Embroidered Placket Blouse ($79 + 40%-off)

I love placket blouses for work.  They’re versatile enough to wear to the office or with weekend attire.  They mix the professionalism of a button-up with the femininity of a blouse.  And this one has a really unique detail on the placket to give it a little something extra.

These Everlane blouses are perfect for the office and come in lovely colors.  This Asos blouse has a pleated front that’s very interesting.  If you like prints, this animal print blouse from Billabong is chic and this Jones New York top has a very Tory Burch look to it.

Prefer something sleeveless or with short sleeves?  This Mossimo blouse has a stylish mix of neutral colors, and this French Connection blouse has a sheer yoke.

Plus-size?  This Anne Klein blouse has a great casual look to it, it would be nice with white denim.  Petite?  In addition to the Ann Taylor blouse above, this J.Crew popover would be nice for the weekends.

    I love silk/placket blouses and am wearing one today with jeans for casual Friday! This one may be arriving at my doorstep shortly–it’s a style I can’t get enough of right now because as you mentioned, they are SO versatile.

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 […]
