There are two kinds of people in this world: People who eat cake on their birthdays and people who don’t. And some of the weirdos in the latter category (I said what I said) eat pie as an alternative. So if you’re a “birthday pie” eater with a late summer celebration coming up, may I […]

After Sloane was born, I developed a seething hatred for underwire bras. The trouble was that I had also developed a larger, slightly droopier bust. It was a cruel irony.

Our tween and teen nieces spent the first half of 2023 reviving our high school fashions. From peasant tops to low rises, I felt like I was back bopping to N’SYNC in my mint-green sedan for a minute. Now, our 20-something direct reports are bringing back the 2010s in a big way, and I am […]

Have to say that I wasn't sure about sure about sheer heels, until I tried on the Classiques Entier shoe you mentioned. (Bought 'em for my rehearsal dinner in July.) Surprisingly comfortable, airy and slightly sexy. I haven't considered wearing them to work, though. Perhaps with trousers.
Call me old fashioned, but I think these are all completely inappropriate for work. The last pair of pumps look downright trashy.
Not every thing on the site is meant to be worn at work, there are other occasions in life.
Agreed — and thank goodness we have other things to do besides work! I think fall gets me in some kind of a “back to school” mindset where I'm thinking all work all the time.
