Since women’s pants often don’t have functional pockets, I often find myself trying to balance both a squirmy baby and a slippery phone — and I can’t even tell you the number of times I’ve ended up dropping the phone. Or I’m trying to catch a cute photo moment and miss it while I’m fumbling … Read More about Make My Life Easier Thursday: Collapsible Grip & Stand for Phones
Washable Wednesday: Botanical Blooms Collared Top
Hopefully by making this pick for Washable Wednesday, I am willing springtime into existence. I like how this top has the blue and white stripes to keep the floral print plus Peter Pan collar from looking too froufrou, and the horizontal stripes plus middle pleat draws the eye up and down. Since my baby will … Read More about Washable Wednesday: Botanical Blooms Collared Top
Nursing/Postpartum Tuesday: Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
The way I feel about using coconut oil postpartum is the way the dad in My Big Fat Greek Wedding feels about Windex. It will cure what ails you. I used it both on myself and on my baby in various ways. Here’s the short list: on nipples after a nursing session instead of expensive … Read More about Nursing/Postpartum Tuesday: Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
Budget Thursday: Bow-Front Sweater
There were years when I stopped shopping at J.Crew Factory, although I forget why now — I hated paying shipping, or some other odd annoyance-while-shopping-online reason. But the shopping experience has gotten better in recent times, and it feels like there are always extra discounts and/or free shipping codes to be had, so it’s back … Read More about Budget Thursday: Bow-Front Sweater
Washable Workwear Wednesday: Belleville Top
We’ve featured The Fold’s gorgeous origami-like jacket/top before on Corporette — but I had NOT noticed that it’s part of their “easy care” line. What now? They have a ton of beautiful, interesting clothes that are all hand washable (which, to my mind, means “machine wash on delicate cycle,” but that’s me.) Lots of great … Read More about Washable Workwear Wednesday: Belleville Top
Accessory Tuesday: Davey Pump
This shoe has some really solid reviews over at Zappos (and, whoa, Amazon has a ton of colors) — and given that it’s from one of the readers’ favorite brands for comfortable heels, Franco Sarto, I’m not that surprised. I like the lowish heel (2.5″) combined with the straps (I find a good ankle strap … Read More about Accessory Tuesday: Davey Pump
Maternity Monday: Twist-Front T-Shirt Dress
T-shirt dresses can be a bit on the casual side for a conservative office — but provided they’re opaque and in good shape without pilling or the like, you can often dress them up with enough jewelry and accessories to make the casual-ness of the dress fade away. This twist-front dress from Old Navy looks … Read More about Maternity Monday: Twist-Front T-Shirt Dress
Holiday Weekend Open Thread
Something on your mind? Chat about it here. Corporette readers recently recommended The Hating Game by Sally Thorne, and I read it and really loved it! It was very funny — as the publisher describes it, it’s “a hilarious and sexy workplace comedy all about that thin, fine line between hate and love.” (If you … Read More about Holiday Weekend Open Thread
Washable Workwear Wednesday: Plaid Pencil Skirt
Oooh, I like this skirt — I’m a fan of a wide plaid in a sedate color ANYWAY, but the different fabric lay on the side solves one of my biggest pet peeves with affordable clothes and prints: the way the patterns line up is often very, very off. (This was my biggest problem with … Read More about Washable Workwear Wednesday: Plaid Pencil Skirt
Postpartum Tuesday: Classic Dream Blanket
I’m sure I’ve mentioned this before, but we looooooved these blankets for our littles. By which I mean they loved them so much that we had to get multiples for each kiddo. They’re like the muslin swaddles in that they get softer and softer as you wash them — but they’re four layers of puffy … Read More about Postpartum Tuesday: Classic Dream Blanket
Makeup & Beauty Monday: La Petite Robe Noire Lipcheek
Have you ever noticed that if you go out LOOKING for something specific (a new white blouse, a pair of jeans, a new liquid blush or a certain color of red lipstick) you never, ever find it. I feel like all of my best discoveries have been happy accidents — as is my newest obsession, … Read More about Makeup & Beauty Monday: La Petite Robe Noire Lipcheek
Weekend Open Thread
These cork wedge sandals from UGG caught my eye on a recent trip to Nordstrom — they look gorgeous and stylish as well as comfortable. I like the cute little tassel on the back, too. They come in black and brown in sizes 5–12 at Nordstrom for $119.95. You can also find them at Zappos and Amazon. Zoe Wedge … Read More about Weekend Open Thread
