10th Commandment: February 14

Feb 14, 2014

If you follow me on Twitter, you know that I have been locked in a multi-day travel meltdown.  As a result, I intended for yesterday to be the blog’s Friday so that I could catch up on other work.  But here I am, stuck in an airport with a lot of ticked off people who are yelling at gate agents, each other and anyone else within in earshot, and putting on my headphones and blogging sounds like a great idea.

Let’s just called today Friday, Part Deux.

MICHAEL Michael Kors Stripe Dress ($89.50)

Striped dresses are an all-season essential for me.  I wear them with tights in the winter and bare legs in the summer.  This Michael Kors dress is a well-made option in a versatile black and white palette.

Prefer navy?  I like this Mott Hvar stripe dress from Nordstrom and this Old Navy dress with a band of aqua around the bottom (in petite and tall).

Want a maxi dress?  I love this Michael Stars blouson-top maxi and this 3/4 sleeve Jessica Simpson ‘Reah’ dress.

Looking for a plus-size dress?  Try this short sleeve Ralph Lauren dress or this super cute Forever 21 dress with long sleeves.  Petite? I like this navy long-sleeved Ralph Lauren and this WHBM black and white striped shift (also in misses).  Tall?  Have a look at this variegated-stripe dress from LOFT.

Look for Less

Saw It On Social: Rooted

A few months ago, my husband killed two of my plants. I was out of town for several weeks, and while I was away, he apparently forgot that plants need water to live. So when I returned, my snake plant and my Calamondin tree were both dead, while his braided money tree continued to thrive. […]

The Find: A Versatile Sweater Jacket

It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.

Business Casual Outfit: Linen Closet

And just like that, it’s April. Summer is almost upon us, and the retailers are filled with linen wares. Now, you know that I am usually unwilling to wear linen to work due to the wrinkles. But in this post-pandemic world, perhaps my mind can change.
