Dear Fashion Enthusiasts, Plain Janes and Joes, and all you dear who fall in between,

Today is the official launch of cheryltea.com, an international forum and blog where women (and men, don't be shy!) can exchange fashion and beauty tips from all around the world. Rather than searching aimlessly through sites and personal blogs to answer your stressful question of "What should I wear on a first date?" come to cheryltea.com and ask your fellow fashion-istas, trendsetters, foxy ladies, GQ men, or plain Janes who need just as much help. Not only will you receive answers to your first date closet assistance here, but also answers to "What should I wear on a first date to a hockey game, ballet, dinner and a movie, a trip to the museum, an ambiguous 'let's decide when we meet at the coffee shop' in Summer, Winter, Fall, or Spring?"

Does this outfit make my butt look big? Post a picture (headless to remain anonymous) and let the rest of us give you honest advice, honey. Ask anything, from whether wearing a hot pink, ultra-mini skirt that you really want to wear is acceptable at your sister's wedding to if that scary looking little spot could be skin cancer. (Being healthy is fashionable, too.) Discover if legwarmers are really back in style, and if yes, where (in Calcutta or Los Angeles?), and how to wear them. Learn how to choose items that will leave you owning that outfit and keeping you fresh and confident. Prada, Gucci, or Dolce & Gabbana? Which collection swept Fashion Week off its feet? Chat with fellow enthusiasts about your latest shoe, purse, and designer fetish. Get your gossip fix here as we hash on celebrity wears and red carpet brilliance and disasters.

Goodies: We'll be giving away something sweet and nice as spice such as a trip to your favorite salon, brand-new designer handbag (Balenciaga, anyone?), deep-tissue massage and facial at a local spa, Valentine's Day supply of gourmet chocolates, and so on, to devoted bloggers and forum-ers monthly.

Women everywhere question and have questions about fashion constantly. Start getting answers, here, at cheryltea.com.  Ladies, grab yourself a hot cup of tea, post questions, give advice, rate, critique, gossip, lounge around, and men-- don't shy away quite yet, we'll have plenty of Q&A to keep you interested and looking sharp as well soon.

Happy forum-ing-- we're delighted you're here.
