Several ruined shoes, and episodes of freezing feet later, I’m singing a different tune. From classes to a night in the city, read on to learn how to wear boots for any occasion!

Trendy Tuesdays: Peplum Pretty
10 Jan
Whoever thinks it’s ‘hip to be square’, has clearly never worn a peplum. Peplum is a Greek word meaning tunic, and were worn by Ancient Greeks to celebrate a woman’s hips.
