The Sneakers Edit

The Sneakers Edit

The sneakers edit is really a guide to choosing between polish, texture and actual visual energy. I want a pair that can take the casualness out of a dress, but I do not want a technical shoe pretending to be a minimalist one. My rule is simple: choose the material and shape first, then decide how much logo, shine or mesh you can live with.

Shoes Under $300

Shoes Under $300

Shoes under $300 are not a consolation category. They are where the useful wardrobe usually gets built, provided you judge the shoe by shape, sole, and fit instead of by the size of the discount. I want a flat that can walk, a pump that can hold its line, and a wedge that gives h

The Tote Bag For Work That Holds Everything

The Tote Bag For Work That Holds Everything

Satin for evening, chosen for weight and finish rather than shine.

Designer Leather Bags

Designer Leather Bags

Designer leather bags are worth considering when the material and the carrying shape make a persuasive case together. I want to know whether the bag is a shoulder shape, a tote, a mini or a clutch, then whether the leather is smooth, textured, trimmed, quilted or doing something

Shoulder Bags Under $250

Shoulder Bags Under $250

How to Style the Heart Purse

Coloured Sunglasses For Every Face Shape

Coloured Sunglasses For Every Face Shape

Face shape is a useful starting filter for Valentino Chain Sunglasses, but proportion matters more than the category name. Contrast works: an angular frame on a round face, a softer one on a strong jaw.

Best Leather Tote Bags

Best Leather Tote Bags

The best leather tote bags are not the biggest ones. They are the ones that carry the day without turning your shoulder into a complaint, and that keep their shape when the contents are less than beautifully edited. This is a guide to totes with enough structure for work, enough

Building A Jewelry Collection From Zero

Building A Jewelry Collection From Zero

Building a jewelry collection from zero is easier when the first pieces have different jobs. A necklace creates a focal point near the face, while earrings bring light to the look without requiring a neckline that cooperates. The smartest starting point is not a matching suite. It is a small set of
