+ This career coach has advice for career growth post-pandemic.

+ This short pajama set is saving my life (and my sleep) this summer.

+ Why Can’t I Stop Thinking About Child-Free Women.

+ Ann Taylor has great jewelry for summer. I love these tortoise hoops, so modern.

+ Quitting has become the ultimate form of self-care.

+ This tie-front maxi from Eloquii is phenomenal.  This misses’ size J.Crew one is good too.

+ Affordable, ethical fashion brands.  So glad to see Boden on the list.

+This utility max-shirtdress is nice enough for dinner, but perfect for the pool.

+ Resist old routines when returning to the office.

+ That’s It Fruit Bars are my favorite, healthy snack when I need sweets.

Long Read. “Parasocial relationships” explain why we think influencers are our friends.

I came home from Montana in a real nesting mood.  I’m cleaning out closets, making Goodwill drop offs, fixing things that have been broken for too long, and planning to put art up on these sparse walls.  And my solution for the latter is Framebridge.

You upload family photos, digital downloads and more to the Framebridge website.  Then, they print, frame and ship anywhere.  I’ve used it for a lot of Nana gifts over the years.

You can use their design services to help you get the look you want, or you can build a gallery wall or art project yourself.  Items ship in as little as two days.  So you can be ready to hang them up this weekend.

    As someone who was fantasizing about quitting my job and finishing my garage walls this morning, the burn out article sounds very true. I need and can afford a long break but I keep going only because I’m too worried of the impact on my career and this self-inflicted feeling of failure.

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.
