I unpacked my winter dresses yesterday to discover nothing by grey, black and purple. Perhaps it’s time for a bit more color, and what better place to start than with emerald green?

For eight years, I have worn the same workout shorts. Every year, an influencer tries to sell me new shorts. I order them. I try them on. They pale in comparison to the shorts I already own. I return them.
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.
Oh. My. Gosh. I want all three of those. Majorly.

I’m wearing a hunter green sweaterdress today that I got last week, and now I feel all the more fashionable (not to mention warm and cozy). Great post!

I bought the Limited textured dress in black (I needed a new basic) and I LOVE it… just a warning that it is a bit short. Tights helped, but I will be stretching it after I wash it. Thanks for the great recommendation!!!
