Yves Saint Laurent Leather Lace-Up Wedge Ankle Boots: Kick Your Heels Up

No, this is not the most attractive boot. Not in the least, but that doesn’t mean it won’t grab your attention. It unquestionably catches the eye, even if the overall effect is a bit of an eyesore.

If you’ve managed to hold out this long without a good, basic, classical tote, listen carefully: You need a tote. Everyone can use a tote.

Look of the Week: What Mom Wants

In honor of Mother’s Day, I’m shaking things up a bit. This may not be a complete look, per se – although with these gifts, toss me a pair jeans and a T-shirt and you won’t hear me complain! It’s more of a wish list – a dream wish list. Hey, I’m an accessories girl. … Continue reading “Look of the Week: What Mom Wants”
