White pumps before Memorial Day!!!

Well it is Southern California, so technically wearing white pumps pre-season is not really that big of a deal, Floridians do it year round, and of course there is always winter white…But these are pretty darn white. The reality is of course, I don't really care about wearing them pre-summer, but there is something sweetly old fashioned about following that rule. These are a brand called Varda, which was started in 1981, so if it wasn't clear enough from the pics, these are 80's gems. I really think they are so cute, and can't wait to wear them this summer. xo

This Blog comes from the heart and mind, (but mostly from the heart), of Amy Sklar, interior designer, mother, daughter, foodie, and lover of fashion.

I must admit, the driving force behind this blog was my need to somehow, some way, create a tribute to my dear mother Carole Lawrence. She was a great beauty, chef, friend and mother. Sadly, I lost her to cancer February 23rd 2013. Since beginning on February 23rd 2014 it has been my goal to wear a piece of her clothing, jewelry, or an accessory that she passed on to me, for a total of 365 days (Not in a row, sorry, I am also a mother of two, a small business owner, wife and friend. I tried to do it in a row, and it almost broke me.) I believe it is a fitting tribute to this incredible woman with the greatest sense of style I've ever known. A digital archive, a love letter, a journal, a remeberance for your children and future generations. I love you mom.
