10th Commandment: May 12

Ungaro Fever Top (Yoox, $95)

I like sequins for work.  I think that if you wore this tank under a belted cardigan or with a black suit, it look would look lovely.  I’ve worn sequins to work probably once a week for three years, and only once has someone said anything to me.  

Two months ago, a man asked where my disco ball was.  I was perturbed.  But I’m not about to take fashion tips from a man wearing black jeans and sandals.  So I win.

Sequins can be worn at work, sparingly.  Enjoy.

Look for Less

    Agreed, sequins are fun. Worn right, a style for any occasion.

The Find: The Only Wire-Free Bra That Didn’t Fail Me

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.

The 2010s Trends I’m Loving and Leaving Behind

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 […]
