1. Advice to the new White House staffers from the former staff.  Some real gems in here. (Time)

2. I may not be ready for spring, but I am ready for this cute BR skirt with pink trim.

3. What breast cancer can look and feel like. (Popsugar)

4. Can’t get enough of this lavender v-back pencil dress.  Also loving this double layer wiggle dress.  Both $68.

5. I’m the only single person in my friend group — here’s why. (Refinery29)

6. These Bronzallure rose gold and black hoops are fabulous.  The coordinating ring just moved to the top of my list.

8. I kind of love the medal print on this Boden shirtdress.  Their Posy shirtdress also comes in great, bold prints.

9. A high school assigned girls in AP English to go on a date as homework.  My AP homework was to read ‘Portrait of the Artist’. One of us got cheated, not sure which. (The Cut)

11. New breeding program designed to keep moderate Republicans from going extinct. (The Onion)

    Haha- I used to be a moderate Republican until I realized what a farce that was (mostly after being ostracized by the other Republicans). Now I am a happy Democrat.

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.
