    Try as I might, I just can't get behind the bootie trend. And I will never understand peep-toe booties.

  2. Rebecca says:

    Eeek. I'm all for booties but believe studs belong only on items that are meant to give off the punk-rock vibe. Flat head studs remind me of what I hated about the 80's. Especially on light tan or peep toe booties.

    I hate the peep toe booties, but love the other options. peep toe booties are the current oxymoron of fashion

  4. Stephanie says:

    I can't get behind booties, either, and peep-toe booties in particular.

  5. lulu says:

    Booties can be cute (see the last pair here). Peep-toe booties, not so much.

    Also, what does it say about me that lately I tend to like the cheaper options better in the 10th commandments posts? Maybe I just have cheap tastes…

  6. jessie says:

    Hey lulu – it means that you are developing an eye for what looks great that transcends pricetag. I like those the best too.

    I love the Candelas, and I love booties. In fact, I think I need a 12 step program for booties. Lovely blog!!!

    Not a look I think most female elected officials would be anxious to embrace.

    Perhaps Sarah Palin, but despite her presence she's not elected.

The Find: A Striped Tee

Without question, the most worn item in my wardrobe is a black-and-white striped tee. I wear it in winter under sweaters, in spring with white jeans, in summer with black shorts. I’ve been wearing the same one for years (it’s the best). But they don’t make it anymore. So here are some options for replacement.

Three Outfits I’ll Wear All Spring

When I started this blog, influencers still re-wore clothes. There were no haul videos filled with the latest from Shein before it winds up in a beach in Ghana poisoning the planet. There were no sponsored campaigns delivering fresh wardrobes each month. The content machine doesn’t like reruns.

The Find: Like a McCall’s Pattern

When I was young, my Mother used to bring me along when she would go shopping for fabric. As a result, I spent a lot of time, killing time, flipping through pattern books. So when I spotted this dress, I was instantly transported to the pattern table at a Jo-Ann Fabrics.
