The Find: The Blue Suit

Mar 21, 2024

For three weeks, this spectacular business suit has been living rent-free in my brain. The slate blue color is perfect for spring, but ready for any season. I loved it so much, I decided that it never hurts to have a great business suit around, even if my current work attire is a bit more casual.

Ann Taylor hit all the right notes with this suit. I love the freshness of the color. The skirt and collared blazer combo is a classic. The wide leg pants and sleek blazer is a more modern look. Every option is perfect for court, a big meeting, or any day when you need to feel your best.

For a shirt to wear with it, I like a monochromatic look with this pleat-front top. For something a bit more modern, but still monochrome, try this seamless top.

If you’re in the market for a new suit, this is the one.

    That does look good
    When you said the seamless looks “modern” I think that changes my outlook on those. I’ve admired that “quiet luxury” look on others who have the tall thin model build. On me and at my price point I often felt like a Star Trek extra. But thinking about it as “modern” changes my mindset and makes me want to give them more of a chance or maybe spend more for a more flattering look.

    Love the color. I bought a dress with a front slit just like that from Ann Taylor. When I sat down in court I flashed thigh and couldn’t figure out how to navigate the dress the entire hearing. Just do a sit test before you wear it to work lol.

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 […]
