the golden rule of personal style 27 Aug 2013 | 06:32 am
I turned 45 in the spring which apparently means I am officially middle aged now. (My kids keep saying we hope you will live to be 120! And I’m all OMG NO PLEASE NO HELP.) Anyway, being 45 means that...
bye bye, white shirt 23 Aug 2013 | 03:00 pm
I’m a big believer in basics, those pieces that can serve as building blocks for essentially any outfit. I’m also a big fan of lists, because it’s just so much easier to follow directions than it is ...
give a hand, get something pretty 22 May 2013 | 08:13 pm
I want to thank everyone who reached out after the tornado in Moore to check on us. We’re fine — we live, as they say in Oklahoma, a “far piece” from the destruction and were safe at home when the tor...
glam up your summer basics with Stella & Dot 15 May 2013 | 07:03 pm
It’s almost summer, you all (six more school days for us! hooray!) and it’s already crazy hot here, which means I’ve totally started overthinking how to dress up my warm weather wardrobe. The easy ans...
style after 40: dos and don’ts 8 Apr 2013 | 11:14 pm
Show of hands: How many of you are 40? 40-ish? 40-something? 39 and holding? I thought so. I’m turning 45 in a few weeks (cupcakes for all!) and I’ve been thinking a lot about what the rules are for s...

In exactly three weeks, I will turn 45. Happy birthday to me! Let’s all have a cupcake! I’ve been thinking a lot lately about what it means to be 45. It means I’m old, yes, as my kids like to remind m...
goodbye, winter 9 Mar 2013 | 12:02 am
Hey, Internet. What’s up? We’re having a funny burst of spring-like weather here (which probably means we’re thisclose to either a blizzard or a string of killer tornadoes) and I’m digging around in m...
spring forward 26 Feb 2013 | 09:37 pm
I always roll into January completely exhausted; the holidays (and the long school break) kill me, every year. By the beginning of February, I’m ready to get back on track, which usually means cleanin...
are you serious? 5 Feb 2013 | 12:15 am
On Saturday morning, I got up at 5 am to run 10 miles. I finished in 1:37, without stopping once. I ran a negative split, which means that I ran the last five miles faster than the first five. And the...
