My apologies for being AWOL yesterday. I flew home from D.C. on Tuesday night, and halfway through my flight, I became suddenly, violently ill. Some sort of stomach flu. Not pleasant. Your brother insisting that you have Ebola, also not pleasant. But I’m on the mend now, so let’s get back to it.

Several of you have sent e-mails and DMs asking for more business casual and casual work attire for women in senior roles and management. Offices are leaving professional attire behind in favor of denim and what one reader described as “dressy workout clothes.” So how do you dress like the boss when you need to […]
Are you tired of Gift Guides, yet? Yesterday, I got one from my accountant. My accountant. And I like Rick, but I am not so hard up for suggestions that anyone will find a one-year subscription to Quicken under the tree. But because how much we love and like people is not determined by how […]
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. […]

When I was in my 20s, I bought every trendy nail polish, eye color, and lip gloss. Sure, I could only wear them on the weekends, but why not wear emerald green liner? In my 30s, I became enamored with skincare and took every “must-have” product for a spin. But in my 40s, my skin […]
Best wishes for your speedy recovery! I lol’d at your brother’s comment. Great dresses – as always, thank you for the work you do on this blog.
Glad you’re feeling better! It might’ve been a Norovirus; I had the same thing happen a wek and a half ago but since I was on an international (blessedly fairly short) flight, the CDC and paramedics carted me off to the ER to diagnose me. It sucks but is fairly fast at least. I, too, got plenty of Ebola jokes from my brother.
