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 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.
