Morning Line: January 12, 2017

The epaulets are a bit much, but this Contrast Trim Jacket ($79) is a nice combination of rocker chic and staid conservative.  If you’re looking to add a few new jackets to your wardrobe, Mango is the place to go.  If you’re buying your blazers at Forever21 or H&M, it might be time to make the switch.  Most blazers are under $125, and when there’s a sale (which are frequent), they’re much cheaper.  Mango also offers a Violeta line for sizes up to 22 (though many styles are only available up to 18).  See more of my Mango picks in the widget below.

      It worked for like seven days after the new design was launched. I just don’t get it. It still works in Safari, but apparently not in some other browsers.

    I love this jacket. The combination is exactly what I’m looking for in a jacket/blazer. Any ideas where to find a similar one for tall ladies?

    What do you wear under a jacket like this?

Happy Hour: Atlantic Beach Pie

There are two kinds of people in this world: People who eat cake on their birthdays and people who don’t.  And some of the weirdos in the latter category (I said what I said) eat pie as an alternative.  So if you’re a “birthday pie” eater with a late summer celebration coming up, may I […]

The 2010s Trends I’m Loving and Leaving Behind

Our tween and teen nieces spent the first half of 2023 reviving our high school fashions.  From peasant tops to low rises, I felt like I was back bopping to N’SYNC in my mint-green sedan for a minute.  Now, our 20-something direct reports are bringing back the 2010s in a big way, and I am […]

The Find: Bright and Striped

For the past few years, the wardrobes of many influencers have tilted toward the beige and boring.  I’m all for a good basic, but staple pieces can only take you so far.  Sometimes, you need to wear something that has a little something extra, and this sale-priced tee certainly does.
