The Temptress


Today's Haute Topic: Velvet and lace, chunky heels, and stockings with garter belts

If you admire the romantic style of women such as the willowy Greta Garbo or the slim and sultry Anais Nin, add that vintage touch to your wardrobe. Kenzie and Seychelles both have beautiful collections of pumps, wedges, and slingbacks with a 1930s - 40s twist.
