I know, I know: everyone thinks I’m obsessed with cobalt. And I totally am. But I also love this color of green, which White House | Black Market has in abundance this season. This “coverup” may be the oddest name I’ve ever seen for a cardigan, but I like it — it’s got a bit of a waist at the back, gold buttons on the shoulder, and it’s machine washable. It’s also totally on trend — longer cardigans are very in this season. This one is $88 (also available in a number of other colors). White House | Black Market Long Sleeve Essential Coverup

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?
Looking for encouragement! I left my job in Big Law to move across the country and am now job searching in my new city. I don’t have enough traditional legal experience to go in house, though the sum total of my work experience would qualify me. And I’m scared of going back into big law with my infant – who I will never see. I’ve been networking to try to avoid it but law is such an inflexible field. Even if you have great qualifications, you have to check every box. Ugh. Advice on trying to find non-big law jobs? I’m in a larger city but with little government opportunity.
My daughter is allergic to a lot of things, but principally dairy, eggs, soy, and sesame. We are traveling to Europe next week and I’m very nervous about this. I’ve got the translation to tell people this at restaurants, but how easy will this be to avoid? Has anyone else dealt with similar allergies successfully while traveling?
Any reason why a 3-month-old’s wet diapers would be stinkier than usual, if he’s only drinking from the breast or expressed milk? We just switched to a size 2 Huggies, from size 1 Pampers, and my husband is convinced there’s a chemical in the Huggies that changes the smell to bad. I wondered if it was something I hate, but how would I even track that, if he’s drinking expressed milk from 1 month ago and otherwise seems happy? But the smell continues, for a few days, now… thoughts?
Hi Moms! Seeking input from anyone with experience or thoughts on sibling relationships when there are 2 kids and there is a four year age gap between them? My daughter is 2 and we are probably going to wait another year before trying again due to various reasons. My only other concern is that I would be 37 at the time of birth for the next kiddo, if everything goes as planned……Thoughts on the timing? Thank you.
So I posted a few days ago about switching daycares. I dropped off my daughter this AM, and just walked out giggling. She greeted EVERY SINGLE KID she saw on the way in (it’s a long hallway to walk through) by name and made some ridic. comment.
“Hi, Lucas.” “Hi Megan.” “Nice hat, Emma.” “Ooh, pretty dress Miss Tracey.” “No, Casey, not yours. Mine lunchbag [to the boy that tugged her lunchbag as she passed him]”
I am really not wild on the teachers but the thought of her having to re learn a bunch of kid’s names and where her cubby is and etc etc etc in an environment where she is safe and apparently quite the socialite is just too daunting.
I’m traveling for several weeks with my one-year old and want to bring a portable high-chair. I’ve seen several “cloth” ones on Amazon and am looking for recommendations from someone who has used one.
My number one concern is ease of use in a variety of different types of chairs.
any suggestions?
Here’s one I saw, for reference:

thanks!
Ladies, need advice about requesting to go part time. I’m a mid level associate at a law firm. My maternity leave ends in October, and I’m going to reach out to the head of my group to request to go part time at 60%. Our firm HR manual says that when you return from maternity leave, you can work at 60% for 6 months subject to your group’s discretion. However, I don’t know anyone in my group who has done this before (there is one partner who works 80% and there used to be an associate at 80% but she left last year). The head of my group is 40, very friendly and warm and he has 4 children (but his wife is a stay at home mom). My biggest fear is that he’ll think I’m slacking. The truth is I want to ease back into things, I also want the reduced hours so I can spend as much time with my daughter as possible. My husband is also an attorney and his hours are really insane (he averages 2500 billables). We will have a nanny 3 days a week and my mother in law the other 2, but ideally I would either work from home two days a week so I can still see my daughter when I have lulls in work and I would also like to breast feed her as much as possible. I do still want to have my career, but I am ok with the reduced hours and salary for a year or so or whenever I decide I’m ready to work more (maybe when my daughter goes to pre school?)
Anyways, long story short, I’m looking for advice on how to approach the head of my group about all of this. Thank you!
So, my daughter’s summer tops are all stained and gross, but she’ll need t-shirts and sundresses through September and maybe into October (with cardigans in the morning). I don’t think there is any chance she’ll still fit into them next summer, so these need to be bargains. I was planning to hit the outlet mall this weekend, and then realized I could hit serious back to school shopping, which is not good when shopping with a toddler in tow.
Long story short – does anyone know of any killer online sales of leftover toddler summer clothes?
