THE #ArtOfFun WITH DONALD J PLINER SHOES

The Steele Maiden: Art of Fun - Donald J Pliner Shoes for Spring

To me, having fun means you’re not trying too hard and just living in the moment. Fun is carefree and easy and doesn’t complicate things. It’s wearing a show-stopping pair of shoes out to get $6 dumplings in the middle of a Sunday afternoon.. just for the hell of it. I like fun. So when Donald J Pliner asked me to be a part of their Spring campaign – aptly titled #ArtofFun – I certainly didn’t have to overthink it.

TURTLENECK SWEATER AND METALLIC FLATS

Between seasons - neutrals and metallic flats

I swear this has been the weirdest ‘winter’ I can remember (and that includes the 2 we spent living in Los Angeles – because at least that weather was consistent).

SHIRTDRESS AND SUEDE BOOTIES

The Steele Maiden: Old Navy Eyelet Shirtdress and Sole Society Suede Booties

If I had to make a list of my essential Spring pieces, a pair of neutral suede ankle boots would be pretty near the top. The weather is warm enough that I’ve been walking everywhere, but still cool enough that sandals aren’t really an option. So booties it is. And there’s barely an item in my closet that isn’t a match.
