I love what Simone says about not being too precious about clothes. I really struggle with this! I think it's because I've always owned a fair amount of vintage so the instinct is to "protect" the pieces. Also love the bandeau top with sweats. Fun and serious! Nice feature.

Loved this one, especially the nuggets of wisdom on boundaries for work and family. ❤️

I like the idea of returning something if you haven’t worn it in two weeks!

Me too. Simone's special talent is 100% nailing the art of shopping.

HOLY SH*T -- an epic dresser. Loved reading this. My "child" is now nearly 21 but I still feel all of it.

I felt this hit home on so many levels. Even the morning haze. 😅 loved the Bottega look, in particular. 🫶

Great read, interesting to me. I've never had children so I'm looking into an unfamiliar yet fascinating world of how others thrive and live. Thank you.

The weekday mornings in the winter are SO HARD

I'm certain it would be mind bending for me year around. I commend you and and all mothers and fathers.

Mine never made raising kids look difficult. It wasn't until years later I realized the sacrifices. And I didn't have to have my own to learn and and thankful.

What a nice thing to say about your parents. I hope

You’ve told them that too ❤️

Yes I said so many times. They're both long gone, but never forgotten.

Loved this one, for her style and her clothes, but also for the wisdom. Perfect.
