“You have just joined the coolest, most diverse, most empowering girl-gang in existence.”
Woah.
Those are the words that immediately caught my eye as I was opening up a (gorgeous) new shipment of underwear. EBY, which stands for Empowered By You, is so much more than incredibly soft and pretty underwear (though, it’s totally that, too). It’s a mission. And the...
Ultimately, I'm a pretty boring gal, fashion-wise. I tend to find my uniform and wear it to death. In the winter, it's a black turtleneck and jeans, in the summer it's a linen Reformation dress, and in the fall (or spring) when the temps are wildly fluctuating, I tend to flop around with a random assortment of pieces until...
I've been searching for a new tall boot. My ultimate pick is one in a rich camel tone, with a low, walkable heel, and a soft leather that won't irritate my skin. I need a pair of tall boots that work especially well with dresses and skirts, but can work with the odd pair of jeans, too.
I...

I've always had issues with cardigans -- long cardigans especially. I'm too petite and most cardigans are too oversized, or long for my frame. But last winter I decided to go for a cropped cardigan instead and during a Naadam sale, I took the plunge and ordered this Naadam Cashmere Ribbed Cropped Cardigan....
I don't usually get excited over cardigans. However!! J.Crew juuuust dropped a long, belted cardigan (in 100% cashmere, no less) that is *exactly* the cardigan I've been looking for.
Not only is it made from a cashmere that has been certified by the Aid by Trade Foundation (AbTF ensures the welfare of the cashmere goats, protects natural resources, improves the...
I bought my Danner Mountain Light hiking boots in 2016, in preparation for a trip. We were taking our two young boys to Iceland and had planned to do it up: explore towns, see natural wonders (read: waterfalls) and do a ton of hiking. Ideally, I needed a hiking boot that was waterproof...but one that wasn't overly heavy or...
A huge thank you to Backcountry and Shopstyle for sponsoring this post!
I learned the value of waterproof hiking pants on our trip to Iceland, oh gosh...five years ago now? I didn't arrive in Iceland with waterproof hiking pants — quick-dry leggings are almost as good, right? — but after a few days of consistently wet legs, I became the...
Two years ago, I did a review of EILEEN FISHER's simplified capsule wardrobe, called The System. I reviewed a boxy silk shell, a pair of Audrey-Hepburn-esque crepe pants, and slouchy silk joggers. At the time, my nod went to the crepe pants as 'the favorite'. But that review came out in December of 2018, and the silk joggers and...
With European countries easing travel restrictions, there's some ray of hope for those of us with wanderlust tendencies. Especially for those of us who are vaccinated and/or willing to get a negative COVID test prior to boarding...several of my favorite travel destinations (including Greece, Italy, France) have no-quarantine requirements. If you're interested in the details, AFAR has the details...
Let me tell you about the biggest hazard of working here at The Mom Edit. It's, hands-down, buying all.the.stuff that your colleagues make look SO freaking good. And thanks to the deep dive approach we take when it comes to evaluating fashion -- the trends, the specific pieces, the price points, the whole nine -- these purchases are usually...
