Starting last week, we took a close look at all the various shoe styles that are currently waiting to be snapped up by shoe-loving ladies. Here are seven more:
As I stood clutching a gray suede slip-on priced at $1,350 (my favorite) I said, “Now really, does anyone actually buy these shoes?” There was a brief pause before he answered, “We’re almost sold out.” That stopped me cold.
For the rest of us, sneakers are usually made of canvas or leather and are very comfortable. They can be used as a running or walking shoe.
Purchasing shoes has changed drastically thanks to a Las Vegas-based company named Zappos. Founded in 1999, it is one of the world’s largest online shoe stores partly because of its free return policy. In my office, one co-worker had 20 Zappos shoe boxes in her cubicle. When I said, “Wow, you’re buying lots of shoes!” She replied, “Oh no, they’re all going back.”
MAY WE SUGGEST… Summer travel can be carefree with our eclectic selection: we offer everything from boyshorts to body suits to camis.

I just read an article that sounded – to me at least – like “a canary in a coal mine” or an early warning of danger. This piece, written by Joe Pompeo, appeared in the May 2020 issue of Vanity Fair magazine with the title “The British Tabloid Invasion” and a subtitle that read, “How the Daily Mail is conquering American gossip.”

Apparently the good old U.S. is a nation of “not great” sleepers. Really? And I thought I was the only one! According to a recent study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention it was revealed that one out of three Americans are chronically sleep-deprived. Yikes!

I think we’re all taken by the incredible mystique of the famous French fashion house, Hermès that has been with us for two centuries and is still owned and operated by the same family. From its beginnings in fine equestrian leather goods, they are – in the tumultuous year 2020 – best known for their handbags and many other items.
My image of Hermès has always been rarified products at equally rarified prices so imagine my surprise when I recently received a very stylish publication of theirs in the mail.
