I never watched the movie The Purge but in my mind Black Friday is similar to what that movie is about. Half of society running around the city in a crazed manner shopping and rioting. The other half of society holed up in the safety of their homes waiting for the day to end. I’ll …
Middle age. Too young to not care about style and too old to put that much effort into it. Remember when we used to think “if it makes me look skinny or tall it’s worth any cost or pain to wear it”. At middle age, that way of thinking changes to “if it doesn’t scratch, …

The past few months I’ve had my eye on the Stuart Weitzman bestselling Lowland OTK boot and the SW Tieland OTK boot (OTK=over the knee).
