 If you follow my blog, you know that I am a lover of shoes! I have way too many pairs for one just woman, but for a good reason. As many women know, shoes are always a great choice to buy because they always fit. You can’t say the same when you’re shopping for clothes. With the colder seasons upon us, boots are very much appropriate, and the endless style options make it even more exciting to browse through. One of my favorite brands is M. Gemi. I can confidently say that I own more M.Gemi shoes than any other brand in my closet. If they come out with a new shoe, I am right on there buying it in, sometimes, every color they have available. There are many reasons why I am so crazy and on the verge of obsessed with this brand: First of all, all their shoes and boots are handmade in Italy. M.Gemi’s primary mission is to provide beautiful shoes handmade by professional Italian artisans, and at the same time having each shoe affordably priced. M. Gemi’s selection of styles, including pointed toe flats, driving moccasins, sandals, heels, and boots, are all beautifully designed and extremely classic to last you through the years. No matter the season, I am always impressed with their attention to detail with every shoe they produce. They are able to incorporate popular trends into their designs while also keeping them timeless. Most importantly, the comfort each shoe allows is unreal. Even the majority of their heels are so easy on the foot, which is not typical for fashionable shoes. This probably is due to the professional artisans they have designing each shoe. Another reason why M. Gemi is such a great company is because all the materials they use are of top quality. This goes hand-in-hand with being handmade in Italy, but it is worth noting. Not all brands, even some expensive brands, can say this about all of their products. Finally, to top it all off, M. Gemi is founded by a woman, Maria Gangemi. As many of you know, I am a big supporter of other women in business, especially when their vision alines with mine. I love seeing women supporting other women in general because MORE often than not they have extraordinary company values and quality products. Women’s FavoritesNow let’s get into my top three favorite boots M.Gemi is offering this season.

I want this blog to be a forum for women my age to be able to discuss everything beauty and fashion, as well as the more sensitive subjects such as menopause and healthy aging. I'm starting my sixties, and I feel the best I have in years, and I want to help other women feel the same way. As a community, I think we can come together and start the conversation. This is all about women supporting other women and trying to have some fun in the meantime. Attention Ladies: We'd love to hear from you! Your questions are driving the discussions. Don't hesitate to comment, especially on the "Real Talk" series as well as "Glowing with Mrs. Stafford." Without you, there is no discussion, so don't be shy!
