Friday, November 28th, 2008

They are the ultimate symbol of femininity, power and sex appeal. From the sensible everyday allure of kitten heels to the deadly and confidence-exuding six-inch stilettos, heels are known for their devastating effect on men, and the women of the Greater Beaumont area are stirring up some serious shoe-envy this fall.
Patent leather, gladiator straps, wedge […]

“It has to do with the skinny jeans, which are really popular, too, and are good for this time of year,” said Kristina Stromness, stylist and manager at Lola Bella boutique at The Gateway […]

On Style: The Work-Fashion Generation Gap

Friday, November 28th, 2008

Are business suits a lie, enabling the wearer to cover up his or her true self? Or are they the armor one needs to do battle each day in the office?
Your answer to those questions may depend on your age, as I write in this week’s On Style column.
I have hundreds of emails from bewildered […]

fringe benefits

Friday, November 28th, 2008

Thanksgiving Fashion on a Shoe-String

Friday, November 28th, 2008

Aside from a fabulous Thanksgiving meal, I like to make an entrance when dinner is ready in at least a new fall blouse on Turkey-day.

Sole sisters scale new heights

Friday, November 28th, 2008

My mother falls squarely into the former camp. She is obsessed by the things, in real as well as in model form. She also hoards our baby shoes and stacks her closet with enough ankle boots and kitten heels (some still boxed and barely worn) to shoe a small army. As a young woman she […]

Fashion Q&A: flat shoes for work
