Want to add a little color to your interview suit? I find that jewel tones are always a good choice.

This week, I fell mindlessly into my phone more than I think I ever have. My screen time went from 3.5 hours per day to 5 hours per day. But the increased eye strain did lead to some good finds. Just going to leave this right here. (I really need to work on “Didn’t make […]
For eight years, I have worn the same workout shorts. Every year, an influencer tries to sell me new shorts. I order them. I try them on. They pale in comparison to the shorts I already own. I return them.
Have a big day ahead? Major hearing? Big trial? The presentation of your life? Gonna be at a conference with that ex? Whatever it happens to be, these are the fashion weapons that get me to the confidence level that I need to be at.

Without question, the most worn item in my wardrobe is a black-and-white striped tee. I wear it in winter under sweaters, in spring with white jeans, in summer with black shorts. I’ve been wearing the same one for years (it’s the best). But they don’t make it anymore. So here are some options for replacement.
Love the JCrew blouse – wish it weren’t out of my price range!
Belle, do you have any experience with Everlane blouses? They have some beautiful jewel tones.
I have two. Sometimes, I think the styles are too short. But I think the quality is good.
I’m terrible at layering, and have always wondered how you get loose sleeves like most of these blouses have to stay straight and ‘right’ under a jacket, or sweater or whatever. Whenever I layer I’m constantly tugging on this or that to get it to stay in the right place. Luckily I live in a warm climate where I don’t have to do often, but I love the look just not the experience.
I have a similar one in black, I´m in love with it hahaha

Ugh, love the look of that J Crew blouse. Wish it wasn’t so pricey.
The Loft has a similar option in pink: https://www.loft.com/bow-neck-blouse/364474?colorExplode=false&skuId=18024302&catid=catl000011&productPageType=fullPriceProducts&defaultColor=3197&CID=aff_7078679 and Ann Taylor in blue: https://www.anntaylor.com/crepe-tie-neck-blouse/360099?colorExplode=false&skuId=17921596&catid=cata00008&productPageType=fullPriceProducts&defaultColor=0851&CID=aff_7078679
(Don’t work for either company or own either top – so not much more insight. I’ve just been looking at tie-neck tops recently).
It’s J.Crew, they’ll be a sale. If Ben Franklin lived in 2015, he could count on death, taxes, and a J.Crew sale.
Belle, on the JCrew blouse I’m also curious about the sizing, if your wouldn’t mind sharing when you review. Good luck on your interview!
