The Edition: No. 63

Jan 7, 2019

“Men don’t age better than women. They’re just allowed to age.” — Carrie Fisher

Designed. What would it look like if women built the world?

Frocked. Boden’s Josephine balloon sleeve dress and Emma scalloped trim dress bring pretty, feminine dresses to work.

Fringed. Should you get bangs? Pro: No Botox Needed. Con: Maintenance.

Chapped. Dry hands and feet?  Add these gloves and socks to your routine.  Or try one of these 11 soothing hand creams.

Cleansed. How women can say no to ‘office housework.’ 

Laced Up. This Cosabella lingerie set is beautiful but unfussy.  This more-supportive Wacoal bra is lovely too.

Lifted. Try these compound exercises for a full-body workout.

Packed. Traveling for work?  Try Talbot’s washable faux wrap dress and blazer.

Renewed. Career Contessa’s best career advice for 2019.

Adorned. This Molten Droplets Necklace and long Y-Chain Necklace are both awesome.

Pushed. Elevators, crosswalks — the world is full of buttons that don’t work. Why?

Polished. New favorite winter hue: Smith & Cult Lovers Creep.

Unprepared. ‘I craved being a Mom; I wasn’t prepared to hate parenting.’

The new Congress is sworn in, and in many was, this class is historic.  Representative Elise Stefanik penned an article discussing what it’s like to be young, female and in Congress.  It’s a good read.

If you or a woman you know is interested in running for office, check out She Should Run.  Their Incubator has helped women all over the country run for office.

    That button article is fascinating and, frankly, makes me think of comments on the internet. Sometimes they make a difference, sometimes not, but the Illusion of Getting Your Voice Out There can be reassuring.
    Thanks for sharing!

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.

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 […]
