Aldo Halifax Satchel ($55, also in black)

When choosing a brown satchel, I tend to look for a darker color: camel, cognac, chocolate, etc.  Lighter hues tend to get dirty or scuffed to easily.  A color like this pairs well with many spring and summer colors (pastels, navy, white, brights, etc.), and offers some cover from general wear and tear.

I also found this Neiman Marcus satchel with a really unique shape for under-$50.  I also like this sleek Liz Claiborne satchel that looks like a more expensive Michael Kors bag.  This inexpensive Merona satchel is also one of the best looking bags I’ve seen for sale in its price point.

Looking for a more relaxed style?  This slouchy bag from Sole Society is a tote/satchel hybrid that bridges the gap between work and casual.

If you’d like a lighter bag, this Sole Society satchel is a good choice.  It has some fun details and a good price.

    I purchased the Neiman Marcus satchel and loved it so much I bought another as a backup. It’s the perfect size and goes with everything. My only complaint is that the handles could be a little longer for wearing over your shoulder but it comes with a longer strap as well.

The Beauty Edit: An Under-Eye Concealer That Actually Works

My dark under eye circles have been the bane of my existence since I was 12. Is the cause lack of sleep? Dehydration? Sinus issues? Stress? Who the hell knows. But there they are, every day, telling the world that I am an exhausted working Mom.

Saw It On Social: The Battle of the Spendy Swimsuits

Sloane loves the pool. She jumps from the deck into the water with a crash, never considering her own safety, only to emerge on the surface, shouting “Again!” The pool is my daughter’s happy place. But no place where I need to wear a swimsuit in public is a happy one for me.

The Mondays: July 22, 2024

The Crowdstrike/Microsoft Meltdown forced me to take a few days off this weekend. No laptop. No billable hours. So we packed Sloane up for a visit to a local llama farm, stopped by the pool, went for coffee, etc. Few things are as funny as watching a 23-month old feed carrots to a ravenous rescue […]
