But then reader Alexis emailed me asking my opinion on a few things, I started digging around the sale, and found some amazing items at amazing prices.

Many of you have already experienced snow and sub-zero temps. How does one stay warm without sacrificing style? Below my suggestions for…
I love the Kady pant from ELOQUII, but I’m losing weight. The things I like about the Kady pant include the perfect ankle length, the variety of colors that keep being introduced, the versatility of the pant (work appropriate and casual appropriate too), and the cut that makes room for a curvy gal’s figure.
