    Essential Fall Formulas For A 5ft Body in a Low-Slung, Baggy World (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    I took a parenting tip from something I saw watching old reruns of Keeping Up with the Kardashians. As much as I hate to admit it, it is a goodie. At the end of each day, as I put my six year old to bed, I ask: What was your peak and pit today? We typically natter about the ups and downs of school, friends, and play. But recently, she’s been turning the question back on me. I told her that today, I got to play in my wardrobe for an hour and how much fun it was. She was utterly jealous – a little

    What to Wear When Life is Decidedly Unchic (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    “Wow, you have your hands full”. “I have no idea how you do it.” “You are really in the trenches.” As a working mother of young children – three-year-old twins and a six-year-old – these are phrases I hear on repeat. Often from well-meaning strangers as I’m outnumbered at the park, one kid fearlessly attempting to backflip off a jiggling balance beam, one stuck on top of a climbing structure, and the eldest smothering me with hugs. And they’re not wrong. I mean, the only way I’m managing to writ

    Finding Style Inspiration in Unexpected Places (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Coming home after our big adventure has been a rough re-entry. The kids haven’t been sleeping, I returned to work, we had no childcare for six days, I was jet lagged and in my luteal phase at the same time (barely survived) and generally off my game. I sat down to write this week and felt uninspired with no idea what to say. Oh, my outfits have been decent lately. Hardly a riveting post. But then… I sat for a second. The truth is, I’ve been inspired by things all week, just not in a traditional

    Transitional Dressing When the Transition is Anything but Gentle (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Transitional dressing is kind of my favorite. Some find dressing between seasons annoying, intimidating, or something they’d rather skip and get right to autumn. But I like it. The mishmash, the unexpected mix of fabrics, the shorts-with-jumper energy. I enjoy that there’s no “standard offering” for in-between dressing, perhaps because I’m a bit (a lot) Type A and it means I can’t fail. For example, I often fail at summer dressing. I’ve had “holy grail summer dress” on my wishlist for about 4 ye

    Off the dome 03: I went to London and Paris and didn’t buy ANYTHING (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Hii babes. Writing to you from my bath in Stepney Green, London. TMI? Well just call me Moaning Myrtle bc I get all my best ideas here. Catch up here on weeks one and two of this big old family adventure. Final Airbnb of our trip and it is not a particularly nice house, nor is it a nice bathroom, but it is in a convenient part of the city that won’t bankrupt me for the two days we’re here before we fly back to the US a
