Whether you’re packing a daycare lunch, a school lunch, or your own lunch in the post-baby-budget world, having kids introduces many of us to a new competitive sport: lunches. I kid — but only a bit. It seems like there’s suddenly pressure to pack the healthiest, non-chokiest, variety-filled, visually appealing lunch box — with as … Read More about Working Moms and Kids’ Lunches
Everyone Thursday: Hyper Medallion Tiled Scarf
Ooooh: I love the colors in this bright scarf, over at Lands’ End, of all places — the colors just look like they’d be flattering on every skin tone, don’t they? While you’re there check out their “On the Counter” section, where sales get more steeply discounted each day (I’ve gotten some crazy deals on … Read More about Everyone Thursday: Hyper Medallion Tiled Scarf
Washable Wednesday: Westminster Dress
This machine washable dress from Boden looks fabulous — nice ladylike hemline, flattering fit-and-flare shape, and a high neckline. It’s available in a variety of colors, all on sale (which, alas, means limited sizes). It’s $96-$110. Boden Westminster Dress Psst: In case you missed it, we rounded up washable work pants last week at Corporette. (L-2)
Feeding Tuesday: Gummy Stick Baby Gum Massager
A few weekends ago we went to a party, and my 10-month-old, Harry, had his usual necessities clipped to his shirt: a Binky on a cord, and this ZoLi teether on a second cord. One of my good friends (a mom to three) had never seen these kinds of teethers, so I thought I’d share. The … Read More about Feeding Tuesday: Gummy Stick Baby Gum Massager
Maternity Monday: Two-Tone A-Line Maternity Tank Top
Call me crazy, but I think this would look amazing with cardigan or blazer over it for the office, or for the weekend with a fun pair of maternity ankle pants in a complementary color or pattern (a dark purple or dark green, perhaps, or a fun pattern). The top is part of Rachel Zoe’s … Read More about Maternity Monday: Two-Tone A-Line Maternity Tank Top
Finally Friday: Pull-On Pencil Skirt
This pull-on ponte knit skirt looks great, particularly if your middle is still a little touchy, either from a c-section scar, some postpartum weight fluctuation, or, hey, early pregnancy. (I particularly remember while pregnant with Harry (my second) that I couldn’t stand any zippers or buttons at a super early point in the pregnancy, like … Read More about Finally Friday: Pull-On Pencil Skirt
How to Organize Family Photos — and Make Photo Projects
I don’t know about you guys, but I have been overwhelmed by the number of photos we take of the boys. So many good family photos!(Part of the problem: I text the grandparents a “picture of the day” of each of the boys.) Over the years I’ve developed my own system for dealing with all of … Read More about How to Organize Family Photos — and Make Photo Projects
Everyone Thursday: Wrap-Front Jersey Dress
Happy Thursday, ladies! I really like the look of these short-sleeved wrap dresses at Old Navy. Not only are they machine washable and cute, they’re also great to wear if your weight is fluctuating (particularly in early pregnancy or postpartum), and they’re good for nursing. The same print also comes in a maternity dress for when … Read More about Everyone Thursday: Wrap-Front Jersey Dress
Washable Wednesday: ‘Ship Faced’ Pink Slouchy Oversized Sweatshirt
For Washable Wednesday, I thought we’d feature a weekend item — this fantastic sweatshirt from Etsy seller DentzDenim. Not only does it cover your tuchus, but it also is a great way to tell the world, “Even though my kid is REALLY into pirates right now, I’ve managed to both encourage that and keep my own … Read More about Washable Wednesday: ‘Ship Faced’ Pink Slouchy Oversized Sweatshirt
Pumping Tuesday: Freemie Milk Collection Cups
Wow — I had no idea these things existed until readers mentioned them in our last discussion on the best clothes for pumping at work. The basic idea is that they obviate the need for a horn, and allow you to collect milk in the cups themselves. Fascinating. Ladies who’ve used them, how have you found the … Read More about Pumping Tuesday: Freemie Milk Collection Cups
Maternity Monday: Kaitlyn Maternity Wrap Dress
Ladies, what do you think is the best maternity wrap dress? There are so many out there — from Isabella Oliver, Gap, Lirola, etc, etc. I feel like this Everly Grey Kaitlyn dress has been around forever and is a strong contender — I like the variety of prints it comes in, and the knee length and … Read More about Maternity Monday: Kaitlyn Maternity Wrap Dress
Finally Friday: Pronto Changing Station
I always think of these changing pads as “diaper bag clutches,” and they’re great in specific situations — they really come in handy if you’re in a restaurant or other public place and you just want to grab the relevant stuff and whisk your child off to the bathroom to be changed (or ask your partner to do it!). I also like a diaper … Read More about Finally Friday: Pronto Changing Station
