Shein sports shops bershka pull and bear… You need to shop around here and there to get a good look. You’ll find something I dress like a tired mom also

I’m about comfort. I honestly don’t keep up with what’s in style or others are wearing. Same with shoes. I’m on my feet, so I’m about comfort not style. Everyone wearing Nike shoes, and for me Nike do not work with my feet.
I have to dress up for work so as soon as I’m home, I’m in comfy clothes, joggers, leggings etc and that’s my look,… comfort not looks, Running & picking up kids, groceries, cooking, sporting events. I’m comfortable and that’s what makes me in a good mood :laughing:
I do have some jeans for if and when we go out to eat but we rarely go.

Please beware of SHEIN and TEMU. They may be employing children in sweatshops and harvesting your information.

When I was working, Marshall’s, TJ Maxx and Burlington Coat Factory were go-tos for more polished ensembles. For sturdy basics that are timeless and wear like iron, Land’s End (also great for modest bathing suits that lift your boobs & smooth out the bottom half of mom bods) and L.L. Bean.

Do the earth a favor and shop thrift stores. If you’re in Misses sizes—especially size 12 and under—you can often find excellent condition fancy clothes someone rich has outgrown or gotten tired of them. There are even secondhand stores that specialize in designer clothes and accessories.

I look at value per wearing. An evening gown I’m going to borrow or thrift because I’ll only wear it a very few times. I’ll spend more for good new leather shoes/boots/sandals because your feet are so important. A nice suit, versatile dress, black pants or white shirt that you might wear often for years is worth an investment. I figure cost per wearing. Take the price and divide it by how often you expect to wear it before it wears out.

Also factor in how hard you wear things. I am hard on undergarments, socks, shoes, sweaters and pajamas, so it’s worth it to me to pay for better quality. Oddly I’m not that hard on pants and blouses, so I can get away with cheaper quality/price.

I swear the older I get the more my clothes get like pajamas and nightgowns and the flatter my shoes are. Pull on pants & shorts, leggings & big Ts, T-shirt & pull-on dresses and lots of stretchiness fill my closets and shelves.

If you get solid color basics you can mix and match you can jazz them up with elegant accessories, fancy patterned tights, jewelry, scarves, boleros and jackets, belts, funky shoes and hats.
