When I think of mules, I think of clunky, cloven shoes that barely qualify as heels. But this recent trend toward sleeker pumps has me rethinking that characterization.

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.
Inside the reader mail bag there are questions about summer beauty, hiring a personal shopper, navigating a sudden breakouts, and more. Let’s dig in!
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.

Since Sloane was born, I’ve fallen hard into a black, white, and blue wardrobe. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but as spring blooms, I need a little color in my wardrobe (and probably a little print too). Here are a few tops that caught my eye for work.
I just cannot get myself to wear mules to work.Period. For weekend and night outs yes, for work, cannot get my mind to say yes.
I agree, even on a casual day. Work shoes need backs, at least a strap. I can’t…just…can’t.
I was thinking about them for under pants. I’m not sure I would wear them with a skirt. I definitely wouldn’t wear them with a suit, but maybe on Friday with a pleated skirt.
I have never had a pair of mules that didn’t make the “flop flop flop” sound as I walked down the hall. Not the most professional. Cute for a date night though!
Good point. I guess I’ll have to try on a few pair because I hate the clopping noise as well.
There used to something called Tiger Tape that I once used in desperation on a loose slingback strap. It worked like a charm, and didn’t damage the shoe or my heel. It might be worth it for this type of shoe-stick a piece of double sided tape to the sole.
