If you’re looking for an alternative to skinny jeans, try a slim bootcut. They balance out wider hips, lengthen the leg, and you can easily tuck them into tall boots.

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.
The tip about tucking them into boots was timely for me – thank you!
Glad it is straightforward because here I was trying to stuff them into my slouchy boots being thankful that they *are* slouchy so as to hide the awkward, bunched up denim within.
Call me crazy but I really just want that clutch!
