I need skinny dress pants for my boots days. I had some from Van Heusen that fit well but fell apart. Old Navy pixie pants seem to be crap lately. I know the brand isn’t trendy nor is the store but I have a couple of skinny dress pants from Macy’s By Charter Club. I get the Cambridge skinny pants and they are perfect and not too expensive.

I went ahead and bought the Patagonia parka I was looking at. I got the black and paid full price because I think that in years to come I will be happy I did. I tried them on at REI yesterday and I was HOT, so I am sure it will keep me nice and warm!

I'll check these out! Our Macy's closed a few months ago. I rarely shopped there, but I'm missing it now when I need work clothes.

My Abercrombie jeans came today and I put a pair on to go to dinner. My H goes “nice mom jeans.” This was not a compliment 🙄 and they are literally called mom jeans. So now I’m questioning my fashion choices.

Are your on Tiktok? I follow @modishchampagne, and she has a bunch of boot recommendations and updates to traditional boot styles. That’s where I got my idea to buy more boots. Is she saying fancy cowboy boots will takeover this fall? Shant

Thanks guys. I was starting to wonder if I looked like my actual mom in the early 90s.

I think you look great @motherifdaschunds. I had the same fear with mine but there is definitely a different fit at the top than what my mom wore. Hers almost ballooned out on top and some were pleated whereas the ones in style now and a nice flat front.

I’m realizing I need more fall weekend outfits. Like casual enough to walk to the playground/run errands/wrangle kids, but not straight up loungewear. I purged a ton of stuff last year and never replaced.

I would love to find a black blazer with some stretch to it. And maybe a dark green one too. I love the drape collar Caslon blazers from Nordstrom a lot

I asked a few mom friends about date night shirt suggestions and the ones they sent me were like hideous. I don't know if it's because we are 36 and moms but boxy work-appropriate blouses is not what I'm going for. So I asked my child free friend for recs and she told me about Lulu's. I just ordered 4 hot bodysuits to try on.

Athleta sale ends today. I really love everything I get from there. I would like a new pair of solid black leggings. Maybe with a little compression to hold me in. I have the elation and they are my fav, so soft and cozy. Does anyone have a rec for Athleta leggings that might hold me in a bit? Basically I just feel like buying some things while they have their F&F sale

Speaking of Athleta, what leggings do people like for working out (running and OTF)?

I bought these pants from Target after seeing them on a midsize influencer I follow. Love them. So comfy but still work-appropriate.

I just ordered two pairs of the Brooklyn ankle pants from Athleta, so fingers crossed they fit well. And the ones gingy just posted. My pants situation is dire.

I'm thinking about these pants from American Giant. I have an older version of what they're calling No BS pants now, that are black ponte stretch pants and look nice. These that are linked are that but stitched to look more like dress pants. But I don't have to go back to the office until January so maybe I should see how the holidays go. :-)

I bought a jean jacket yesterday and I’m wondering if it’s 1985.
