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 […]

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

Kudos for the childhood literary reference
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!
