Saturday Half-Circle Skimmers ($90)

After last week, I was going to take a break from shoes.  Then, I spotted these skimmers and went week in the knees.

Kate Spade Saturday is a relatively new retail venture that combines the playful aesthetic of Kate Spade with younger, more modern shapes.  These gorgeous flats come in this pretty magenta, a bold orange, a subtle taupe and basic black.  I also love the mix of leather and suede.

I’m also loving these Nine West Razzie skimmers with their scalloped vamp.  If you’d like a color, Target has a few great options like these emerald-green flats from Merona and these blush flats from Mossimo.  Steve Madden has an ankle strap flat that comes in several colors.  And if it’s suede you’re after, J.Crew has the CeCe flat in some wonderful fall shades.

Colored flats are a great addition to your wardrobe.  They pump up basic pieces and brighten your wardrobe and your day.  If you don’t have a pair, I suggest you pick one up in your favorite color.

Look for Less

    Love! My life will not be complete until I own an pair in orange. Perhaps a bit of an exaggeration, but WOW. I need!

Happy Hour: Atlantic Beach Pie

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 […]

The Find: The Only Wire-Free Bra That Didn’t Fail Me

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.

The 2010s Trends I’m Loving and Leaving Behind

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 […]
