How to Wear Black Skinny Flare-Leg Trousers: I tore this page out of my Lucky Mag back in September, or possibly, last week because I love saving those things to use as inspiration. Case in point, this Lucky ‘how-to’ article on minimalist dressing. Sure, I went with the ‘how-to-wear‘ theme, but that’s nothing to this [...]

Sam Edelman’s Pump & How to Wear It: Don’t let the sweetie-pie facade on the front of this peep-toes confuse you. This rose of a pump has thorns. The silver, spike-covered heel shows it’s face when these puppies walk away from the scene of the crime. Soft vs. hard, yin vs. yang, masculine vs. feminine, [...]
