I just  spent the last few months restructuring my Fall-Winter wardrobe and donating/selling the shoes that I haven’t worn in a while.  I call this my shoe churn rate.  Now, for a shoe lover like me, I think in terms of justified shoe churn and […]

For many of us that live in DC apartments and condos with less and ideal closet space, it’s time to make that gradual shift of putting away the summer clothes and bringing out the Fall clothing.  Usually this task begins in September, but since we’ve […]

On my summer trip to Italy, I wandered into the Red Valentino Store in Taormina, Sicily.  Once I went through the summer sale items, made my way to the rear of the store to check out what was upcoming for the Fall 2017 season.  Along with […]
