As you know, I’m a huge fan of jumpsuits — they’re the one-and-done alternative to dresses.
If you’re looking to refresh your work wardrobe for summer, consider this jumpsuit from Banana Republic. Their Sandwash Cropped Wide-Leg Jumpsuit is flattering on both petite and taller frames. Its relaxed fit, supersoft tencel blend, and elastic waist make it the perfect transition piece for those heading back into the office after months of tees and sweats.
This jumpsuit is $120 at Banana Republic (currently 30% off). It comes in regular (XS–XXL), petite (XXS–L), and tall (S– XL) in four office-friendly colors: cool beige, black, navy, and salted caramel brown.

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?
This is a great article about the hidden load that moms carry. I disagree with her suggestion that moms just stop doing some stuff because the dads will pick it up. That has not been my experience and the kids suffer which isn’t fair to them. Like I tried that with the kids learning his mother tongue, it wasn’t picked up and now their grandmother and cousins can’t understand them.
What is the communication like at your daycare? And what are some tips for a FTM to improve the flow of information about my infant? We’re only a few weeks in but her teacher doesn’t update the app they use that much so we often don’t know anything except what the director tells us at pickup. even that is just when she last ate, and it seems kind of chaotic at pickup honestly.
Had a very frustrating conversation with a daycare teacher yesterday in which she mentioned she had no plans to get the COVID vaccine and has never gotten a flu shot. All this while my kids have been sent home what feels like constantly for runny noses (and no other symptoms). Not sure what I can really do about it other than put some light pressure on the administration to continue requiring masks for non-vaccinated staff as restrictions lift, but definitely open to any suggestions.
Tell day care you want them to mandate vaccines for all staff, move your kid to a vaccinated classroom, or you’ll have to consider changing day care.
Tell the teacher you don’t appreciate her putting your children at risk.
The discussions on the slog of life with young kids have been helpful to me (that it is a common feeling). I am trying to think of ways to “inject joy” into time with my kids (2.5 and 7 months)… things like singing songs/having fun music on, making sure we go on my favorite walks, making a fancy coffee to take on a walk… what ways do you have to make life with young kids more joyful? We do have lots of fun playing but there are so many things that need to be done (meals, diaper changes, getting ready to go somewhere) that are probably more painful than they need to be.
so last night where i live there was a tornado warning around 11pm. i’m not really familiar with tornado protocols – was i supposed to wake up my fast asleep toddlers and take them somewhere? we live in an apartment building on the 4th floor.
Gift ideas for a 7 year old girl? I have a nearly 7 year old girl, so I should know this but my brain is in overthink mode. Budget is up to $30.
Thoughts on why using the Pfizer vaccine off-label for high-risk younger kids on a provider-prescribed basis is not being discussed? Maybe I am just not internetting well enough, but I can’t seem to find any discussion of this. I get that there would be major provider liability concerns with off-label use for kids when it is only approved for adults, but now that it is approved for 12 year olds, wouldn’t the liability risk for prescribing to slightly younger kids on a selective basis be much less? (Cross posting from main site.)
DD just started at daycare, and yesterday we forgot her pacifier. We called a few times to ask whether we should drop one off, but could never get someone on the phone. When I arrived for pickup, a senior staffer at the center told me that she had gone across the street to Target to buy pacifiers (her baby is a similar age), and had given one to DD.
I’m weirded out by this. I don’t like the idea that someone is buying things for my kid without my permission. Also did they sanitize the pacifier?
Should I say something or am I overreacting? Husband thinks it’s not a big deal. FYI, this is a Bright Horizons.
