Can’t figure out why a certain outfit doesn’t work for you or are you just stumped on what is flattering on you? Then this is the thread for you and you can ask your questions here.

Please do refrain from talking negatively about your own body, we understand that you are likely frustrated due to various reasons (we’ve all been there) but out of respect for others and their struggles, keeping it positive helps everyone.

I feel like I never have an actual process for this, I just default to whatever's clean and doesn't feel wrong together. Then I see people whose outfits look clearly planned and intentional even when the pieces are simple, and I can't figure out what I'm missing.

Do you plan the night before, keep some kind of mental (or actual) list of combos that already work, or is it more improvised in the morning? Do you start from the weather, the occasion, or just whatever piece you're excited to wear that day?

Trying to get less random about it without turning it into a whole production every morning. Curious what actually works for people versus what just sounds good in theory.

Hi all! Unfortunately I am on mobile so I apologize if the formatting is wonky. I've been having shoulder/back problems so having a purse or cross body bag that only puts weight on one side of my body causes a lot of pain. I've been looking for a backpack that can basically replace my purse, but I've found that they are either super cute with the skinny/braided straps, neon outdoor packs, or they give off sterile tech bro or grade school vibes. Do you guys have any suggestions of cute but supportive bags? Here's a list of more specific things I've been trying to find:

-Spreads the weight across both shoulders and maybe also the back. Extra points for padded straps

-Big enough to hold a water bottle and some everyday carry items, but not too much larger

-Is mostly a neutral color

-Looks normal-ish for an adult to bring to a sit down restaurant

-Bonus if it doesn't cost more than $100 but at this point I will be taking any and all suggestions

Everywhere I look at standard retail, it's beige, stripes, all-black. You used to be able to go to standard American retailers (Gap, Old Navy, J Crew, TJ Maxx, mall brands, etc.) and find fun, colorful, patterned, sequined, embroidered, studded, beaded clothes. The neutrals were there if you wanted them, but it wasn't ALL neutrals.

I was looking at photos of myself in my 20s, and I miss that wardrobe and the options I had. There were patterned peasant tops, "going out" tops with sequins on the neck, fun-patterned summer dresses, even work/corporate tops with flowers or ruffles sewn in.

Where are you getting your non-boring clothes? Where do you go when you need to FEEL something?

It is soooo hot. And its going to get hotter in July. I always default to a tank top and shorts but how do the fashionistas deal with the summer heat? Im also a bigger girl but ive always been a sweaty girl even when i was younger. How do I keep a cute fashion sense in the heat? There's less layering options 😭😭 ive even looked into cottage core but it still looks hot. I just default to a granola girl outfit everytime. What's your secrets to being cute in the summer? Or are we all wearing something akin to athlesure except for things like a music festival or a pool party?

Let's start with the original iteration: if you are millennial and midlife, you were possibly rocking the extreme side part, feathered haircuts, black box dye, snake bites, studded white belts and skintight jeans way back in 2000, maybe even late 90s.

I was there. I was watching from dialup internet sites like makeoutclub and discussing on livejournal: blood brothers, atreyu, get up kids, plot to blow up the eiffel tower, saosin etc. There was a community to rate music tastes and of course hair. We wanted to be rad.

And now today's kids are doing it, and i'm happy about that, because now we Olds can dabble back in it. On instagram, you may search 'scene hair' and see that it is alive and well in the zeitgeist.

No longer are skinny jeans and side parts fashion anathema. They are on the horizon. Just call yourself an early adopter.

Edit: If anyone was interested, this google search includes videos made recently about the topic. Very often people on Youtube and Tiktok drive trends, so you can look at the dates and see when things get traction.

I’m 39, so l think l still gravitate towards creating a single silhouette “formula” in my mind- 2010s were very tight pant, long top for me. l’ve moved on to high waisted wide leg pant plus form-fitting or slightly cropped loose top. However l’m wondering if that’s going pretty stale now too. Any chance the new one is going to be midrise baggy and form fitting longer top?

What’s going to be on trend?
