I’m off to sunny Florida for my first ever beach trip. And before departing, I tried on last year’s white jeans. Talk about a demoralizing experience. I had fewer body image issues when I was 14-years-old than I did in that moment. Time for a new pair.

The holidays are upon us and the parties have begun. For many of us, this may be our first time at an office Christmas party or a sizable New Year’s Eve gathering since the pandemic. So here are three outfits that utilize pieces you may already own to create easy, festive holiday looks.
Several of you have sent e-mails and DMs asking for more business casual and casual work attire for women in senior roles and management. Offices are leaving professional attire behind in favor of denim and what one reader described as “dressy workout clothes.” So how do you dress like the boss when you need to […]
Are you tired of Gift Guides, yet? Yesterday, I got one from my accountant. My accountant. And I like Rick, but I am not so hard up for suggestions that anyone will find a one-year subscription to Quicken under the tree. But because how much we love and like people is not determined by how […]

This weekend, I got two hours to myself for the first time in months. Really to myself. My child was asleep. My dogs were asleep. Kyle was off playing cards with his friends. My house was clean, and there was nothing else to do but sit in my bed and scroll Instagram. It was glorious. […]
Belle, where are you headed to in Florida
Belle, thanks for posting universally flattering flared jeans. I’m anxiously waiting for the skinny jean trend to go away. Have a wonderful beach trip!
I’m just pretending that skinny jeans have already gone away. I’ve been quite successful at ignoring them thus far and see no reason to stop now.
We’ve all invested too much in boots for skinny jeans to go away anytime soon.
Ha – if I want to shoe off the shaft of my boots, I can wear them with dresses and skirts.
But, I was thinking about getting a pair of slim cut jeans, just for my cowboy boots. Sigh.
Skinny jeans!!!!! The mainstain of europe for both guys and gals…YUCK! Only ten percent of the population over the age of 14 looks good in them. Yet we all own a pair and keep trying! Cannot wait for this trend to be put to bed.
