Like the title says - what are your best hot weather shoes to wear going out? Open toe kitten heels or sandals don’t really work because it’s gross having your feet so exposed especially if you’re in a city or taking public transit BUT I feel like the only alternative is to wear sneakers. What is the heeled/chunky booties equivalent for summer!! This is a dilemma that I have every single time the weather gets warm

I genuinely think the fashion industry does not understand modest girls at ALL.

Because why is every outfit either:

1. extremely revealing
   or
2. giving “pilgrim core”

There is no in-between

Like I don’t want:

* my chest out
* my back out
* a thigh slit to heaven
* see-through fabric
* micro shorts pretending to be skirts

BUT I also don’t wanna look like I’m attending a royal funeral in 1813.

Why is that so hard to understand??

And the CRAZIEST part is when people say:
“Just layer it.”

Girl.
WHY am I layering a sweater under a dress in JULY because brands are allergic to sleeves???

Why are basic tops suddenly cropped.
Why are blazers cropped.
Why are hoodies cropped.
WHY ARE TANK TOPS CROPPED 😭😭😭

At this point they’ll release cropped socks.

And don’t even get me started on online shopping.
You finally find something cute and then the model turns around and BOOM:
entire back missing.

I swear modest girls spend half their lives trying to “fix” outfits instead of just wearing them.

The demand for stylish modest everyday clothes is HUGE but brands still treat modest fashion like it only exists for special occasions or ultra-conservative aesthetics.

Some of us literally just want Pinterest outfits without having to perform textile engineering first.

This thread is for individual style questions that you may have, especially those that don't warrant their own thread. We all want a diversified opinion, so feel free to answer any questions (of which you know the answer).

To get the best responses, remember that people cannot: look into your wardrobe, know what style you normally like or what words like affordable or practical mean to you so please include any relevant details such as your budget, where you live, what stores are available to you, etc.

Example questions:

• Are there any basic crewneck white t-shirts that are opaque and do not have cap sleeves for <$25 available in Australia?
• Is this dress and shoes suitable for an evening wedding with a cocktail dress code taking place in a [venue type]?
• If I like the outfits in this [imgur album / pinterest board], what are some specific items I can look into to start dressing like that, and brands with this look that carry plus sizes?
• Does this outfit look neater with the pants cuffed or uncuffed?

What is your favorite hoodie of all time? One that you find yourself reaching for despite other options? Why do you love it? For me, I have two Fila hoodies that I wish were still produced but I think they were discontinued. I bought them from Nordstrom Rack and they are sooo soft, thick, and nice shape without being baggy or too short (a common issue I find with women's hoodies). Does anyone else have a beloved hoodie they can't stop wearing?

Cow, deer, and Dalmatian seem to be going more mainstream, which has made me start wondering what other animals should designers and textile makers take inspiration from.

Even if it’s not an animal you can get a traditional pelt from. Like I think a lot of patterns you see on birds and marine life could be really interesting! And I’m specifically talking about **print and pattern**, not necessarily skin or fur.

okay so i've been wanting to get a peraonalised jewellery for a while now but everytime i search only etsy comes up and i've had bad experiences with them before. delayed shipping, quality nothing like the photos, customer service gone. not doing that again lol

i saw some brands like kendra scott and theo grace. kendra scott looks nice but my cousin says it's not worth the price. and theo grace has really solid trustpilot reviews and my friend has one, looks really nice on her. but i've never ordered from either myself so i'm not sure.

has anyone tried these or any other actual brand worth checking out? not looking for cheap just reliable and something that lasts

My neighborhood hosts an annual fundraiser for the community in the form of a Prom! This year the theme is BARBIE! So I wanted to ask - if you were going to Barbie Prom, what would you wear? Which Barbie would you be?

Posting here to get as many ideas and recommendations as possible!

now that everlane quality is inevitably going to take a nosedive, wondering what other clothings brands are stylistically similar/in roughly the same price strata?

edit: sorry, should have included the explainer that everlane was bought by Shein.

I ranch in rural Oregon and my days are a mix of chores and quick town runs (feed store, hardware, post office). Over time I realized I've basically built an accidental uniform: higher-rise straight jeans, a sturdy belt, a tucked tee, and a chore jacket or flannel. It works - it is comfortable, lets me bend and lift, and everything is very bra-friendly, which I need for support.

The unexpected downside is that when I have to switch into "human in public" mode, I don't feel like myself. Even when the clothes fit fine, I look and feel perpetually mid-task. If I try to add something more feminine, like a floatier top, a dress, or a neckline that needs a different bra, I end up annoyed within an hour because I'm fussing with layers, worrying about straps, or imagining wardrobe malfunctions while loading hay.

I'm not asking for a list of personalized outfits. I'm wondering if anyone else hit this wall where a practical uniform started to erase their style. If you managed to get out of it, what was the smallest change that made you feel more put together without losing function? I'm thinking about changing silhouettes (but staying bra-friendly), picking a more intentional color palette, or upgrading one key piece like a better jacket so I still feel like me instead of just dressed for work.

Would love to hear what actually worked for others who spend their days in messy or physical routines. TIA.
