1) Eleven resources to help you write your resume. (BossedUp)

2) This may be the perfect holiday sweater–feminine, chic, subtly festive.

3) Six women discuss debt and how they’re digging out from under they owe. (Elle)

4) Boden’s cashmere sweater with contrast cuffs is so cool.  I also love this simple knitted v-neck dress.

5) “Everything had sexual connotations.” The story of a young, female reporter in 1960s D.C.. (WaPost)

6) I am obsessed with this simple blouse from Rebecca Taylor.  I also love this sale-priced embroidered silk top.

7) He put a ring on it, and now your wedding is all anyone cares about. (Elle)

8) Need shelves? Target’s Windham bookcase comes a wide array of colors, and the cube bookcase is perfect for shoes.

    The Elle article about people asking wedding planning is spot on. I’m currently expecting and I feel the same way. It’s like I’ve become only an incubator, devoid of any thoughts/opinions outside of baby growing. I know people mean well when they ask how I’m feeling but when I say I’m great, let it go. I’m not going to commiserate with you every. single. time. we talk about what’s going on with my body.

    Ugh. Rant over.

    The Target Windham bookcases are surprisingly solid for the price point. I bought one several years ago to fill a space and it has lasted through two moves. If you do in-store pickup, consider enlisting the help of a friend. The tall bookcases are a bit heavy!

    As always, love the blog Belle!

This weekend, I got two hours to myself for the first time in months. Really to myself. My child was asleep. My dogs were asleep. Kyle was off playing cards with his friends. My house was clean, and there was nothing else to do but sit in my bed and scroll Instagram. It was glorious. […]

November AMA: You Asked, I Answered

Another month has come and gone, and between a busy work schedule, illness and the search for new childcare, I almost forgot to ask for questions for the AMA.  Luckily, I remembered late last night.  So here we go. I always think it’s funny when people send rude or overly personal questions when I put […]
