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.
I have the Club Monaco flats and like them very much. They are well made and comfortable, but the embossed leather is quite delicate–I have to be careful about stubbing my toes or heels, since the leather will scratch off. I wouldn’t recommend them for commuting-keep them in the office and change into them like you might a pair of heels.
I’ve been obsessing over these Tory Burch d’ orsay snakeskin flats: https://www.neimanmarcus.com/Tory-Burch-Viv-Lizard-Print-d-Orsay-Flat-Natural/prod165250088/p.prod?ecid=NMCIGoogleProductAds&ci_sku=prod165250088skuNATURAL&ci_gpa=pla.
I think I’d just convinced myself I don’t need then and then this post re-opened my inner argument.
Those are really cute, but I tried them on at the friends and family sale the other day and was shocked by how uncomfortable they were. The vamp manages to cut across my foot at the worst possible point, and there is negatory arch support (this may have to do with it being d’orsay style…)
My wallet thanks you! 🙂 I usually don’t mind d’orsay styles comfort wise but I’m certainly not havig an uncomfortable flat!
Steve Madden also has a great pair of snake skin flats for only $39! https://www.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=435428072&pid=uid3481-23865059-61
