Some of my favorites: Halter Tea-Length Dress: on sale right now for … [Read more...]
Let’s Talk Bathing Suits
April 14, 2011
Deep Breaths. It's not that bad. Promise. For so many of us, bathing suits are a dirty word. But bathing suits have come a long way, ladies!

A Fresh Look at Talbot’s
April 13, 2011
