The Workday Reading: December 28, 2015

***

1) The Top-6 ‘Good News’ Stories of 2015. (Gates Notes)

2) Looking inexpensive work bags?  Last Call has a lovely selection.  I like this Neiman Marcus Perri satchel.  This discounted Furla zip-around wallet is a great wallet at a good price.

3) “I’m Having a Friendship Affair.” (The Cut)

4) The Kate Spade sale is on point.  This Cedar Street makeup bag is really clever for storing your cosmetics.  I also love the racing stripe on this pebble and black Margot bag.

5) This video will show you how to open a champagne bottle with a spoon. (Digg)

6) For an under-$100 cocktail dress, this green lace dress from The Limited is pretty.  If you need a day-to-night option, their hot pink sheath dress is a good option.

7) How to prevent your next fight from spiraling out of control. (New York Magazine)

8) Nordstrom Half-Yearly Sale is on.  If you use Lancome products, they’re offering a few dollars off the most popular ones.

9) Why your New Year’s resolution might do more harm than good. (Business Insider)

10) Affordable belts can bring new life to an old outfit.  This Gap calf-hair belt is a steal.  This wide, H&M suede belt in dark tan can do double-duty for work or weekend.

11) J.Crew thinks they can convince customers to look past the declining quality of their garments by sending “reassuring” e-mails. (J.Crew.com)

12) Net-a-Porter has extended their end-of-year sale.  I love this Monica Vinader rose gold bracelet and it’s linear onyx companion.  I also like this Eddie Borgo rose gold bracelet with smooth-rock crystals.

13) Dave Barry’s “Year in Review” is as funny as it is tragic. (The Washington Post)

Eye Candy. Oh, Oscar de la Renta, this red evening gown with floral accents is just gorgeous.

Happy Hour: Atlantic Beach Pie

There are two kinds of people in this world: People who eat cake on their birthdays and people who don’t.  And some of the weirdos in the latter category (I said what I said) eat pie as an alternative.  So if you’re a “birthday pie” eater with a late summer celebration coming up, may I […]

The Find: The Only Wire-Free Bra That Didn’t Fail Me

After Sloane was born, I developed a seething hatred for underwire bras.  The trouble was that I had also developed a larger, slightly droopier bust.  It was a cruel irony.

The 2010s Trends I’m Loving and Leaving Behind

Our tween and teen nieces spent the first half of 2023 reviving our high school fashions.  From peasant tops to low rises, I felt like I was back bopping to N’SYNC in my mint-green sedan for a minute.  Now, our 20-something direct reports are bringing back the 2010s in a big way, and I am […]
