Favorite clothes
What are some of your favorite pieces of clothing, where did you get it and how much was it (if you remember?)
Me: my black Ralph Lauren dress from Kohls. I almost didn't buy it bc it was $80 before my 30% off coupon. I swear I wear it once a week at least. It's perfect for work and it covers me up on days when I feel puffy since it's kind of ruched in the midsection.
Also, a brown thin sweater twinset that I got at WALMART back in like 2004 when I first started working. No pilling, stretching, nothing. It has totally kept up after all these years. And it was a total of like $23 for both, if I remember correctly.
You?
Re: Favorite clothes
my first pair of seven jeans that i bought back in 2002 - they're faded, stretchy, and fit perfectly. i also have an old pair of paige premiums that are honestly the best pair of jeans i've ever bought. i love them.
i'm wearing a top from forever 21 today that i really like, and it was $9.50. it's one of the few non-hoochie tops they carry this season.
capri flip flops from jcrew - I have several pair and wear them year round
white dress with embroidery from cheapie store. Cute, flattering, and I think it was around $20.
Right now I could live in a $14 summer skirt (circle, knee length with a fold down/yoga pants-esque panel) I bought at Target three or four years ago. It fits me better than any maternity pieces I've found thus far and it's washed and held up well all of these years.
Socializing foster puppies since 2009

5dogs - I think I saw something similar to those skirts at target this morning.
I love my seven jeans and my j.crew tanks with built in shelf-bra. not having to wear a bra in this heat is fantastic.
My favorite skirt is a huge orange flowered poofy one that I bought at Anthropologie while shopping with Wan, jonesy, Trish, and R. It was $39.95 (down from $78). I wear it all the time.
Winnie it's ok. I have zero style too. Hello Walmart twinset? Black dress? But they fit good and keep well.
I should get some color into my wardrobe. That's what mboc is for. I actually bought a dark teal sweater last weekend.
I love all my AE jeans. I've had pairs for over 5 years, and they always hold up well.
I have a basic black wooldress from Banana Republic I love to wear in the winter.
Other than that, the only other things I truly love are my small collection of BCBG Max Azria dresses. I have no other designer names for my shoes, clothes, purses, etc, but I just adore BCBG dresses.
