The former competitive dancer in me is jumping with glee, because jazz shoes are becoming a mainstay among the biggest shoe trends of the year. If you aren’t familiar, these lace-up shoes are made with the same soft, supple leather you might find in a ballet flat—but oh, are they so much cooler. More masculine than their pretty counterpart, these are set to be the It shoe of the moment; I plan to buy myself a pair in lieu of sneakers for times when I want an unexpected touch of polish (and how chic would they look with shorts for summer?!).
Every woman knows the power of the work bag—you know, the hold-everything carryall that can fit a laptop and then some (maybe even a pair of commuter shoes, if you’re like me). Well, I found a new one from DeMellier’s lineup that you most definitely need in your arsenal. I could wax poetic about this bag, but go on—read everything you need to know about this sleek, chic, and suede (!) bag yourself.
