1) The art of making and not making plans. (The New York Times)

2) Test drive a fall trend with these $27 pointy-toe smoking flats before committing to a pricier pair.

3) Should you break your day up into 100 10 minute blocks? (Wait But Why)

4) Add a festive brooch to this sapphire velvet dress from Felicity & Coco for a chic holiday look.

5) How to bounce back from a job rejection. (The Everygirl)

6) I spotted this side-split tweed skirt from Halogen at the store. Much prettier in person.

7) Good Girls Revolt: The legacy of the Newsweek lawsuit. (Newsweek)

8) Lace-up henleys are big right now.  I love this H&M top, and this animal print lace up blouse.

    I have the side-split tweed skirt from Nordstrom. Confirmed that it is much cuter in person than online. I prefer wearing it with black tights because I found my (glaringly) pale legs to be too much of a contrast. Note that it runs very true to size / a bit on the snug side – there is absolutely no stretch in the tweed. Worth it, though.

My dark under eye circles have been the bane of my existence since I was 12. Is the cause lack of sleep? Dehydration? Sinus issues? Stress? Who the hell knows. But there they are, every day, telling the world that I am an exhausted working Mom.

Saw It On Social: The Battle of the Spendy Swimsuits

Sloane loves the pool. She jumps from the deck into the water with a crash, never considering her own safety, only to emerge on the surface, shouting “Again!” The pool is my daughter’s happy place. But no place where I need to wear a swimsuit in public is a happy one for me.

The Mondays: July 22, 2024

The Crowdstrike/Microsoft Meltdown forced me to take a few days off this weekend. No laptop. No billable hours. So we packed Sloane up for a visit to a local llama farm, stopped by the pool, went for coffee, etc. Few things are as funny as watching a 23-month old feed carrots to a ravenous rescue […]
