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 am in love with the styling of that first dress. As we move into fall/winter, I’d love to see a post with ideas for the combination of taller boots and midi-length dresses & skirts.
FYI: The dress you posted for the “Front Desk” price looks like it might be one of those terrible Chinese knock-offs. I did a quick bit of googling and can’t find any websites for them and most of the reviews speak of pretty significant quality issues. The translations for sizing is also bizarre. I would probably caution anyone from ordering the dress.
I changed it to a J.Crew option that is on sale now.
Thank you!
Well, I kinda hate you for posting that first one. But only because now it’s been added to the list of things I love that are out of my price range.
I bought this dress in two colors, and it’s shocking the number of compliments I’ve gotten. It’s only $20 and really beautiful:

The quality is not great, but fine. It will definitely last through the winter.
I have this one too! Love it!

That first dress is just gorgeous.
