As I age, I notice many changes in my body. Most are fine. Some are frustrating. Like many women, I lost a lot of hair in my postpartum phase. Being anemic for more than a year after, it didn’t grow back in to its former glory. So I’ve tried any number of shampoos, pills and […]
I remember when Rochelle Behrens launched The Shirt — a button-down blouse with anti-gape technology (a patented internal button that keeps the look smooth). The idea seemed brilliant, but at the time, my bust didn’t require an extra button. One baby later, I understand the need for some extra security.
If you’re preparing your wardrobe for the warmer weather, don’t sleep on shirt dresses. Casual when worn with sandals or sneaker, dressy with flats or heels, they’re great for any work situation. They’re a great piece that you can throw on any time you need to look pulled together. Here are a few choices.

This weekend was a tricky one. The warm weather and bright sunshine of last weekend disappeared in a flurry of wet snow trapping our very active 18-month-old in the house with us. Plus, our babysitter cancelled, so neither of us feels ready for the week ahead. But in between making mac-and-cheese and watching Aristocats for […]
I got a great trench at the Banana Republic outlet right after Christmas for $70. 🙂 I had no idea what my wardrobe was missing! I wear it all the time now.
Thanks a lot Belle. I just impulse bought the Vince Camuto coat while at work facepalm. Ideally, I would love to own a Burberry, esp. the coat Kate Middleton wore on her tour of Ireland ( https://www.glamour.com/fashion/blogs/slaves-to-fashion/2011/03/08/0308kate-middleton-burberry-trench_fa.jpg ) but alas, it sold out within days (as everything worn by KM does).
I am constantly amazed by the fact that I almost always want the Elected Official and the Unpaid Intern options but the Hill Staffer option leaves me feeling “Meh.” *laughs at self. The trench is a great choice to post to celebrate almost-spring! What are your thoughts on the “short trench”? Too trendy? Can you wear one if you're over 40? Thanks 🙂
My comment didn't take. Oops. Thanks for this – I am in the hunt for a classic Burberry. What is the classic-classic Burberry, in your opinion? Must it be khaki?
