The Bar Exam is next week. It’s been five years since the last time I passed it. Almost seven years since I took my last law school final. And I need to study.
Obviously, I’d rather be here, writing about shoes and lipsticks. But if I fail, I’ll never live down the embarrassment. See you soon.

Have a big day ahead? Major hearing? Big trial? The presentation of your life? Gonna be at a conference with that ex? Whatever it happens to be, these are the fashion weapons that get me to the confidence level that I need to be at.
Without question, the most worn item in my wardrobe is a black-and-white striped tee. I wear it in winter under sweaters, in spring with white jeans, in summer with black shorts. I’ve been wearing the same one for years (it’s the best). But they don’t make it anymore. So here are some options for replacement.
When I started this blog, influencers still re-wore clothes. There were no haul videos filled with the latest from Shein before it winds up in a beach in Ghana poisoning the planet. There were no sponsored campaigns delivering fresh wardrobes each month. The content machine doesn’t like reruns.

When I was young, my Mother used to bring me along when she would go shopping for fabric. As a result, I spent a lot of time, killing time, flipping through pattern books. So when I spotted this dress, I was instantly transported to the pattern table at a Jo-Ann Fabrics.
Sending great powers of concentration, memory and analysis, hope you sail through it!
Good luck! You’ve got this!
Wishing you the best of luck – we are all cheering for you from our many corners!
Studying for the bar is a full-time job with no energy left for a side hustle. Take care of yourself, and good luck!
Good luck! You’ve got this.
You’ve got this!!!
Supporting you no matter how it goes! Good luck!
I’m glad you’re taking time away from the blog. Good luck!
Best of luck – sending all the positive vibes!
You are so brave – just the idea of sitting for another bar exam (not to mention all the work while actually working!) is too much for me! Hope everything goes smoothly. You’ve got this!
Good luck! You got this, lady.
Best of luck to you! You are a rock star for taking another bar exam. I almost withdrew my application to waive in to the Washington bar when I found out I would have to take the Washington Law Component test, and that’s open book! Taking another bar exam is a whole other level of impressiveness. We’re rooting for you!
Wishing you the best of luck and sending all of the good vibes!!!
Good Luck!
Best of luck! Get some puppy cuddles in during your study breaks – that always helps me!
best of luck! You’ve got this and we are all rooting for you!
You got this! Rooting for you!
You’re going to pass the bar, I’m sure of it. 🙂
Good luck!
You’ll do great! Sending you our best!
Sending you all the good vibes!!
You will be fine. Memory from BAR-BRI: topic was mens rea – example: husband-wife are fighting, he grabs gun, shoots her, she dies.Class discussion ensues. “Yeah, but what if he only wanted to wing her?”
Sending love & encouragement.
