It snowed Friday. It didn’t stick, thank heaven. But the winter has been endless. So I need to think spring-summer thoughts with some poplin shirt dresses.

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.
Every now and again, I spot a piece on sale and I have to have it. I need it. I cannot live without it. Recently, I spotted a jersey tee at Boden that takes a casual top to the next level, and I just needed to share.
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 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 […]
I just ordered this shirtdress from J.Crew during their most recent sale: https://www.jcrew.com/p/shops/40offselectstyles/dresses/tiewaist-shirtdress-in-endonend-cotton/J5419?color_name=peri
I’m wondering, with shirtdresses like this, would you use the belt it comes with or swap it out for a different belt?
I always struggle with wrap or other dresses that come with a matching belt whether its better to use that one or change it up.
I typically swap it out for a wider belt with more structure. It cleans up the look.
There’s still snow on the ground here in Chicago- I busted (back) out my real boots and gloves again yesterday. It seems like it’ll be ages til we get to wear any of these gorgeous dresses!
I got caught without boots in Milwaukee this weekend as several inches of snow slush accumulated. I know spring is coming, but I can’t quite believe it yet.
Looks like the NA-KD is sold out in every size. 🙁
the eloquii dress is see-through. gorgeous, but clear as a windowpane. just a heads up for those wanting to give it a shot.
That’s sad to hear.
