1) Whose side are you on? Meet the women who hate feminism. (The Walrus)

2) New in the under-$125 work-bag game: this gorgeous Calvin Klein tote, and this Kate Landry satchel.

3) Self-promoters go a long way in life; and how to know when you should brag, and when you should keep quiet. (The Herald Sun; Quartz)

4) Finally cracked and bought the Nike blush sneakers. Sometimes, I’m so basic it hurts.

5) Listen to the complete guide to the Electoral College.  (The Takeaway Podcast)

6) This Reiss dress with velvet panels and statement sleeves goes beyond the LBD.  And this green, one shoulder dress from Whistles is perfect for a holiday party or a summer wedding.

7) Why don’t more powerful women paint their nails like UK PM Theresa May does? (Financial Times)

8) Love red lips?  Then, you need to try this Kevyn Aucoin Femme Fatale Lip Kit.

9) What to do when pregnancy makes you question your career decisions. (Forbes)

10) I used to think it was kitschy, but the Comme des Garcons heart logo has grown on me.  I’m thinking about buying one of their shirts, maybe this striped tee or this simple button-up.

    I really worry about the internalized misogyny in this country.

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.
