The Daily Eight: August 30, 2016

Content will be a little light this week.  I’m prepping some fall fashion posts for next week and the week after that need more time.  Because as unhappy as I am to see summer end, fall fashion is my favorite.

***

1) Why burning bridges at work isn’t always bad. (The Everygirl)

2) LOFT’s Willow Peplum Top has a sophisticated print for fall.  But I couldn’t resist buying this slightly summery Valley Floral Blouse to wear with the coordinating pleated skirt.

3) How to look professional when it is super humid outside. (Levo League)

4) These Madewell dotted calf-hair flats are on my must have list for fall.  Also, add these Vionic Sterling boots.

5) A while back, I posted a J.Crew dotted blouse that looked great.  Sadly, the quality was terrible.  Maybe poor quality is why sales are down at so many retailers. (The Washington Post)

6) This Laura Mercier ‘Iconics’ gift set is the most fun thing ever; it would make a great Xmas gift.

7) Frequent flier?  Your airline passenger rights decoded.  (The Bustle)

8) This Topshop origami dress looks high-fashion for $110.  I also love this $70 white, pointelle sweater for pre-fall.

    Wait- would you wear the matching blouse and skirt at the same time? I can’t decide whether that’s overkill, or if it’ll just look like a dress with a defined waistband…

    I just wanted to say thank you for recommending the clump crusher mascara! I’m a big fan, it adds plenty of color but isn’t heavy and lasts a long time.

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.
