Too many shoe brands play it safe by selling each style in just a few neutral colors and maybe red if you’re lucky. Fortunately for us shoe “collectors”, Jessica Simpson shoes come in a much wider variety of colors and patterns. For example, these stylish Belina ballet flats come in over a dozen varieties (including plenty of neutrals, too).

Hmmm…. those sassy zebra print flats would be a nice addition to my own collection, don’t you think?

The colloquial expression “s/he’s got class” is used to indicate that a person has intelligence and savoir faire. While some sociologists say that ‘class’ is largely determined by where and to whom you were born, ‘class’ in the popular sense is something we can all have.

The key to being classy, is to be the best you possibly can be: in your dress, but also in your speech, manners, knowledge and skills. It’s about making the…

Sizes range from 5.5 to 12 and also include some wide sizes. Prices…

Some tops just beg to be worn with a gorgeous statement necklace like this stunning emerald and diamond necklace. It’s the sort of necklace that would perfectly complement an elegant evening gown without being eclipsed by it.

Don’t worry, though, if there aren’t many formal events on your calendar. It would look just as dazzling with many other tops, especially ones that reveal a good bit of your d©colletage.

It’s easy to imagine such a artfully crafted…

Hats are still popular this season and I’m once again thrilled to see so many fabulous hats to choose from! A great casual hat like this plaid belted bucket hat from Gap is an easy way to add a lot of style to even the most ho-hum casual outfit. It’s so cute, in fact, that I bought one in the black and pink plaid just the other day — and used it to cover a bad…

When this month’s Elle arrived with a gorgeous black and white cover, it had to be read immediately. I’m glad it didn’t go into my pile of unread mags because when I read it, I spotted something interesting: a story very like a post I wrote last year.

The Elle story reports that fashion designers wear the same look for years, while they push a new look onto us every single season — much like my post that…
