1) They say absence makes the heart grow fonder.  Harvard Business Review asks whether employees who go on vacation are the ones who get promoted?

2) In the market for a new summer business suit?  This stone-colored Alex Marie suit with a nipped-in waist is fantastic.

3) Who hates their jobs more, East Coasters or West Coasters?

4) Does your sunscreen make you breakout?  Cosmo suggests 10 sunscreens for sensitive and acne-prone skin.  Personally, I like La Roche Posay Anthelios.

5) Read this article from Thought Catalog if you’re afraid you’ll never find ‘the one.’

6) Have you heard of Howlite?  It’s a stone with the veiny texture of Carrara marble.  This Ann Taylor Howlite cuff makes a real statement.  I also like this multi-strand necklace that mixes white and turquoise Howlite for a summery, boho-chic look.

7) After comments about crying in the lab and falling in love with their male counterparts, female scientists take on sexism. #DistractinglySexy

8) I am an iced tea addict.  This Takeya infusing pitcher lets me turn out 2-quarts in no time.  It’s also good for making spa water.

9) California Sunday Magazine takes on Australia’s infamous murder mystery, The Lost Man.

    Ha, when I got back from my last vacation, my boss told me I wasn’t allowed to leave ever again. So proud.

  2. Jenn S. says:

    The Takeya pitchers are great! Primula makes some nice infuser pitchers, too – I have one that is rather utilitarian in style that I got from Amazon for like $13, but just got my girlfriend a more aesthetically pleasing one as part of her wedding gift.

Beauty Review: Bondi Boost

As I age, I notice many changes in my body. Most are fine. Some are frustrating. Like many women, I lost a lot of hair in my postpartum phase. Being anemic for more than a year after, it didn’t grow back in to its former glory. So I’ve tried any number of shampoos, pills and […]

The Find: Shirts That Don’t Gape

I remember when Rochelle Behrens launched The Shirt — a button-down blouse with anti-gape technology (a patented internal button that keeps the look smooth). The idea seemed brilliant, but at the time, my bust didn’t require an extra button. One baby later, I understand the need for some extra security.

The Mondays: March 18, 2024

This weekend was a tricky one. The warm weather and bright sunshine of last weekend disappeared in a flurry of wet snow trapping our very active 18-month-old in the house with us. Plus, our babysitter cancelled, so neither of us feels ready for the week ahead. But in between making mac-and-cheese and watching Aristocats for […]
