Aerosoles Are PERFECT for Stylish Gals on the Go

In the scheme of things, stylish shoes can be a dime a dozen. Don’t get me wrong- I love having amazing shoes and options, but have also had to part with many pairs before their prime, just because they totally KILL my feet. In Manhattan, your feet are your wheels, so why willingly abuse them? Courtesy of Aerosoles, I was able to pick out a pair of shoes from the new fall collection, and after seeing these Aerosoles Date Plum Suede Black Wedges, ($89.99, was $99.99), I knew they would look rockin’ with practically everything in my wardrobe.

The wedge isn’t terribly steep and the sueded sock and lining along with the diamond flex sole provide comfort when I’m hitting the pavement walking blocks at a time or merely running around the office. With any kind of suede shoe, it’s always important to remember to use a spray to protect them prior to use-I just used the Kiwi Protect All Shoe Spray, which seems to do the trick!

Keep Warm This Winter in a Cozy-Chic Cable-Knit Poncho (thefind Guest Post)

by

From our friends at thefind.com:

Given this upcoming winter season’s obsession with voluminous outerwear and cozy over-sized sweaters, I can’t decide if the reigning attitude towards sleeves is that they’re overrated, or need to be as big and flowy (and comfy!) as possible. Either way, despite what you may have learned in the past about avoiding shapeless pieces, it’s time to finally embrace the ultra-comfortable with cable-knit ponchos that are ready to take any of your fall-ready outfits and transition them for a toasty winter – just by throwing on one of these cozy outer layers. The beauty of the poncho is that its chunky knit keeps you warm and has that comforting sense of familiarity, but it somehow seems to exude a sort of effortless edginess and fashion-forwardness that just doesn’t come across with a more structured blazer or classic cardigan sweater. Top off a sleek dress and tights with a poncho for the ultimate way to warm up your walk outdoors, or throw on over a pair of leggings and riding boots for a casual-cool look for any day!
