This dress has been around forever, but it’s marked to $29-$34 now and I just got it for myself, so I thought I’d share. I like the pockets, the fact that it’s machine washable, and the price. It’s available in regular, petite, tall, and plus sizes. (While I sometimes buy petites in Lands’ End, I needed a regular size here to get the length I wanted.) Note that today at Lands’ End you can save 30% with code ORDER30 and PIN 3007 (although it’s “not valid when combined with any other promotional offers,” alas). Lands’ End Ponté Keyhole Sheath Dress
Psst: I can’t believe that there are so few sizes and colors left of this old reader favorite sheath dress, also machine washable and with pockets — it must just be a temporary thing before they restock with next season’s colors. BUT: lucky sizes left and a steep discount.
Update: Thanks to a comment from a reader, we’ve learned that you can in fact use the 30%-off promo code on this dress even though it’s already on sale. Nice!

And — here are some of our latest threadjacks of interest – working mom questions asked by the commenters!
- The concept of “backup care” is so stupid…
- I need tips on managing employees in BigLaw who have to leave for daycare pickup…
- I’m thinking of leaning out to spend more time with my family – how can I find the perfect job for that?
- I’m now a SAHM and my husband needs to step up…
- How can I change my thinking to better recognize some of my husband’s contributions as important, like organizing the shed?
- What are your tips to having a good weekend with kids, especially with little kids? Do you have a set routine or plan?
So miracle of miracles it sounds like we may have found a daycare spot. Does anyone have advice for transitioning from a nannyshare to a daycare? My daughter will be turning 2 right around when she starts. She is generally an outgoing kid, but I don’t know what she’ll do with a giant change in her routine. I’m anticipating that she may have bit of anxiety.
A few questions/thoughts: Should I start discussing going to school with her now or introduce the idea closer to her start date (in about 6 weeks)? Should we stop in for a visit so that she can meet the teachers and see the classroom? Should we go back and forth between the nanny and daycare for a week or two to help her transition or just do a clean break? Do we need to start with short/part days at the daycare while she gets used to the new people or should we just keep a set routine from the start? Do I need to get any clothes or toddler items to send specifically to daycare? (They provide breakfast, lunch and snacks.) Do I need to label all of her clothes or just backup clothes? Suggestions for labels?
Anything else I need to do to get ready or advice? We’re in the middle of moving, too, so my brain is full of movers and contractors (in addition to work stuff). There’s a lot going on and I don’t want to make a mess of this change.
Love this dress! And the 30% off code worked, even though it’s already discounted.
For the moms of toddlers, what are your kids’ favorite books right now? My son just turned 2 and I’d love some ideas for new books.
And if anyone else is looking for ideas, his current favorites are:
Mr. Tiger Goes Wild
The Gruffalo
Three Ninja Pigs
Dragons Love Tacos
If You Give a Dog a Donut
Little Owl’s Night

Any suggestions for getting kids to transition from going on a small potty seat to a large toilet in public? We tried to train him at home on the regular toilet, but he absolutely refused. Now we want him to be able to leave the house without diapers, but he’s scared of the big seats in public restrooms. Any ideas?
Next week I’m taking my first overnight trip for work while pumping. What do people do with respect to washing pump parts and bottles in a hotel bathroom? Rinse with water followed by wipes? Bring a small container of dishwashing soap? I will have a fridge in my room but not sure about a microwave, so I think steam sterilizing is out.
Pregnant cold help!! I’m 32 weeks and 6 days (yes, I’m counting down) and Sunday the dreaded sore throat started. By Monday I was coughing, and I’m still coughing and super stuffed up. I called my OB, and I can take Robitussin and “regular” 4 hour Sudafed, and that’s about it.
I feel terrible, but I HAVE to be at work because we have a ton of attorneys out on vacation right now. I’ve got a big cup of mint tea and cough drops. Not sure if I’m looking for advice or just commiseration…this is day 4. My general doc always tells me “come see me if you’re not better in 10 days.” I’m sure I will be by then but it seems like an eternity.
Bought this dress yesterday before I saw it here. My second keyhole.
It’s very easy to find out any topic on web as compared
to books, as I found this paragraph at this website.
