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!

Beauty Review: Bondi Boost

As I age, I notice many changes in my body. Most are fine. Some are frustrating. Like many women, I lost a lot of hair in my postpartum phase. Being anemic for more than a year after, it didn’t grow back in to its former glory. So I’ve tried any number of shampoos, pills and […]

The Find: Shirts That Don’t Gape

I remember when Rochelle Behrens launched The Shirt — a button-down blouse with anti-gape technology (a patented internal button that keeps the look smooth). The idea seemed brilliant, but at the time, my bust didn’t require an extra button. One baby later, I understand the need for some extra security.

The Mondays: March 18, 2024

This weekend was a tricky one. The warm weather and bright sunshine of last weekend disappeared in a flurry of wet snow trapping our very active 18-month-old in the house with us. Plus, our babysitter cancelled, so neither of us feels ready for the week ahead. But in between making mac-and-cheese and watching Aristocats for […]
