I did not want to like them. No, no siree, newp, nah, I didn’t want to like them. A little over a year ago, Margaux Shoes reached out to me about a possible partnership. I haven’t had luck partnering with shoe brands. I have difficult feet – they are high volume, wide, and I have…
I love having a dressy blazer in my closet. It’s a quick way to glam up a simple black shell and trousers, looks fun over a graphic tee, can turn a work blouse and pants into festive attire. In my holiday capsule wardrobe, I included a red velvet blazer from Talbots. While red velvet can…
