A few months ago, my husband killed two of my plants. I was out of town for several weeks, and while I was away, he apparently forgot that plants need water to live. So when I returned, my snake plant and my Calamondin tree were both dead, while his braided money tree continued to thrive. […]

It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.

And just like that, it’s April. Summer is almost upon us, and the retailers are filled with linen wares. Now, you know that I am usually unwilling to wear linen to work due to the wrinkles. But in this post-pandemic world, perhaps my mind can change.

Does anybody have any experience with the quality/fit/comfort of Sam Edelmans? I've been looking for a sandal very much like these, but was going to budget up to $100 … Thanks!
KLo – I have two pairs of flat beaded sandals from Sam Edelman. They have held up very well (both pairs are three years old), haven't lost any of the beads or anything and the soles are still in good shape too. They fit pretty true to size for me – I wear a 7.5, my roommate thinks they're a tiny bit narrow, but her foot is wider than mine… Hope that helps! -C
Mine were only $60 (Gigi, I think; a more simple flat T strap). I wore them A LOT and they held up well all last summer.
I have been eyeballing a similar style in this pair of Lela Rose for Payless for a few weeks now…but I am weary that they will be uncomfortable and that I should just go for the Sam Edelmans.
