Not a Blogger: A Corporate Fashun Blog

We love a good series, as we’ve noted before . This new series is all about introducing (I’m sure you already got that part) you to new products and brands that you may not know about. The brand/product may not necessarily be new, but it’s something that is new to us, and we want to give you our honest feedback on what works and what doesn’t. Because why should all 6 of our readers waste money on the same damn thing only to find out that those bloggers only raved about it because they were paid to? You don’t have to worry that we’re not honest, because we aren’t paid for content because no one reads our blog. (HELLO???? Anyone there?!?!) Readers, we would like to introduce you to clothing brand MM. LaFleur. Katie 1 and Katie 2 heard about this from a few bloggers a while back, when boxed services were all the rage. MM. La Fleur is not a subscription service. You can go to their website and shop just like you do anywhere else. What is a little unique is you can get what the...

When writing the Shoes Day Tuesday post on shoes every woman should own , we realized that we aren't as original as we thought when it comes to our shoe collections. Sure, we have go-to brands that show up in our closet often. But what really struck us here at Not a Corporate Fashun Blog is that we have the same style shoe in multiple colors. So here is our post on those shoe styles that we love so much that we bought them more than once: Kate Spade Licorice Pump : So Katie 2 loves this shoe . She has it in 2 colors now, and every time she's browsing she has to stop herself from buying 10 more. Every website or store you go to has these pumps in various colors and patterns- everything from patent leather ( red or black   or hot pink   or black and white polka dot ) to floral , to plain black leather , to black glitter , or suede ( grey , red , green , nude , or look to the right for the navy pair that Katie 2 already has) to crackle  or animal print   or ...

One of our favorite things to emphasize here at Not a Corporate Fashun Blog is our real working budgets.  We love to discuss where we spend and where we save but occasionally we see an item that we fall so completely in love with that we very much wish we had the clothing budget of the bloggers we love to hate.  Katie 1 had that experience today with this  Ralph Lauren equestrian dress (image taken from the Ralph Lauren website). She loves the equestrian print, the movement of the fabric and the general "I've arrived" look of this dress and can imagine it styled a million different ways.  Dressed up (like in the picture) with cognac or oxblood pumps and a belt! Dressed down with tights and riding boots!  Obsessed!  So what if it costs more than her mortgage.  Actually that is a problem. She really needs to win the lottery.  In the meantime, she will definitely be scouring the intrawebs for a more affordable option.
