Weekend Observations: How A Simple Shirt Both Made And Broke Me

No Comments 19 May 2013

About month ago I spoke in front of a mix of clients.  I wore an outfit that I realized may not be perfect for my bod camera-wise but is still kinda cool.  The top is a black leather, peplum top.  It’s both cute and a bit of rock-n’-roll, and I’ve received quite a few compliments [...]
