Happy Cyber Monday! Have you guys seen any good deals yet? I'm just starting to poke around, but the Nordstrom sale continues to be one of the best deals out there, particularly for spluge-worthy brands like Max Mara, Akris Punto, and more. (Saks and Neiman Marcus are both worth looking at as well this morning for this kind of purchase, where both have a tiered gift card offer up to $750 for regular-price purchases) This dress may look simple and like a dress you could get at $80 at one of the mall stores — but the difference in fabrics and tailoring is apparent as soon as you touch it. It was $795, but is now marked to $476. Glassa Sheath Dress
This $69 plus-size dress has a similar color and vibe, and this $128 dress in regular sizes is a classic.

So hopefully I won’t seem totally out of touch with technology in this post… but…
How do you make a modern-day equivalent of a mix tape?
I have a friend who is going through a terrible bout of post-partum depression. I want to make a playlist for her, but don’t want her to have to go out and purchase the songs on iTunes in order to hear them. The junior high version of me would have just burned a CD or made a tape. I don’t know other alternatives. Ideas?
Also would appreciate song ideas to include for a working/nursing/pumping/new mom to lift her spirits, if any come to mind. Thank you!
Does she use Spotify?
If she doesn’t have Spotify, you could make a playlist on YouTube, set it to private and send her the link.
