    Hopefully this isn’t inappropriate, but I just wanted to say that I hope your pregnancy is going well! I’ve been following you since your DC days, so it feels a bit like an old friend is expecting ????

    Interesting to see peep toes again – I had pretty much the exact same Bandolino pumps about 10 years ago in black patent and nude patent that I wore almost every day! Brings back fond memories.

    Clamp iron – never knew of it! I wonder if my hair straightener can have a second life as a clothes iron now.

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.
