Readers Snap Their Style.
There is so much you can learn about style from watching the way other women dress.

BTW Style Challenge (Day 4).
The Mini. To Work. Yes you can. But (there’s always a but) there are some basic rules I suggest you follow: 1) Not all mini’s are created equal.

Day 3 Pant Challenge (The Palazzo).
Right, so I’ve established that I only own black pants. Little bit of coloured denim but proper pants not so much – just black.
