers, Elton John style, etc.) unless you're under 16. You might want to get a new beach towel, too, if yours has The Little Mermaid on it.
