Best Bet: Metallic Flat Shoes

ASOS - Moment Metallic Flat Shoes - asos.com
Think ahead--go for the gold with metallic flat shoes.  Although they are shiny as a silver dollar when they are new, they gain character and personality with age.  According to nymag.com:

"Gold bullion meets streamlined comfort with ASOS's metallic flat shoes, perfect for adding flare to dark woolly stockings through winter's chill. As pristine as they look brand-new, they'll look even cooler as they crease and age into an unusual texture — you can look forward to wearing them with looks that call for an avant-gardeshoe this spring." -nymag.com

Throwback Thursday: Michael Kors

The now re-elected First Lady Michelle Obama chose her Michael Kors dress again on Tuesday's election night.  Is her dress a good luck charm?  The First Lady has great fashion sense and style: Michael Kors.

So, let's refresh our memories about who Michael Kors the designer is:

"Michael Kors has come a long way from 'selling at Bergdorf Goodman and Saks' in the early 80's.  From creative director and designer at Celine, he's established himself and his quality products as a household name.  Not to mention 'he won the CFDA Award for Womenswear Designer of the Year in 1999 for Michael Kors Collection' as well. 'With flagship stores in most major cities, popular fragrance and home lines ... Michael Kors remains a powerful brand in the American fashion landscape." -biography.com 

Thank you, First Lady Michelle Obama, we look forward to having another great four years of inspirational fashion.

Michelle Obama: What Should She Wear? - wwd
Congratulations to President Obama and especially to Our First Lady Michelle Obama.

"While much of the glee centers around the President ... Michelle Obama radiates a powerful style all her own. So step aside, Angelina. You too, Madonna, not to mention the bevy of pop tarts, gossip girls, ... and even potential Oscar divas, now all suddenly [seem] second-tier. The American fashion industry hasn’t had a catch this big since, well, since..." the last election!

We can't get over her exquisite fashion sense and graceful style.  Here's a throwback to 2008... read more here.
