The Edition: No. 93

Apr 18, 2019

The boisterous sea of liberty is never without a wave. — Thomas Jefferson

Glossed. The Lipstick I Wore to My Divorce. (Must read.)

Follow Up. This Sulwhasoo serum lipstick in deep berry or soft rose, both amazing shades.

Stereotyped. Women candidates are still seen as being too emotional.

Beached. Excited about my new pool hat and cover-up.

Appeared. Why influencers are going “authentic.”

Worked. Nordstrom Rack has new office-appropriate dresses.  This $35 ruffle-hem dress is a steal for spring.

Achieved. Why success doesn’t always feel successful.

Warmed. Faux-fur throws have become my go-to housewarming gift.

That is an Earl Grey iced tea with a sweet and salty cream froth.  If you come to my house this summer, that’s what we’ll be drinking.  But we’ll be drinking it out of these pretty, dotted glasses.

    Love this quote–it’s on the federal courthouse in Portland.

    I had no idea they carried Sulwhasoo now at Nordstrom. Their skincare is divine, though I can usually get better deals with direct-from-Korea suppliers. $38 for a lipstick is hard to stomach, but it’s definitely a luxury product…

    Thank you for linking the Office Appropriate Dresses section at Rack! I’m eyeing the shift version of that popular Lush tunic: https://www.nordstromrack.com/shop/product/2474379/lush-3-4-length-sleeve-novak-shift-dress?color=PEACOAT

The Beauty Edit: An Under-Eye Concealer That Actually Works

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.

The Range: A Business Look from Boden

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.

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 […]
