Adoring Axara and American Rag

Alliteration anyone (almost!)? On a recent trip to New Jersey, my mother-in-law and I visited a wonderful little boutique named Angel Hearts in New Hope, PA. There I discovered the French designer Axara and all I can say is: J'adore Axara. Axara mixes lace and embroidered pieces with French elegance and feminine allure creating silhouettes that are flattering for any figure type. 

At the same time that I fell in love with Axara, I received my first pair of American Rag wedges. American Rag is a relatively new brand being sold exclusively at Macy's. Not only are the Gracii espadrille heels flirty with a vintage feel, but incredibly comfortable despite their 4-1/2" wedge height. And they complement the Summer/Spring 2013 Axara clothing line theme to an "A"!

Axara meet American Rag - love at first pairing!
