I have had a fascination with medieval knights, castles, and damsels in distress since I was a wee one pretending with my Barbie dolls that Sir Lancelot was coming to save […] Read more…
A woman can never have enough pairs of shoes. And I certainly am not one to deny myself the pleasure of acquiring more, especially if I can get them at a great deal. So when I got an email from Aldo for an exclusive A-List event, I immediately RSVP’d and counted down the days until […] Read more…
