***

1) Mid-week pick me up: Tina Fey and Amy Poehler shutting down sexism. (Buzzfeed)

2) Not sure I’m feeling this “cake mascara” from Besame.  My Armani Eyes to Kill still treats me right.

3) “What I learned reading 3,721 pages of Hillary Clinton’s schedule.” (CNBC)

4) Nordstrom Rack is having a sale on work dresses.  I like this Black Halo-lookalike sheath from Alexia Adamor, and this half-price Hugo Boss number.  Hurry, the best styles are selling out fast.

5) Instead of small talk, these hosts choose a directed topic for dinner conversation. (Crain’s)

6) This $99 Ralph Lauren dolman-sleeve sweater gives off all the good fall vibes.  Also in plus-size.

7) Diane von Furstenberg on “making it as a woman.” (Business of Fashion)

8) The Boden sale is killing it with basic pieces like this super soft swing top and these scallop ballet flats on deep discount.

    Hi Belle –
    Love the new blog format (and name!). One tiny request: consider changing the light gray text for links to a more high contrast color? It’s a bit invisible against the white background.

The Find: My Best Workout Shorts

For eight years, I have worn the same workout shorts. Every year, an influencer tries to sell me new shorts. I order them. I try them on. They pale in comparison to the shorts I already own. I return them.

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.
