"Aging is not lost youth, but a new stage of opportunity and strength."
When it comes to the summer and the warmer temperatures, I usually go for long and flowy, but every once in a while I find something I didn’t know I was looking for. Comfort and style are always a priority for me, and I tend to think of pencil skirts as too tight and clingy […]
