A red satchel is an all season staple for me, but in the spring/summer it pumps up all of my navy pieces with a pop of color.

    Saw this one at Nordstrom for full price this past weekend. It has compartments AND is on sale at Kate Spade online.

    I’ve never heard of Milly Blake before, but I do think that top bag is very cute!

  3. Has anyone had good luck with Nine West bags? I went through a phase during college where that was all I bought. Then I realized that they fell apart so often, I was spending several hundred a year. I haven’t bought one since, but I like that red one. I wonder if their quality has improved?

      I bought a fabric one about three years ago, and it’s held up just as well as my leather purses from other brands with about a year of continuous use when I bought it and sporadic use since. I can’t speak for their leather purses, but I’ve had good luck with my fabric one!

Beauty Review: Bondi Boost

As I age, I notice many changes in my body. Most are fine. Some are frustrating. Like many women, I lost a lot of hair in my postpartum phase. Being anemic for more than a year after, it didn’t grow back in to its former glory. So I’ve tried any number of shampoos, pills and […]

The Find: Shirts That Don’t Gape

I remember when Rochelle Behrens launched The Shirt — a button-down blouse with anti-gape technology (a patented internal button that keeps the look smooth). The idea seemed brilliant, but at the time, my bust didn’t require an extra button. One baby later, I understand the need for some extra security.

They’re a great piece that you can throw on any time you need to look pulled together. Here are a few choices.

The Mondays: March 18, 2024

This weekend was a tricky one. The warm weather and bright sunshine of last weekend disappeared in a flurry of wet snow trapping our very active 18-month-old in the house with us.
