i can see you like floral prints alot, pinks, chambray/denim, blacks. i also like a strong pop against black.
But I'm getting a lot better, proud to say!
But I will surely think it through, you are right - I don't want to get tired of it! (Though I do wear the hot pink clutch I have a lot!)
Everyone needs a nice black bag (and a brown one, and a grey one... 
)ah, a simple question ...
there are several aspects to quality ... fabric, construction, cut, and then the ones specific to you--flattering fit and appropriateness to your personal style. with fabric, first you have to think about how you're going to care for it. i take most things i wear out of the house to a dry cleaner who doesn't use perc (nasty old school chemical). i like linen, cotton (organic if possible), silk, rayon, bamboo, lyocell, the various wools, and a little spandex never goes amiss. it's best to think about wrinkling upfront ... don't be afraid to grab a handful & squeeze (though maybe not under the direct gaze of the sa 
). i like to wear a lot of knits for this reason & also i'm curvy. you also want to think about how it will wear. anything showing wear at the store is obviously not what you want. wools are some of the best fabrics for wearing well, like gabardine, crepe, or knit. silk can wear poorly in a skirt, and you want to look closely at linings. you can have them replaced, but that is you spending $$ to make up for the manufacturer cutting costs at your expense. construction ... in general, raw edges may not be the best idea, though i do have a couple in my wardrobe. turn a bunch of things at various price points inside out, & you will begin to see what is a good seam & what's not. reinforcements at stress points (like you see on jeans) are a very good idea. cut ... some of this is personal. the garment should fall well when you put it on. a good tailor can help. it was really helpful to me to have a job in a menswear store in college where i learned what good tailors can do. once at barney's i got the tailor out to improve the fit of the pants i was buying & afterwards the sa--who had told me not to worry about it--said he didn't know the tailor could do that. not sure where you are in the arc of your career, but if you get a chance to do that part-or full-time for awhile, it's a great learning experience. does this answer your question?Hmm, I might try that but I think it's more serious than that. They have some serious scratches
but thank you anyway I know what you mean, some wrap dresses just feel fit for an older audience... mostly when they have a pattern, I think. But yes, they're very flattering. I can't wear anything too tight because I have weird idented hips, and I find wrap dresses do work! I'm not sure what kind of dress I want, the red dress and the wrap dress I want might end up being a single dress
), my black skirt REALLY needs replacing. I have a black skater skirt but it's very flimsy and not structured at all. Do any of you know of any nicely structured skirts in black? The length should be somewhere between mini and midi. It can have regular pleats, box pleats... Even a skater skirt would be okay, but it has to be thicker. Please help, because I've looked through numerous sites and stores and really can't find anything.
