Allena Rissa has dressed her family, and yours, for years.

She has been writing about clothes since she was twenty-two, and dressing her husband, her kids, and herself through nine years of family photos, fall weddings, work conferences, and Christmas cards that had to land. The Better Fit is where all of that experience lives.

Her guides are long because the answers are not short, practical because the readers are busy, and opinionated because nobody needs more "do whatever feels right." From the mechanics of a bra that actually fits to the dress code buried in a wedding invitation, she has already written the answer.

The Editor's Note
The household stylist has always existed. Every family has one. She is the woman who decides what her guy wears to the wedding, what the kids wear to the holiday party, and what she wears to the thing on Saturday that turned out nicer than expected. This is her authority.
