Without question, the most worn item in my wardrobe is a black-and-white striped tee. I wear it in winter under sweaters, in spring with white jeans, in summer with black shorts. I’ve been wearing the same one for years (it’s the best). But they don’t make it anymore. So here are some options for replacement.
When I started this blog, influencers still re-wore clothes. There were no haul videos filled with the latest from Shein before it winds up in a beach in Ghana poisoning the planet. There were no sponsored campaigns delivering fresh wardrobes each month. The content machine doesn’t like reruns.
When I was young, my Mother used to bring me along when she would go shopping for fabric. As a result, I spent a lot of time, killing time, flipping through pattern books. So when I spotted this dress, I was instantly transported to the pattern table at a Jo-Ann Fabrics.

Before we start today’s reader questions, I wanted to take a moment to talk a bit about mental health. For those who experience mental health challenges — whether occasionally or frequently — talking about our struggles is a double-edged sword.
LOVE the intern outfit! I think that’s the best looking of all the price points.
Nice, although I’m not sure of the wisdom in dressing your elected official like a jailbird…
Cute, but I’m officially over stripes. I have two striped tees, but I fear they have read the “fad” level of saturation. So, no more.
Also see this dress at H&M that’s only $19.95. (I know the site is in Swedish, but they don’t have a US shop online site. I promise I bought it at an H&M in LA, though.)
