***

1) Six reasons to set New Year’s goals in September.

2) This top handle satchel is lipstick red with multiple compartments and a good size for work.  Plus, it’s under-$50.  What more could you want?

3) Deadspin has some very helpful tips on how to write a note for any occasion.

4) Need work dresses? The Tahari Avant sheath and Contrast Sleeve dress are perfect for early fall.  And this Nicole Miller dress is a winter time staple.

5) Gizmodo discusses the rise of “fake holidays” like National Tequila Day.

6) Belif is my new-favorite skincare line.  Their soothing mask is incredible for tired skin.  I’m also loving their mild facial scrub.

7) Is it time to tax the Ivy League’s multi-billion-dollar endowments?  And is college tuition really too high?

8) Hello, perfect v-neck sweater.  Casual enough for day, dressy enough for the office.

9) Looking to boost your understanding of economics?  Business Insider has some tips on how to learn the basics without going back to school.

10) If you’re into little rings, this black enamel accented Kendra Phillip Rosie Ring is to die for.  I also love these perfectly pretty stack rings in rose, yellow, and white metal.

11) The economics of pop music, and why Spotify is a bad deal for young artists.

Workday Eye Candy. Need an evening gown?  This $180 ASOS number hits way, way above its weight class.

    Thank you for all the work you do to collect these links! May I make a request? (Sorry if you’ve addressed it in the past, and I’ve missed it.) When linking to other sites, including links to clothing/shoes/accessories in your daily posts, could you possibly code the links to open in a new window please? I follow about 100 blogs on a daily basis, and forget which ones have links that open in a new window (without overwriting the blog post) versus which ones need right clicks on the browser. It’s so very helpful to be able to stay on your main post and click through all the links in one fell swoop, instead of clicking the back button after reading every link. Thank you again! ❤

      WE have a new design coming (I feel like I’ve been saying it forever, but paying for it, and coordinating it has taken more time than I thought.). The links in the new site will open in a new tab.

Beauty Review: Bondi Boost

As I age, I notice many changes in my body. Most are fine. Some are frustrating. Like many women, I lost a lot of hair in my postpartum phase. Being anemic for more than a year after, it didn’t grow back in to its former glory. So I’ve tried any number of shampoos, pills and […]

The Find: Shirts That Don’t Gape

I remember when Rochelle Behrens launched The Shirt — a button-down blouse with anti-gape technology (a patented internal button that keeps the look smooth). The idea seemed brilliant, but at the time, my bust didn’t require an extra button. One baby later, I understand the need for some extra security.

The Range: Printed Shirt Dresses

If you’re preparing your wardrobe for the warmer weather, don’t sleep on shirt dresses. Casual when worn with sandals or sneaker, dressy with flats or heels, they’re great for any work situation. They’re a great piece that you can throw on any time you need to look pulled together. Here are a few choices.

The Mondays: March 18, 2024

This weekend was a tricky one. The warm weather and bright sunshine of last weekend disappeared in a flurry of wet snow trapping our very active 18-month-old in the house with us. Plus, our babysitter cancelled, so neither of us feels ready for the week ahead. But in between making mac-and-cheese and watching Aristocats for […]
