I’m trying to cook more in 2011; so far, I’m patting myself on the back, if only because I haven’t had to throw an entire meal in the trash. Yet. I’m sure that’s coming....
Hi Susan, I have one simple fashion question that I know you can help with. How do you care for your cashmere sweaters? Hand wash or dry clean? If you hand wash, how exactly do you do it? I’m n...
There is nothing more frustrating than standing in front of a closet full of clothes and thinking, “I have nothing to wear.” Admit it — you do it. So do I. Our solution, most often, is one of two thi...
last outfit of 2010 I’ve gotten really into list making recently, largely because I seem to be at the age where writing things down is the only way to remember to do them. Wade gave me two very...

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! You know, that window where you’re doing all the things you normally do plus a million extra things for the holidays. Whee, fun! (We still do not...
I love my skinny jeans. And before you say, but that’s because you’re skinny! let me tell you this: I am not skinny. I’m pear shaped; I have small shoulders and no chest to speak of...
It’s cold here, which means I’m fighting a constant battle against dry skin. Heated air inside, frigid air outside — my poor hands are rough and cracked. Or they would be, except th...
2010 is winding down, which seems like as good a time as any to take stock. I’m not big on New Year’s resolutions (I’m the one who can’t even make a life list with more than o...
My friend Erika wants to know about leggings — specifically, “Am I too old to rock that look?” (For the record, no, she’s not. Mostly because she’s a wee tiny baby, at l...
I’m in a list-y kind of mood these days, so imagine my delight when I cracked open my December Lucky magazine and found their editors’ 100 edicts to live by. It’s the ultimate fashi...

Emma Watson was totally rocking her pixie cut this week, at a series of Harry Potter events in London. I love how she’s able to style her bangs in two completely different ways — who says...

Two of my absolute favorite things are a great deal, and really terrific advice. Getting them both together — say, getting a consultation with a personal stylist for 30% of their normal fee ...
Every single day ending in y once in a while, I do something that makes me wonder how it is possible that I have gotten my kids this far in life without some gigantic catastrophe befalling us. Simila...

Little girls love necklaces. Big girls love necklaces, too, of course. This holiday season, think about gifting a special girl (big or little) a personalized necklace from Stacy Smith’s Beloved...
I’ve started my Christmas shopping — well, I’ve started my list, which is pretty much the same thing. Starting the list also marks the beginning of two months of complaining about h...

My kids trick or treated last night, because you can’t trick or treat on a Sunday. It’s in the bible apparently. Waaay in the back, I guess. (Ok not really — the mayor’s offic...
Believe it or not, it’s almost November, people, which means that it’s time to get your — ok, my — act together for the holidays. Last year, you might remember, I barely manag...
White House|Black Market is not really a go-to brand for me; their pieces tend to be a little … less sophisticated than my typical default. (Is that a nice way of saying it? Nicer than “t...
I am not a gin drinker; gin always tastes, to me, like the water from the Christmas tree stand — too much juniper for my palate. Recently, though, Wade and I discovered Hendrick’s gin, wh...
I often find myself longing, in a very romanticized way, for various things from bygone eras: dresses for day, gentlemen who stand when a lady enters the room, child-free weeknight cocktail hours. In...
I’m a huge fan of the statement necklace, as you all know. But when you have a small child, particularly one who is in that delightful phase where everything goes directly into her mouth, your ...
