My dark under eye circles have been the bane of my existence since I was 12. Is the cause lack of sleep? Dehydration? Sinus issues? Stress? Who the hell knows. But there they are, every day, telling the world that I am an exhausted working Mom.

Every now and again, I spot a piece on sale and I have to have it. I need it. I cannot live without it. Recently, I spotted a jersey tee at Boden that takes a casual top to the next level, and I just needed to share.

Sloane loves the pool. She jumps from the deck into the water with a crash, never considering her own safety, only to emerge on the surface, shouting “Again!” The pool is my daughter’s happy place. But no place where I need to wear a swimsuit in public is a happy one for me.

The Crowdstrike/Microsoft Meltdown forced me to take a few days off this weekend. No laptop. No billable hours. So we packed Sloane up for a visit to a local llama farm, stopped by the pool, went for coffee, etc. Few things are as funny as watching a 23-month old feed carrots to a ravenous rescue […]

Bella,
I have been meaning to ask you about Asos. I am studying aboard and they are the only company that does not charge an arm and a leg to ship to Belgium. What do you think for their quality?
Thanks!
I am wondering the same. I haven't ordered from Asos yet. I love that blouse, though!
Asos is basically a department store. Some of the pieces are House brands and some are known brands (Karen Millen, etc.). I've had good luck with the two pieces that I have purchased from there, but you really need to measure yourself to figure out your size cause returns are a hassle.
I am a 2/4 top and a 4/6 bottom, so I order a UK 8 shirt and a UK10 dress. I would rather pay money to alter the 10 if it's too big than order the 8 and feel like I'm wearing a sausage casing.
