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.

Question! Am I right in believing that ankle-strap flats make my legs look stubby? (I’m 5’3″) Another question! Any suggestions for how a petite person can pull off the look? Does length of skirt matter?
I’m 5’1″ and solve this problem by either choosing ankle-strap shoes that are closer to flesh tones or pairing the shoes with mini skirts and shorts that show a lot of leg.
I really want this trend to go away. The shoes are so cute but they’re really unflattering with my muscular calves.
Any advice on how to style these shoes? They are super cute but I can’t envision them with a complete outfit.
Red flats look good with black pants/skirts, navy pants/skirts or grey pants/skirts. You can also wear them with a navy stripe dress for casual attire. I like to wear mine with neutral pieces for extra pop.
