Casualization of the Wardrobe and Apologizing for What I Wear

When I was in my early 20s, people would often ask why I was “so dressed up” and it got really annoying.  As if it’s really weird to wear dresses and heels on a weekend.  It still happens once in a while now that I’m in my 30s, but never in my area – I […]

While blacks, browns and tans are the standard tones for shoes, it never hurts to have some colour, especially pinks and oranges. Here are some shoes that you may want to try which go well much of your closet, yet remain neutral enough that it isn’t too glaring – save that for your clothes and […]
