The big day is supposed to be the perfect day of every bride’s life. They want everything from a single pin in their hair to the tip of their toe to embody perfection, taste, and elegance. Although usually, it’s the dress that gets all the attention and hype, many other elements also go into completing the entire style! One of those important elements is shoes. Yes, shoes! Since Cinderella found true love because of a glass slipper she left behind, every bride wants to fit their feet into that perfect shoe that will complete their fairytale wedding. So, if you…

Fashion and function were once thought to be mutually exclusive. Comfort and performance were regarded as unfashionable, and it was accepted that appearing nice occasionally came with a side order of agony.

Approaching high-performance, technical, look utilitarian clothes from a style aspect, the movement’s brands and designers demonstrated to the world that fashion and function didn’t have to be mutually exclusive. In fact, they might be able to help each other. It wasn’t long before Virgil Abloh was wearing arcteryx shells down the runway and Prada was creating Gore-Tex jackets.…

Mine was, “You have really shiny hair.” I do have shiny hair sometimes. So my guy friend who complimented me got a “Thank you” in return. However, I actually don’t strive for shiny hair. It’s just an effect of the frizz cream I use. I probably would have liked a “Your eyes look especially beautiful today, Jillian.” Except, that probably would have been weirder and a tad inappropriate since he’s just a friend. This morning in the elevator, a delivery guy turned to the girl standing behind me and said, “You’ve got some nice eyebrows.” She was clearly weirded out.…

Accepting compliments is a tricky business—so much so that I mostly feel uncomfortable receiving any compliment of any kind. I know that some people are able to gracefully accept compliments, but I have yet to master how to do that. I don’t think I’m alone here—it’s a pretty universal thing that women deflect, self-deprecate, change the subject, or implode, instead of simply saying “thank you.” Just today, somebody said that my hair looked nice, and I responded with, “It’s filthy,” like an unimaginable ingrate. Amy’s bit on how women are loathe to accept complements nails it. Heads up, the video’s got…

Granted, I hadn’t known anyone who had done it, but there was something so whimsical about picking up from where you live and pretty much, well, almost, trading lives with another person. And when the person lives in a foreign country, to me, that seemed even more divine. I’m a big fan of picking up and fleeing town.…

Do you have any personal style rules when you’re traveling, or do you wear whatever pair of sweatpants are the cleanest? The airport, man. Is there any better place on earth to watch people? I once spent nine hours in the Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier Airport, waiting for a flight to take me home for Christmas, and my God, the stories I could tell you. People were crying. People were dancing. People were painting their fingernails, clipping their toenails, snoring, drooling, laughing, and eating. Strange human behavior aside, the best part about people watching at the airport is checking out what your…

One can get a wide variety of footwear, bags for girls, or even western dresses online in attractive designs and prices, which can be very lucrative. However, footwear for girls online can be pretty risky. You don’t get to try out the shoes and walk in them to see if they are comfortable.
