Running a business doesn’t leave me much time to get ready for trips. Not that I’ve ever enjoyed packing, but now I truly don’t have the time to pack. I created the Sophia and Frances ensemble specifically with busy working, traveling women in mind. Now when I travel for work I usually pack this ensemble, […]
We all know that famous line from “The Devil Wears Prada” about the cerulean blue sweater, but there’s so much more to color. It’s not just about picking your favorite color to wear. There are thousands of books written on the psychology of color how it affects your behavior, and how you can manipulate others with […]
As working women we’re all looking for that magic bullet that will save us a few minutes here, or an hour there so that we can get more things done each day. You can’t change the number of hours in the day, but you can change how you spend them, which matters more to your […]
When it comes to timeless 90’s style icons, Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy is at the top of that list. Her style represents the best of the 90’s and really some of the best of the 20th century. I graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1998 and Carolyn was the “It” girl. I […]

Though I strive to show how versatile our items are in our Why Don’t You section of the Senza Tempo Journal and in or social media, I always feel like more classic style always peeks through. Which is why I was thrilled to partner with Andrea Serrano of Charleston Shop Curator to style the Brigitte. […]
Selling direct to our clients eliminates the middle man, thus MULTIPLE levels of additional markup. We sell direct in order to provide the best value to our clients at the outset. We don’t have seasonal collections and we don’t have seasonal sales. In a former life, I was a foreign exchange sales-trader at various major […]
