The Edition: No. 79

Mar 1, 2019

In the depth of winter, I finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer.  —  Albert Camus

Skilled. Non-Threatening Leadership Skills for Women.

Frocked. The stylish $128 dress you can wear to every summer wedding.

Safety. How a world quite literally built for men is dangerous to women.

Discounted. 50% off sale, 30% off everything else at J.Crew.  I grabbed these cute sneakers and pretty wrap blouse.

Strengthened. The importance of working for a boss who supports you.

Brightened. The fun spring colors make this Halogen sweater a must-own.

Stashed. How I Learned to Save Money.

Carried. Banana Republic’s collection for Int’l Women’s Day features this cute tote.

Sameness. Why anti-conformists always end up dressing the same way.

Curled. An incredible discount on Drybar’s 3-Day Bender Iron and Detox dry shampoo set ($10!).

Scathed. Do Klobuchar’s supporters mistake the promise of feminism?

Folded. These No. 21 Bow Pumps are everything.  So dramatic.

I’m sick, and somehow, getting sicker.  I may summon some energy to make my favorite soup this afternoon, Avgolomeno.  It’s the Greek equivalent of chicken noodle, and it is so delicious.  This is my favorite recipe, mostly because it’s simple and easy.  Now, if only there was someone here to cook it for me…

    Ten billion thanks for that lead on the JCrew sale. I not only nabbed the white bodysuit you showcased a couple of weeks ago, but also a gold velvet version of the faux wrap top, which I’d left on the rack in December for being too expensive. Got it for less than fifteen bucks! Thank you!

    Hope you feel better. The avgolemono o should help.

    Bell, my sympathies on being sick, it sucks.Being sick ALONE sucks a lot!

    Also, If you like Avgolemono, try Chikhirtma (Georgian Chicken Soup, also with egg & lemon, plus dill & cilantro). I use a recipe from 177MilkStreet.com… Delicious!

You Have, You Need: Camel Sweater Edition

In the name of fiscal responsibility, I’m taking a shopping respite through the end of the year.  When you write a fashion blog, not shopping is like being a person on a diet who moves into a McDonald’s.  But I’m determined to flex some self-discipline now that my holiday shopping is done.

Add to Cart: Five Recent Amazon Purchases

Since my daughter was born, Amazon has claimed so much of my money that I had to buy stock just to get some of it back.  Between the formula, onesies, fruit pouches, diapers, wipes, and ever evolving list of baby development gear, I could not survive without Prime.   My husband no longer notices the […]
