Dresses but also Deodorant, Caviar, and 6-7

Send us a text

The kind of week where you fix a broken deodorant with sheer will, crawl back onto the Peloton, and somehow end up at a house party with caviar pie and pigs in blankets is exactly our tempo. We’re juggling four-kid calendars, long drives to the wrong gym, and those quiet late-night moments when a red eye and a to-do list won’t quit—and we still manage to squeeze in a laugh (or ten).

We dive into everyday myths and trends that shape our lives more than we admit. SPF isn’t “hours of protection,” no matter what your sister says. A Florida baby named "Six Seven" sparks a real talk about names, identity, and how choices age. The Bears-Packers game delivers a live lesson in sportsmanship for our kids, reminding us that community often shows up when the score doesn’t. Then it’s style time: poet core gets a vote, turtlenecks earn side-eye, loafers get love, and the universal joy of dresses with pockets becomes nonnegotiable. We share fit hacks—adjustable straps for uneven shoulders—and that electric nostalgia of wedding and communion dresses, petticoats and all.

Work culture is changing too. After-work happy hour is fading as hybrid schedules and sober curiosity rise, but mentorship and camaraderie don’t have to disappear. We talk better replacements—mocktails, coffee walks, bite-size gatherings that build trust without pressure. And yes, we go full foodie: Noma’s $1,500 LA pop-up and its free table for young hospitality pros, plus our own kitchen courage, trying a classic caviar pie and admitting what we liked. It’s comfort, curiosity, and a little chaos stitched together by humor, heart, and dresses that let us breathe.

If this blend of real life, style smarts, and culture shifts hits home, tap follow, share with a friend who loves pockets, and drop a review to tell us your unexpected high this week.
