There is nothing  permanent except change. — Heraclitus

Clean. Don’t ask me to do the office housework!

Warm. A dreamy, affordable sweater for weekend wear.

Climb. For women to succeed, we need to lift them into management.

Green. An olive raincoat and olive winter coat. Now I just need the martini.

Numbers. What is a size 8, anyway? Fixing the clothing size conundrum.

Rouge. This Donna Karan red dress is a stunner (and on sale for <$150).

Wealth. A 5-minute finance class with Ellevest’s Sallie Krawcheck.  And what to consider before you negotiate your salary.

Animal. I fell hard for these Superga leopard sneakers.

Unequal. The sexist myths that just won’t die.

Waterproof. Aquatalia sale at Rack. Who needs weatherproof commute boots?

Plan. How to structure your remote work habits to be more productive.

Dangle. These Gorjana hoops are the perfect Goldilocks size.

The title is self-explanatory.  The article is worth a read.

    I just ordered those Superga sneakers!! I’m completely in love with them.

    Thank you for sharing the article by the author of Speak (I’ve Talked with Teenage Boys about Sexual Assault for 20 Years). I loved that book when it came out (20 years ago!) and find those reflections interesting, if sad.
