Have a big day ahead? Major hearing? Big trial? The presentation of your life? Gonna be at a conference with that ex? Whatever it happens to be, these are the fashion weapons that get me to the confidence level that I need to be at.

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.

Ha, the Forever21 blouse is actually my favorite…that's reassuring! Would you wear this style tucked in or not like in the pictures?
Silk for $18?
The Forever 21 blouse is indeed polyester. So is the second one. Ann Taylor Loft has similar styles right now, also polyester. I appreciate that polyester is easy to wash and of course the price is nice — just don't like when it's scratchy, which I thought was the case with the Ann Taylor Loft versions.
Jill: True. Even the more expensive designers are using fewer natural fibers, I think the cost of silk and cotton is forcing people to the other side.
