Spotlight: Glittery Shoes

I have to admit, I’ve never been much of a fan of glitter or sequined shoes. I guess my distaste for the trend goes back to my middle school days of girls abusing the idea of sparkling footwear, but recently, thanks to several higher end versions of the trend, they’re starting to agree with me.

Donning a pair of glittery shoes sure is festive for this holiday season, but you have to be very careful to do this right. Never overdo a trend that speaks volumes on it’s own.

Wear a subtle pair of glittery flats with an all black ensemble or pair some glittery pumps with a monochromatic dress.

Stand out, but make sure you’re not looking like those girls from middle school. You know who I’m talking about.

The Best Dressed Ladies At The 2013 Billboard Music Awards

Music award shows typically do not have the most well dressed attendees.

A Model Covering US Vogue Is A Rare Occurrence Today

Years ago, models were everything. They fronted every major campaign, walked down every runway, and were considered to be celebrities as much as Hollywood’s biggest blockbuster’s leading lady.

Questionable Product Names: The ‘Fatkini’

By no means am I always politically correct. Sometimes I say things that others would think are insensitive, but don’t get me wrong — certain questionable statements definitely get me to raise my eyebrows. Something that always makes me cringe is the use of the word “fat.” Being someone who has struggled with weight and [...]
