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.

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.

The Range: A Business Look from Boden

Every now and again, I spot a piece on sale and I have to have it. I need it. I cannot live without it. Recently, I spotted a jersey tee at Boden that takes a casual top to the next level, and I just needed to share.

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 […]
