Busted. By the wonderful Grace Farris.

Have you ever found yourself a dream summer dress that feels like freedom – barefoot on warm earth, wind-kissed hair, and a heart that beats to the rhythm of slow, sunlit days.

Where the fabric dances around your legs with every step, like walking through a soft breeze at golden hour – light, effortless, which makes life feel a little magical?

I stumbled upon these dreamy pieces from Rooh Collective – each one so poetic, so effortlessly flattering. Can you imagine where you’d wear them? I’m already daydreaming about slipping into those soulfully romantic ruffles on a sun-drenched road trip through the European countrysides, windows down, heart wide open… drifting through vineyard towns and collecting memories like pressed flowers.

Who else adore lightweight clothings? Honestly, it’s hard not to fall in love with the easy, breezy comfort of a light, breathable outfit – especially when the temperatures start to rise or you’re just craving something relaxed and effortless. I found some Eileen Fisher’s new arrivals that just feel like a breath of fresh air, both literally and stylistically.

How flattering is this soft earth-toned long skirt? It’s elegant, breathable, and so easy to wear. I can totally imagine myself lounging at home, heading out for a quick grocery run, or meeting up with friends for a casual brunch or coffee.

This cute cotton vest with a delicate front tie is the perfect lightweight layer for spring or summer. And I’m absolutely in love with this airy scoop-neck dress with pockets – it looks like it would fit my body with ease and grace. I could see myself wandering around every weekend in these outfits during summertime.

Do you also love lightweight materials and natural fabrics like the ones in Eileen Fisher’s lookbook? Let us know in the comments – we’d love to hear what you’re loving this season!

In a hurried world with infinite content, it’s worth considering that you’re no longer paid by the word when you write, in fact, you should pay for every extra word you use.

Be as brief as is useful.

You can’t.

That’s because toddlers don’t understand what an argument is and aren’t interesting in having one.

Toddlers (which includes defensive bureaucrats, bullies, flat earthers, folks committed to a specific agenda and radio talk show hosts) may indicate that they’d like to have an argument, but they’re actually engaging in connection, noise, play acting or a chance to earn status. It can be fun to be in opposition, to harangue or even to use power to change someone’s position.

An argument, though, is an exchange of ideas that ought to surface insight and lead to a conclusion.

If you’re regularly having arguments with well-informed people of goodwill, you will probably ‘lose’ half of them–changing your mind based on what you’ve learned. If you’re not changing your mind, it’s likely you’re not actually having an argument (or you’re hanging out with the wrong people.) While it can be fun to change someone else’s position, it’s also a gift to learn enough to change ours.

The toddler puts on a show of having an argument, but they are holding a tantrum in reserve. If they ‘win’ the argument, no tantrum is needed. If they lose, they can tell themselves that they tried but the other person deserved the tantrum because they didn’t listen.

“Tell me about other strongly-held positions you’ve changed as the result of a discussion like this one…” is a direct way to start a conversation about the argument you’re proposing to have. “What sort of information would make it likely you could see this in a different way?”

It probably doesn’t pay to argue over things we have chosen to believe as part of our identity.
