Crepe shift dresses are perfect for mornings when you don’t feel your best.  They conceal flaws and don’t restrict movement.  Add a little tailoring at the waist and bust to give it an even more flattering fit, and you won’t be able to stop wearing it to dinner, drinks and work.

    THANK YOU!! I have been on the hunt for cute shift dresses for a while now; I'm so thrilled you featured this on 10th Commandment.

    Love the tip about a little tailoring to make it even more flattering. I would even suggest just keeping a few good quality, not too wide belts to do the tailoring and leave your dress flexible for more than a few pounds of weight fluctuation.

Too Many Tabs: April 19, 2024

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 […]

The Find: My Best Workout Shorts

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.
