I’d LOVE a red Chanel purse. If I ever purchased one, it would def be vintage.
Ooh. That sucks about the sweater!! Good to know.
I bought my first pair of Mother jeans in January. I like them, but am still happy with my normal Madewell jean purchase. A lot more affordable too.
I used my birthday Anthro % off for the Mother jeans.
I’m a fan of Cuyana and Emerson Fry. I get compliments when I where things from both, especially Emerson Fry. The black linen dress I bought there last summer is definitely a winner. Any day now, I should be receiving a pair of navy wide leg linen pants from Cuyana. I’m also obsessed with their silk dress. I own in two colors and wear a lot. My first one I’ve had for over five years now. Their Pima cotton stuff is really nice too.
For affordable basics, I hear people like Quince, but haven’t tried them yet. Was considering ordering a couple of the silk camisoles from there. I love the ones I have from Cuyana, but colors are limited and they’re expensive.
Thanks! I’ll look into it.
Yellow is one color that has me perplexed. I can’t do many pale colors, except maybe a peachy orange or a few light pinks. Yellow has to be specific. Maybe a marigold.
A lot of the colors that are popular right now or that I’m seeing in stores are a NO.
I think it’d be fun! Where was it, if you don’t mind my asking? Doing it with a couple friends would be a good time.
That’s fun Copa! Did you enjoy it?
I think I’m a warm. I’d have fun doing a color analysis though. Report back Copa!
When the husband and I first started talking marriage, he asked if I’d consider a prenup. I said sure. It didn’t bother me. He never brought it up again. I think he was burned a little in the first marriage (he doesn’t talk about it) and he wanted to gage my reaction.
I think the husband would be thrilled if I made more!!
@copa, one of my single girlfriends is well established, an EVP and makes a lot. She’s run into problems dating… I remember one guy who was pretty cool but couldn’t get over the fact that she owned her own place. We’re early 40s!
The husband and I keep separate finances. He makes quite a bit more than me. Not quite double. We both have a 401k. Since he’s a lot better with money and with planning (he even does his parent’s finances), I send him a set amount each month. That goes to our mortgage / savings / big trips / bills. I take care of most of the grocery shopping for the month, unless he’s out and picks something up. We don’t nickel and dime each other.
I check in with him every few months to make sure we’re in good shape and ask if I need to contribute more or whatnot.
Wow, @LadyE, that’s a lot. It sucks. I hope you continue to feel better. I’m glad you got a diagnosis, and congrats on the promotion!! Sending a hug your way.
Ha! Perfect timing for that article.
