10th Commandment: August 23

Mango Fitted Drape Dress ($60)

With its exaggerated neckline and ruched styling, this dress is a fairly spectacular copy of DVF’s Bentley dress (summer colors on sale, here).  It also comes in navy if lipstick red isn’t your forte.

If you like the ruching, but you aren’t crazy about the neckline, try this berry-colored Evan Piccone dress with waist detail.  I also liked this circle-printed KamaliKulture dress, which is odd, because I usually don’t like that line.

Plus-size: This wine-colored Melissa Massey is a bit pricey, but it’s so worth it.  Fall wedding?  Look no further.  Petite: Try this purple Ralph Lauren with a cowl neck.

    Has anyone seen the Mango dress in red in person? As a blonde, I can’t do the orange-reds well, but I love the dress!

      I just purchased it in navy today. I wasn’t really paying attention but I believe I it erred on the orange-ish end if not a fairly true red.

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 […]
