Last month Lizz Schumer from the New York Times gave me a call and we chatted about capsule wardrobes and business casual dress in the workplace (see below). At the end of our chat, she asked me what courtesy title I would like as the Times still uses prefixes (Mrs, Ms, Miss, Mr). A man… Continue Reading Weekend Reads #26
Fall has finally hit in the DC area and it’s straight up cold. It was literally 90 degrees one day last week so it’s hard to accept we’re in the season for coats and boots. We pulled out all of Emerson’s winter clothes and also received a Stitch Fix box for her that has some… Continue Reading Weekend Reads #25
I’m writing this Friday. Karl and I just shot an upcoming real-life capsule wardrobe where I chose nine pieces of clothing from a single brand and created 20 different looks for work, weekend, and even a few social events. We shoot these in our home, moving all the furniture to make room for the backdrop,… Continue Reading Weekend Reads #24

I work on weekends, there’s no way to get everything with a blog done during the week, especially since I take time to go to the gym… Continue Reading Weekend Reads #22

For those who think blogging is an easy job, you’re so wrong and this week was such an example. All those fun events that bloggers attend are work. You spend so much of the time there trying to capture great photos and video for blogs and social and then you’re looking at your phone to… Continue Reading Weekend Reads #21
This was one of those weeks that didn’t stand out for anything unusually awful, but it was an uphill climb. It’s funny, many friends I spoke to felt the same about this week and all for different reasons. Maybe it’s the rain (those down south I’m wishing you the best through this hurricane!), back to… Continue Reading Weekend Reads #20
