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.

Since Sloane was born, I’ve fallen hard into a black, white, and blue wardrobe. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but as spring blooms, I need a little color in my wardrobe (and probably a little print too). Here are a few tops that caught my eye for work.

This week, I fell mindlessly into my phone more than I think I ever have. My screen time went from 3.5 hours per day to 5 hours per day. But the increased eye strain did lead to some good finds. Just going to leave this right here. (I really need to work on “Didn’t make […]

For eight years, I have worn the same workout shorts. Every year, an influencer tries to sell me new shorts. I order them. I try them on. They pale in comparison to the shorts I already own. I return them.

I think I like the “Unpaid Intern” version the best. These are beautiful Belle!
Those are such pretty dresses! They just wouldn't look right with my body type, unfortunately. A girl can dream, though!
I really like the Kay Unger one! It makes me wonder if I could pull off a red dress like that at a fed office building…
Belle, why did you have to tease me? That Dorothy Perkins dress is out of stock. (pouty face)
Hi fiiiiiiive! I'm overseas right now… if you like these, try searching some of the UK sites for peplum dresses and jackets as well. They've got fun ones. Thanks for the posts!
Oh ha, Dorothy Perkens. You're way ahead…
Ginny, I'm with you. These are lovely, but, unfortunately, they would all look dreadful on someone with my body type. Sigh.
You ladies might be surprised. I thought a peplum would look awful on me cause I'm a definite pear shape, but I tried one on in a size bigger than I usually wear, and once the salesgirl pinned the top up to fit me, it looked great.
