This blouse is perfect for layering. Wear it under crewnecks (short and long sleeved), funnel necks and blazers. Perfect for the office and well-suited for casual attire, this blouse would be a welcome addition to any wardrobe.
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.

Have a big day ahead? Major hearing? Big trial? The presentation of your life? Gonna be at a conference with that ex? Whatever it happens to be, these are the fashion weapons that get me to the confidence level that I need to be at.
Belle, I have an off-topic question for you or your readers. I don't work on the Hill, but I have started going to lectures there for my think tank job. The dress code for these types of events is a mystery to me. Is a suit necessary, or would a blazer with a dress or skirt be ok? Does it depend on whether or not Congress is in session? So far I have been more dressed up than most staffers, but I don't want to make a faux pas by not wearing a suit one day. Thanks for your fashion guidance!
Being more dressed up than a staffer isn't saying much these days. I went into a meeting yesterday and the man was wearing flip flops with cargo shorts. Weirdos.
A dress with blazer should be fine for in session days. For out of session days, you can go a bit more casual. Most staffers will be in jeans.
I say be more dressed up and revel in it, if the staffers dress down, that doesn't mean you have to.
Thanks for your always well-informed advice!
