Several of you have sent e-mails and DMs asking for more business casual and casual work attire for women in senior roles and management. Offices are leaving professional attire behind in favor of denim and what one reader described as “dressy workout clothes.” So how do you dress like the boss when you need to […]
Are you tired of Gift Guides, yet? Yesterday, I got one from my accountant. My accountant. And I like Rick, but I am not so hard up for suggestions that anyone will find a one-year subscription to Quicken under the tree. But because how much we love and like people is not determined by how […]
This weekend, I got two hours to myself for the first time in months. Really to myself. My child was asleep. My dogs were asleep. Kyle was off playing cards with his friends. My house was clean, and there was nothing else to do but sit in my bed and scroll Instagram. It was glorious. […]

When I was in my 20s, I bought every trendy nail polish, eye color, and lip gloss. Sure, I could only wear them on the weekends, but why not wear emerald green liner? In my 30s, I became enamored with skincare and took every “must-have” product for a spin. But in my 40s, my skin […]
Love that leopard print sweater! It’s too hot most of the year here for real sweaters, and I love a neutral animal print. Totally swooping that one up, thanks for the great list!
I love AT, but my problem is with all the polyester tops (not a problem specific to AT, but mostly they are polyester)
I don’t know why but BOY do they hold onto stink! I don’t know how to get rid of it. Even my sleeveless tops hold onto odor, I don’t wanna know how bad a long sleeve shirt would get.
How do you deal with this?
I add a small amount of vinegar to my wash cycle.
For most things vinegar will do the trick. Sport specific detergent (WIN and Penguin are two brands I’ve used) can help get residual smells out. They are designed to get stink out of technical fabrics which are frankly just fancy polyester. 🙂
I’ve heard about sport detergent. Haven’t tried it yet, but Kyle’s hockey gear needs professional intervention.
This bothers me, too! I use a spritz of Nature’s Miracle, the carpet cleaner for pet stains.
Yes! So glad to know I’m not the only one who has this problem!
