There are two kinds of people in this world: People who eat cake on their birthdays and people who don’t. And some of the weirdos in the latter category (I said what I said) eat pie as an alternative. So if you’re a “birthday pie” eater with a late summer celebration coming up, may I […]
After Sloane was born, I developed a seething hatred for underwire bras. The trouble was that I had also developed a larger, slightly droopier bust. It was a cruel irony.
Our tween and teen nieces spent the first half of 2023 reviving our high school fashions. From peasant tops to low rises, I felt like I was back bopping to N’SYNC in my mint-green sedan for a minute. Now, our 20-something direct reports are bringing back the 2010s in a big way, and I am […]

For the past few years, the wardrobes of many influencers have tilted toward the beige and boring. I’m all for a good basic, but staple pieces can only take you so far. Sometimes, you need to wear something that has a little something extra, and this sale-priced tee certainly does.
They may be sparkly and cute, but those Louboutin's just look like stripper heels to me. Not the most cinstructive comment, but thought i'd post based on your last tweet.
I adore the Chinese Laundry, but don't quite know how to wear them …
I wasn't talking about my own blog. CHS does fine in the comments considering half of my readers are on the RSS feed only. There are two DC blogs that consistently brag about their high traffic but they have no comments. It makes no sense.
If I have 1/10th the traffic they claim to have, how come I have comments and they don't?

I think these shoes would look spectacular with an off white dress. Something flowy or pleated in chiffon. A subtle dress with a kickin' shoe.

I recently wore them to an event with a subdued navy chiffon dress. With sparkly shoes like any of these, I think restraint is the key—if you wear anything else bold or sparkly, you'll probably wind up looking like a teenager or a hooker.
