24/7 Flats

You know those not-so-fresh days?

You know those not-so-fresh days? Even I have moments of style slaking when I really just want to run my errands in a pair of Chucks and an old hoodie. However, I have a reputation to upkeep. Not that there's anything wrong with dressing casual, it's just a disgrace to my collection of 24/7 flats. Meaning flats that are so fabulous they work around the clock, because of glam details like rhinestones, glitter, and pearls. As this week's Life&Style points out, even divas-in-the-making like Rihanna tone things down with a pair, but not too much. Really, all you need is a white tee, an easy-going pair of jeans and you're stylish — 24/7.

FABTV: The Knack "My Sharona"

I dare you to watch this and resist tapping a toe or bopping your head — this song is catchy as sh@t.

I dare you to watch this and resist tapping a toe or bopping your head — this song is catchy as sh@t. It achieved worldwide fame because of the '90s defining film Reality Bites, but I remember hearing this as a wee lassie. It still makes me shimmy in my seat. The simplistic set — stark white walls, and shirts, with stripes of black — was the right call. With such a rockin' song there's no need for special effects and eye candy. It's all about the song and that cute guitarist with shaggy, curly hair. My Sharona!
