Cropped on the Comeback

Reds
Much like smoking slippers and monogrammed pieces, cropped trousers are an article of clothing every woman should have in her closet. Adaptable for a wide range of occasions, this workwear staple is surprisingly flattering for most figures; try a pleated style if you want a roomier, thigh-concealing fit, while flat-front versions offer a slimmer silhouette. Even better: the ankle-grazing hemline adds a touch of femininity to this menswear-inspired essential and perfectly highlights a standout pair of heels. A wardrobe classic to be sure, cropped trousers have certainly seen their fair share of updates over the years, but this season's renditions prove to be a cut above the rest. Rich fabrics and of-the-moment prints demand the spotlight, while lending the pants a fall-appropriate look. Want to know which styles to look for? Read on…

Loafer Love!!!

Reds
Loafers. Smoking slippers. Dandy slippers. Flats. Whatever you call em, I love em!! lol! I'm not that into sneakers -I'll look at em but I'm not paying $150+ for shoes that I know wont be worn for their purpose i.e. Jordans that never see a basketball court! Nope, not I! Although I am the chick that will spend the same $150 on a pair of heels that I only wear once a year. Call it a contradiction, I don't care, I'm a heel girl! lol! The only problem with that is I'm not Coco, I can't wear heels all day, everyday, 365. My back would curse me out & I'm occasionally clumsy so I'd probably end up tripping over cords at the news station! On my heels-off days I like…
