A girlfriend texted me Saturday with a question that was uniquely D.C. Her office is no longer suits and sheath dresses, but it’s not jeans and athleisure either. “Can an office be ‘semi-formal’?,” she pondered. “What do I wear for that?!” Enter the shirtdress, the solution for summer.
Welcome to the warm weather months. Outside, you will roast. Inside, you will freeze. The air conditioning will be your constant nemesis, as it “conditions” the air to a temperature that is primarily suitable for men. Luckily, this cardigan can keep you warm even when your fiery resentment wanes.
Nora Ephron was right: I feel bad about my neck. As I move through my forties, the creases have turned into chasms. The skin sags like a pair of sweatpants with aging elastic. It’s not great. But it’s just a natural part of getting older. Over the past year, it feels like I’ve tried every […]

This week has been an absolute bear, so let’s reach into the reader mail bag and answer some questions. And let’s start with a post about affordable summer bags.
I have that Ann Taylor jacket in two other colors and it’s so versatile. The arms are 3/4 sleeve which is great for my warm climate and it’s very flattering.
I was at a company management meeting last week where the attendance was 95% men (sigh). The highest ranking woman at the meeting was wearing a super chic white tweed jacket and she looked *fantastic*. I came home from the meeting desperate to order one…and now the ‘corner office’ look is my ‘happy bonus day’ gift to myself 🙂
I don’t blame you, came here specifically to comment that that Rebecca Taylor jacket looks BEAUTIFUL; glad someone out there is enjoying it! 🙂
