Cordani Beckett Sandal Review

February 12, 2026

Cordani’s Beckett Sandal is the perfect, comfortable, high-quality sandal for spring/summer 2026!

I was introduced to Cordani Footwear last summer when I picked out this amazing pair of Wendy platforms as a gift. Cordani shoes are made in Italy and Spain and the quality is just superb. The Wendy shoes were so chic and so comfortable that I was more than happy to have another pair in my wardrobe.

This time I choose the Beckett Sandal. The suede on these sandals is so soft and luxe. I also love the cool tortoise buckle. The curved lines of the under-soles have a rocker effect that makes walking a dream! The sandals also have padded footbeds and arch support. Available in Black suede, Rosa suede, and this pretty neutral Sand Arena Suede. The modest platform means that this comfortable pair will be going everywhere with me, even traveling this summer!

Use code DAWN25 for 25% off when you shop the Cordani spring collection!

Also wearing a linen tunic (similar), Quince Bella Wide-Leg Jeans (in Twilight Fray). I’m carrying an old straw tote (this one is cute) and wearing beaded earrings (love these too).

Also on the blog lately, these fabulous barrel-leg jeans, which would also be totally chic with the Beckett sandal!

Fun & Fashion,

About the blog: Fashion Should Be Fun is me talking to you, other middle aged women like me who are over 40, but not over fashion.  We still want to look beautiful and stylish.  We still want to have fun with trends.  And we don’t need anyone giving us rules, because we’re all different. We all have our own shapes and bodies, parts we’d like to cover and parts we still don’t mind showing off a bit.  This is a place for me to share my love of fashion with you, style ideas, tips, trends, and inspiration. I know how liking the way we look can translate into confidence and energy. I know we have so much life left to live and so much adventure ahead of us. Let’s show the world you’re never too old to have fun and be fierce!

Quince’s Italian Leather Handwoven Satchel Review

February 5, 2026

This satchel bag is just perfection!

Handcrafted from 100% Italian leather, this bag looks and feels so luxurious. The woven design adds eye-catching texture and I love the interlocking knot detail. This satchel is available in six luscious shades including Black, Cognac, Taupe, Merlot, Sage, and Bone. The purse comes in a large and small version. I picked the large version, which is just the right size in my opinion. Big enough to carry of my important things in the multiple interior pockets, but not overwhelming to my overall look. Quince products are superior quality, sustainably made, and for such a good price. You won’t believe how luxe this satchel looks and feels.

Quince’s Oversized Bomber Jacket Review

January 27, 2026

I adore my Oversized Leather Bomber Jacket from Quince. It feels so luxe and looks so effortlessly cool for a date night.

I added in this photo from the Quince website. Even though I think my outfit photos are cute, I don’t think they show off the details of the jacket as well as I would’ve liked. In this shot, you can see the details.
