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.
Never buy full price AT. That cardigan, and everything in the store, will be at least 40% by the end of August. I guarantee it!
Or full price Jcrew!
It’ll be 40% off by the end of the week. Every other day they have a new sale.
Sales are usually on the weekend or on Tuesdays.
this is my kind of post!
You and your cardigans…
Belle- about 4 years ago, I bought a cardigan at AT that’s almost identical to the one above. It’s navy, has a very narrow band at the waist (unlike above) dots are the same size, and their placement is slightly asymmetrical, which gives it a fun little flair. The fabric is fabulous. I love it, (if you can’t tell!) but I have a hard time styling it so as not too look too old/ boring. How would you wear it??? My office is somewhere between business casual and completely professional, the environment is creative.
Thanks, Amy
p.s.- maybe a better ? for an “Ask Belle”!
