A Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Use Dresses to Stay Cool and Stylish in Hot Weather

Greetings from Chaton's World in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania! My days often start with laundry, early-morning emails, and making my kids a hot breakfast. They often end with late-night homework checks, making Instagram reels, and appearing on Celebrity Court of Public Opinion. Somewhere in between, I’m navigating boardrooms, working towards deadlines, and immersed in the good, bad, and ugly chaos of motherhood and household management. As a working mom of three and a professional carving out space in corporate environments, I share my journey of balancing leadership with loving my family, and I sprinkle it with self-care tips. Here, you’ll find honest reflections, hard-earned lessons, and practical strategies for creating an authentic life that you enjoy. If you’re trying to do it all without losing yourself in the process, you have found your sister in the struggle!  Continue reading to discover some thoughts, hacks, and/or lessons that I have learned from navigating my world.

Memorial Day Fashion

Even though I spent most of Memorial Day cleaning the house, I decided to wear a festive outfit. I wore red,white and blue plaid shorts, espadrilles and a pony tail. I like the plaid shorts a lot even though they are a bit different from my normal pattern-free fashion choices.  I have had them for a few years, but based on my read of the fashion magazines this season they have made a come back! If you're curious, they are not made by any known designer. I believe that I scored them at Marshall's, otherwise known as fashion heaven on earth! I got the navy shirt at Target back when Isaac Mizrahi had a line there. I miss those days!

Below are some photos.  Let me know what you think!
