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.
Inside the reader mail bag there are questions about summer beauty, hiring a personal shopper, navigating a sudden breakouts, and more. Let’s dig in!
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.

Since Sloane was born, I’ve fallen hard into a black, white, and blue wardrobe. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but as spring blooms, I need a little color in my wardrobe (and probably a little print too). Here are a few tops that caught my eye for work.
Love the Old Navy version!!!

No Barbour?
i have the old navy one and i LOVE it!
Dissenting opinion, but I went to Old Navy the other day after seeing you post the jacket here, and I was not impressed. It looks awesome on the hanger! However, the material feels like paper, there’s no lining, and when it was zipped, I looked like I was wearing a potato sack. GAP has a similar jacket and it is much higher quality! To each his own, but the ON version would be a one-season buy, especially if it hit inclement weather.
Belle, would love to see what kind of outfits you would put together with a utility jacket!
To JMW’s comment… yes, me too! Especially with Fall right around the corner… would love a post about styling this jacket.
