1) The Financial Diet has 27 enlightening thoughts on why you’re not building wealth (video). (The Muse)

2) I own these Franco Sarto Dipali ankle boots: 4/5 for quality, 4/5 for comfort. I’m very happy with them.

3) How to quit your job and travel the world. (In case, you’re having a “day” at work.) (Elle)

4) Banana Republic is having a 40%-off Friends and Family Sale (BRFAMILY). It’s a great time to pick up this Melton winter coat or this bold red sheath dress.  It’s also a great time to buy holiday gifts like these cashmere gloves.

5) Meme Wafare: How mass replication has poisoned the U.S. election. (The Guardian)

6) This Bobbi Brown eye palette is everything. The smoky neutrals are perfect for day-to-night looks.

7) The Tricky Etiquette of Co-Working Spaces. (The New York Times)

8) As always, ASOS has the best scarves.  This Jack Wills tartan and this herringbone/pastel scarf are so cool.

9) Ivanka Trump reportedly worried that association with Trump campaign has hurt her brand. (The Cut)

10) I’ve never considered buying a jumpsuit, but this Rebecca Taylor number me rethinking that position.  I really love the lace back.

    My name is Dipali and now I have to have those ankle boots! Thanks for making my day 🙂

  2. Lauren says:

    #9 may indeed be true. I have seen plenty of her shoes that I love, but I will not purchase anything branded Trump.

  3. Mary says:

    Thanks for the Meme Wars article. Interesting and a little frightening. The inability and unwillingness to communicate in our country is troubling.

      I have a pair of her shoes that I bought before this whole thing started, and now I feel yucky when I wear them. But they were pricey and I do love them. But I won’t repurchase anything branded Trump again. If she hadn’t stood behind her father after all the dirty sexist and racist things he said I might have had a different position. And I’m Canadian- so I can just imagine how some Americans must feel.

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. I’ve been wearing the same one for years (it’s the best). But they don’t make it anymore. So here are some options for replacement.

Three Outfits I’ll Wear All Spring

When I started this blog, influencers still re-wore clothes. There were no haul videos filled with the latest from Shein before it winds up in a beach in Ghana poisoning the planet. There were no sponsored campaigns delivering fresh wardrobes each month. The content machine doesn’t like reruns.

The Find: Like a McCall’s Pattern

When I was young, my Mother used to bring me along when she would go shopping for fabric. As a result, I spent a lot of time, killing time, flipping through pattern books. So when I spotted this dress, I was instantly transported to the pattern table at a Jo-Ann Fabrics.
