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.

    Omg the widget opens to a new tab in Chrome without having to right-click! Yay! [I know that’s been a struggle on parts of the blog all year]

      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?

The Beauty Edit: An Under-Eye Concealer That Actually Works

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.

Every now and again, I spot a piece on sale and I have to have it. I need it. I cannot live without it. Recently, I spotted a jersey tee at Boden that takes a casual top to the next level, and I just needed to share.

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 […]
