It’s that hot pink Banana Republic pantsuit again! Going through my archives I see I purchased this suit early in 2017. I wore it to the rewardStyle Conference, to NewsBash, to showcase the Chico’s How Bold Are You campaign. I’ve worn the blazer alone, the pants alone, and the combination to many situations off the…
Looking back on this week, I feel the theme was “I don’t shine if you don’t shine,” which is taken from Shine Theory. Ann Friedman and Aminatou Sow (well known for their fab podcast Call Your Girlfriend as well as individual projects and an upcoming book) coined Shine Theory, which is collaborating rather than competing…
I love hoop earrings, and since high school, I’ve worn bamboo hoops. Although I still wear them, I feel they are looking a bit try-hard on me if not with just the right outfit. I don’t walk around with a t-shirt saying, “No really, I’ve worn these earrings for 25 years” and a middle-aged white…
Last week we discussed the difficulty in finding a great pair of white jeans. This week, another difficult item to shop for, swimsuits. The worst!

Wow, this felt like a true “blogger week”. Some weeks I feel like I’m still at my job, just working from home. I spend all day in front of the computer or else on conference calls. But some weeks, there are a lot of varying things, things I never would have been able to do…
It’s good to have a few versatile dresses in your closet at the ready for all sorts of situations. This dress from Universal Standard has been worn many times yet this is its debut on the blog. I love that it’s a classic style with an edge thanks to a modern cut and mixed media…
I find jeans to be one of the hardest things to shop for, right up there with bras and swimwear. When it comes to white jeans, it’s even more difficult. They’re transparent, they bag out, they’re too thin, they’re shaped weird… why is it so hard to take a wardrobe staple and make it wearable? …
So yesterday’s post was controversial. And let me tell you, it wasn’t easy for me to agree to it. This is what I shared yesterday in the WO2 Community regarding the choice: I live in a metro area; I am walking distance (not a quick walk but walk if need be) to a Target, a…
