Washable Wednesday: Drape Knit Wrap Dress

I always associate this burnt orangey red color with fall, but White House | Black Market has a ton of pieces in this color now, so if you like it, stock up! This machine-washable wrap dress looks like it’s a nice wrap option — I suspect they have it layered with this camisole, but it would also be nice with a regular black or white camisole beneath it (including a nursing camisole). This $78 top is another nice look in the color. The pictured dress is $98. White House | Black Market Drape Knit Wrap Dress
Psst: If you’re a fan of Pendleton, note that their sale prices just hit 70% off — lots of nice dresses that were originally north of $200 are now under $60.
Psst 2: In personal news, I should already be under the knife by the time you read this — for the surgery to repair my ACL, which I tore on our vacation from hell in November. Surgery is supposed to be quick, recovery is supposed to be “brutal” (yaaaaay), so please send good vibes if you can! The rest of the week should continue as expected.

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?
i would just ship a fisher price booster seat (the kind with straps and a tray) to the flat and then give it away when you leave. we bought one for the inlaws house for <$30.
hello,
I’m organizing a trip to DC, and won’t be able to travel with our high chair as we have to fly there. Does anyone have any tips / recommendations for a 16-month old?
thanks!
Best gift ideas for a first birthday (girl)? My LO’s is coming up. It feels silly since it obviously means nothing to her, but I figure I need to get her something and grandparents are also asking.
Any tips for getting a kid to poop in the potty? My 2 year old loves peeing in the potty but holds his poop until he’s in a diaper (naptime and overnight). Ideas to help him get it out on the potty? Because he’s holding it in the poops are… really, they’re horrifying (huge! smelly! gross!). Help!
Oh man, that Vacation from H3ll post is amazing. I’m reading through all of the stories and really enjoying my coffee break.
Good luck Kat! Enjoy the drugs and hopefully being waited on by DH :) And I hope you don’t live in a walkup!!
Honestly, I was in such a terrible work situation when I had my knee surgery it felt like a week-long vacation. I think in hindsight that was the beginning of the end for me at that job. I gave zero f***s and just laid on my couch hopped up on Percocet, taking calls and writing contracts, probably riddled with errors. I don’t think anyone from my team even asked if I was OK, lol.
Fast recovery, Kat! Hope everything goes smoothly.
Best of luck, Kat!
I posted a few weeks ago asking for thoughts on hiring a sleep consultant (recap: 16 month old, waking 3 times per night, approximately 1 hour each). In the responses, I received some helpful suggestions that I hadn’t yet tried. Based on those suggestions, I moved my daughter’s bedtime earlier, which I never would have thought to do…I was clearly missing some of her earlier tired signs before her second wind set in. I also added some post-reading cuddle time, which I hadn’t considered. It’s brief, and I don’t allow her to fall asleep on me, but we spend a few minutes together after I turn out the lights. We also shortened our pick-up/put-down times to 30 seconds max when we go in to check on her. These changes have done wonders for her sleep! In the past two weeks, she’s slept through the night most nights!! She’s had two nights where she woke up at 3am, but we only had to go in and do the pick-up/put-down one time. I’m starting to feel like myself again! So thank you all so much for the advice! You’ve seriously saved my sanity, as well as the money I would have spent on a consultant.
New question: she’s now waking up at 5 or 5:30 – fully awake and ready to start the day. She used to wake up at 6:30. Any thoughts on this? Normal toddler wake up time? Natural consequence of moving up her bedtime? We’ve tried the same pick-up/put-down strategy, but she’s clearly awake, so it’s not really working. I’ll take the early mornings over the multiple nighttime wakings, hands down, but if I could fix both, I’d be the happiest mom around.
