A few months ago, my husband killed two of my plants. I was out of town for several weeks, and while I was away, he apparently forgot that plants need water to live. So when I returned, my snake plant and my Calamondin tree were both dead, while his braided money tree continued to thrive. […]
It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.
Inside the reader mail bag there are questions about summer beauty, hiring a personal shopper, navigating a sudden breakouts, and more. Let’s dig in!

And just like that, it’s April. Summer is almost upon us, and the retailers are filled with linen wares. Now, you know that I am usually unwilling to wear linen to work due to the wrinkles. But in this post-pandemic world, perhaps my mind can change.

I am moving to DC in July to take a job on the hill after graduating college. As a girl from Oregon, I know I have a lot to learn about dressing for success on the Hill. I love these shoes, but they aren’t appropriate for work are they?? I’m struggling as to what shoes I should buy for my job. Only closed toed? I hear it’s hot as hell in the summer time. I’m afraid my feet will die in closed toed heels all summer. Are sandals ever appropriate??
