10th Commandment: December 4

Juicy Couture Ponte Minidress with Lace Back ($115)

This week, I’m going to focus on party attire for all of those holiday get togethers.  From family time to festive nights on the town, the Two Ways posts will feature how to dress for yuletide events.

This black minidress is business in the front–with long sleeves and a demure neckline–and a party in the back–with a lace inset.  If you like the lace back but would prefer something other than black, try this raspberry dress or this flirty white dress.  Or if you prefer the reverse, a lace dress that’s backless, try this rockin’ frock from Alice + Olivia.

Check back at 1:00PM for Two Ways to wear this dress.

    Did they style this lovely dress with PENNY LOAFERS?!? I am sure your two ways will be much, much classier.

    Oh, I'm excited for the holiday party attire posts. Thanks, Belle, for doing this. I am wondering if anyone has ever tried Wolford tights? They are really pricey (for tights, especially) but they are supposed to be amazing and not snag, etc. Was wondering if anyone has any IRL experience with them? Thanks

    I love love wolford tights. I have two pair, and they are very comfortable and hold up well. that being said, my favourite pair DID snag last year (after about four months of once a week use) when I caught them on a nail hanging out of a desk. even then, there is a hole, but no run. So I turned them around and wear them backward! 🙂 And really, who can fault a pair of tights for succumbing to a nail?!
    also, I throw mine in a lingerie bag and wash them once every 2-3 wears. they have held up beautifully with no pilling.

The Beauty Edit: An Under-Eye Concealer That Actually Works

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.

Saw It On Social: The Battle of the Spendy Swimsuits

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 Mondays: July 22, 2024

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 […]
