Tahari Pleated Sheath (Nordstrom, $129)
This is a great dress to finish out the summer with and carry you into the fall. It could be worn to work, an after work event or a not-quite-cocktail wedding. Great neckline and lots of style for under-$150.

It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.
Inside the reader mail bag there are questions about summer beauty, hiring a personal shopper, navigating a sudden breakouts, and more. Let’s dig in!
And just like that, it’s April. Summer is almost upon us, and the retailers are filled with linen wares. Now, you know that I am usually unwilling to wear linen to work due to the wrinkles. But in this post-pandemic world, perhaps my mind can change.

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.
LOVE that these have sleeves! Am always on the hunt for work dresses that aren't sleeveless.
Can you please advise on this Asos dress or any of the Asos clothes you have featured on your site? I have heard conflicting reviews online but would like to get your opinion of Asos? Have you ever purchased from them and if so what do you think of them?
Thanks and love your site!
I've been eying a very similar red Calvin Klein sheath that's been popping up at Nordstrom Rack, etc, but I've been worried that it's too bold for my heavily-male defense-industry office. What are your thoughts Belle? If you're every looking for a topic, I'd love to hear your thoughts in general on color trends and varying workplaces.
