10th Commandment: January 17

Jan 17, 2014

As I mentioned earlier this week, a black and white handbag is a purse that you can carry from winter into spring and summer.  It lightens up all black attire and it pairs well with summer colors.  So if you’re looking for a new bag that needs to be carried in multiple seasons, consider a black and white satchel.

    Thanks for posting! I was just looking for the perfect black and white handbag last night (I even considered writing in to ask for some suggestions in the under $100 category).

    I can’t wait to receive the Aldo bag. It is EXACTLY what I was looking for.

    Hi Belle , the kings bury satchel is $448 on the Kate Spade website , not $169.

      I’m sorry about that, I think it was on a short sale when I found it. I guess the price went back up. Apologies.

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 […]
