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

Happy Hour: Atlantic Beach Pie

There are two kinds of people in this world: People who eat cake on their birthdays and people who don’t.  And some of the weirdos in the latter category (I said what I said) eat pie as an alternative.  So if you’re a “birthday pie” eater with a late summer celebration coming up, may I […]

The Find: The Only Wire-Free Bra That Didn’t Fail Me

After Sloane was born, I developed a seething hatred for underwire bras.  The trouble was that I had also developed a larger, slightly droopier bust.  It was a cruel irony.

The 2010s Trends I’m Loving and Leaving Behind

Our tween and teen nieces spent the first half of 2023 reviving our high school fashions.  From peasant tops to low rises, I felt like I was back bopping to N’SYNC in my mint-green sedan for a minute.  Now, our 20-something direct reports are bringing back the 2010s in a big way, and I am […]
