    I struggle with how to wear these jackets. I feel too space-uniform-y with them all zipped up and with no necklace or other embellishment, but I feel like they lose some of the professional look if left unzipped. Thoughts?

      I am wearing a similar style jacket right now, but in a different material. I wear it unzipped and it is generally fine, but we have a very casual office.

      To avoid the “space uniform” look, do a 3/4 zip up. The top of my jacket folds over a bit, and gives it an interesting look.

    As always, one of the less expensive is the most appealing to me. Ann Taylor. Waiting and watching for that sale.

This weekend, I got two hours to myself for the first time in months. Really to myself. My child was asleep. My dogs were asleep. Kyle was off playing cards with his friends. My house was clean, and there was nothing else to do but sit in my bed and scroll Instagram. It was glorious. […]

November AMA: You Asked, I Answered

Another month has come and gone, and between a busy work schedule, illness and the search for new childcare, I almost forgot to ask for questions for the AMA.  Luckily, I remembered late last night.  So here we go.
