Refresh Week: A Skirt for Work

Apr 16, 2021

To be a female professional is to own a half-dozen pencil skirts.  It is your lot in life.  But while a basic black pencil is a staple, it might be time for a new style.  Enter the wrap front skirt.

I am showing this Express wrap-front skirt in burnt sienna because I love it, but it also comes in two neutral colors.  For a <$50 skirt, its a great piece that is a little different from the standard pencil.

I like the simplicity of the Express skirt, but this fold-front, tuck-wrap skirt is nice.  This crocheted skirt is from Ba&sh is also a fun summer option for cocktail or casual wear.  This faux wrap leather skirt from Amazon would be fun for fall.

Plus-size? MM LaFleur has this <$100 Logan skirt for work.  And this ruffle-front Madewell skirt is good for casual wear.

    Oooooo, I like the faux leather one. A leather skirt is on my fall wishlist assuming I’ll be back in the office.

    Great color! I know you love wrap skirts/dresses, but I find that they don’t work in San Francisco. Too gusty! I don’t always have a hand free to keep them closed while schlepping from the train to the office — back when that was still a thing, that is!

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.

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 […]
