Which one would you choose? I’m not linking to them because I don’t want price/designer to influence your decision And if you DO know the designers of each skirt, pretend you don’t. (I’ll add the links tomorrow) I’d choose THAT skirt because the THIS skirt is a bit too short for my taste. THAT skirt [...]

Holiday shopping days are upon us! (or are you finished already?) We really don’t do a lot of gift-giving in my family but it certainly doesn’t mean that I don’t enjoy shopping for them, or dreaming about what I’d love to receive And generally that’s how I approach gift-shopping: if I love it, they’ll love [...]
