1) Are women more likely than men to use just their first names when they introduce themselves?

2) Love sleek totes?  You need to see this grey Mango satchel and this super chic black tote.

3) Why Men Think Women Are Flirting with Them When They’re Not. (video)

4) This $70 Luxe sweater from Everlane might be the perfect fall sweater at the perfect fall price.

5) The story behind the one pot pasta recipe that conquered the Internet.

6) Meghan at Wit & Whimsy has her pics for fall handbags.  All I can think about is this burgundy satchel.

7) Mother Jones discusses why salad isn’t as virtuous as it seems.  The WaPost covers why salad is totally overrated. #longlivecheeseburgers

8) Urban Decay Ozone Pencil is the perfect primer for lipstick or eye makeup.  For something in a drugstore price range, try this NYX primer pencil.

9) In-flight Wi-fi prices go up as demand surges.  Or why I no longer bother with Gogo’s slow connection.

10) Boden has some phenomenal shoes right now.  I love these Court Heels in six colors and these Audrey Bow Flats in three.

11) Banning child labor imposes naive Western ideals on complex problems.  So what should we do instead?

Eye Candy.  These Fred Leighton earrings are magical.  They’re so pretty and yet, still modern.

The Find: A Striped Tee

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.

Three Outfits I’ll Wear All Spring

When I started this blog, influencers still re-wore clothes. There were no haul videos filled with the latest from Shein before it winds up in a beach in Ghana poisoning the planet. There were no sponsored campaigns delivering fresh wardrobes each month. The content machine doesn’t like reruns.
