A Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Turn Burn Out Into Bliss and Embrace Joy

on
Last weekend my youngest was committed to going to the "Water Steps" a man-made water fall in Pittsburgh by the rivers. (Fun Fact: Three rivers converge in Pittsburgh--The Ohio River, The Monongahela River, and the Allegheny River.)  He kept asking. I knew he was serious when he said, "If you won't take me, I'll ask  daddy!" Given that it was highly unlikely that would happen on an unscheduled day, I relented. So, we went. It wasn’t planned in the way most things in my life are. No calendar block. No checklist. No “productive” purpose attached. And, so in some respects it was uncomfortable. And yet, it seemed necessary. It was the idea of my 8-year-old—offered with the kind of urgency only children possess when something is profoundly important to them.

Dress First: A Great Site to Find a Stunning Homecoming Dress

on

This is a sponsored post, meaning that I have received compensation in exchange for my honest opinions about this product.

We are in the last days of summer. That means that it is back to school time and time for football! Football season means that it Homecoming season will be upon us before we know it. That means that mothers and their daughters will be in search of dresses. Shopping for mothers and their teen-aged daughters can lead to arguments about cut and cost. While I can’t answer the age old questions about what is the right age to wear a strapless dress or show cleavage I can share a new site I discovered that has great dresses at reasonable prices.

I was excited to be asked to review this site. I am a sucker for fashion. I also remember fighting with my mother about dresses for every school dance. Also, as a working mom, I am all about saving time. Traipsing through the mall to find a dress can be a huge time waster. 
 
Also, shopping on the Internet is a great way to stay fashionable and unique. Your daughter can find a special dress for her event without worrying that every other girl at school caught the same sale at the mall! That should make things a little calmer at you house.
 
So, I reviewed the site and happy to find that I loved what I saw. As someone who considers herself a bit of a fashionista the choices are good ones.  Also, there are lots of different styles that covered the fashion gamut and choices to please mothers and daughters. They run from sweet to sophisticated to sexy. They also have a great color selection.

So visit the site, enjoy the savings and the selection. Let me know if you find a dress!
