The Better TV segment I shot last week is up, with comfortable, summery footwear options for your Father's Day Gift consideration! (The boat shoes and flip-flops are my favorites.)

Lust Or Less: Floral Sandals
Despite the fact that I do not enjoy the price tag on the J.Crew version, for me this one is a no-brainer...those Tabitha Simmons sandals are just summer-perfect, and I love the unique country-girl-goes-glam pairing of the soft ruffle and gold sole. They can go everywhere from a wedding to a BBQ to a cocktail party and look completely chic. Still: for less formal events, I think the H&M pair would be adorable with jeans, denim shorts or a simple dress.
Speaking of J.Crew: these silk pants are J.Crew Collection, which ordinarily would mean they're Lust-Only. But they're also hugely on sale ($69.99; also available in black with a white stripe), so...Must.
How-To: Get Your Pose On
Q. Hey Jordan,
Big fan of your blog here with a question for you.
I look like a complete goober in any sort of formal posed photographs. I mean I really can't take a good picture to save my life, especially when it's a full body shot - where do I put my arms? My feet??
I have an event coming up that's going to involve a LOT of posed photos, and I was wondering if you could do a little expert tutorial on how not to look either a) super stiff or b) like some sort of limb-flailing octopus, which are my two go-tos.
For Those Extra-Lazy Evenings
These are so delicious.
They’re also my favorite Simple Skincare product right now, for two reasons:
1. Warmer weather means more sweat and general buildup, so they’re great additions to my purse on especially hot days (and are gentle enough to use on my son’s sweaty little self, as well).
2. After 9:30PM rolls around, I become horrifyingly lazy and need to catapult myself directly into bed.
Hiking Gear
Not really.
But the path near our house also isn't really a "hike" - more like an amble - so that's OK.
Let's talk about vests for a second. I never understood (or wore) vests until recently; I didn't really get the point. They seemed fussy, and extraneous, and whenever I was wearing one I felt like Vest Girl. Like if a friend were describing me to someone I'd met briefly at a party they'd be like, "Remember the girl in the vest? Her."
