    I'm sorry Belle, but the pink one is hideous. The piping would make anyone look fat. Just say no.

    I don't know about these tops. I tried one on from Ann Taylor in black and I felt like I was wearing a cheesy 80s prom dress as a top.

  3. Katie says:

    Ohh I love the first one! I can just imagine it looking amazing with a pair of dark straight jeans and heels

  4. Ash says:

    I'm always so hopeful with shirts like these but I think I end up looking like I am wearing a costume. The one from the Gap looks like the 'puff' is pretty slight, so maybe it could work.

  5. Belle says:

    I wasn't crazy about the middle one either…thought about skipping it entirely, since that price range seemed to be void of options. Probably should've just put two. 250 10th Commandments a year, not all of them can be amazing.

  6. D says:

    I like the Gap one the best – but I agree about the sleeve puff and would have to see how big it is in person first.

    Anne Shirley would approve.

    D-

    Kudos for the childhood literary reference

  8. Kim says:

    Yay! For once I like the one that is the most affordable option the best. Good choice with the Gap one, Belle.

    I don't think the middle one is that bad. I also think part of the reason it looks less-than-stellar is the odd pose/strange photoshopping going on in that picture.

    Belle, I always appreciate the 10th Commandment posts. I'm sure it is difficult to come up with that many different things to display!

Monday Morning: December 5, 2023

This weekend, I got two hours to myself for the first time in months. Really to myself. My child was asleep. My dogs were asleep. Kyle was off playing cards with his friends. My house was clean, and there was nothing else to do but sit in my bed and scroll Instagram. It was glorious. […]

The Counter: The Post-Product Era

When I was in my 20s, I bought every trendy nail polish, eye color, and lip gloss.  Sure, I could only wear them on the weekends, but why not wear emerald green liner?  In my 30s, I became enamored with skincare and took every “must-have” product for a spin.  But in my 40s, my skin […]
