Anyone shop with Quince?

I am constantly seeing Quince ads on my feeds and as I like to wear solid colors, it seems like the brand might work for me. However, I have had real hit and miss with internet retailers (looking at you Mooyius). Can anyone share their experiences, good or bad? Thanks!

Navigating a new dress code?

I’ve worked at the same Montessori school for 12 years and we’ve had the same dress code. It was business casual but comfortable (no jeans) since we’re on the ground with children all day.

The school was purchased by an education corporation and they came and changed the dress code to “elevated casual” with jeans being allowed as long as there is no distressing. The only direction we have received so far is no sweat pants, no hoodies or crew necks, no leggings and sneakers must be clean.

I have a fall/winter “uniform” in that I wear black dress pants and I switch up the t shirt and cardigan. I will very rarely wear a blouse. I want to start incorporating jeans into said “uniform” but I am unsure if a fitted t shirt/long sleeve is “elevated” enough for the dress code.

Can anyone help me figure this out?

I need guidance on daily attire

I am looking to get into my own style for the first time in my life. Growing up, I always wanted to dress like my brother. Then I got into sports and it became distinctly athletic wear. I am too far removed from being an athlete to continue dressing like a high school boy.

As we are getting into the fall season, I’d like to invest in my wardrobe and get some new things to better suit me. I like to wear mom type jeans, and I own many solid tees from old navy. What are some other options I should explore for pants? How can I elevate my look and potentially make more ‘feminine fashion choices’ in my daily attire? No more sweatpants!

Has anyone actually taken one of those "style archetype" quizzes? Did it change anything?

I keep coming across these style archetype quizzes and I'm curious how useful they actually are, especially for women over 45.

If you've taken one, what result did you get? Did it change anything about what you wear or even what you look for when shopping?

Or did it mostly just put a name to a style you already had?

For transparency, I'm gathering perspectives for a style research project, not promoting a quiz. Interested in hearing what worked and what didn't.

Preschool teacher fashion advice (cute and colorful, ethically sourced, and affordable??? does it exist?)

Hello hello! I am a preschool teacher, and I'm looking for ethically sourced (ideally a smallish business?) kinda funky but not ugly clothing? Haha, I don't know if this is attainable, but I always wanted to be a little bit like Ms Frizzle. I like bold colors, patterns, thematic things even because that would be a hit with the children (like fruit and veggie tops, space pants, animal sweaters etc. but not in an ugly way...). I really like Lucy and Yak! I might order a thing or two from them, but they're a little bit pricey (I understand why smaller businesses are going to be a little more expensive, but I'm hoping that somewhere out there is a slightly cheaper option to get clothing like this because well, I'm a preschool teacher. We are not famous for being paid very well). Any ideas? Or am I asking too much?

Clothing sizes

I'm trying to figure out why these clothing manufacturers do not make enough small and medium sizes. One of the things that turns me off from shopping for clothes in person is it's hard to find smalls and mediums still left on the racks, meanwhile the larges and extra larges are plentiful. Anyone else experience this???

Where to get petite mid-rise, straight-leg work pants?

Or just where to find decent quality NOT high rise NOT wide leg work pants?

I like to keep it business style. I’d rather err on the side of business professional than casual.

Recs for heels

Hi everyone,

After a painful night of wearing heels in Vegas, I'm looking for an upgrade to a more comfortable pair.

Recs for your favorite comfy heels?

I tried Naturalizer (Bristol) but the toe strap was uncomfortable for me.

Willing to spend $$$ for durability and comfort! Thanks!

Non-Makeup Fashion Advice

I don't wear makeup, never have and don't plan to. It takes time and energy that I just don't care to put towards it. But I personally feel like some fashion styles look best when the person is wearing makeup. For example; retro chic, goth, corporate, etc. I'm 38 and finally able to put some energy into finding my own personal style but I'm struggling to find style aspects that harmonize with a bare, mature face. Any ideas or advice is welcome!

Black or brown leather coat

I used to have a nice dark brown pleather jacket. I loved it. It no longer fits so it’s time for a new one. I’m thinking of investing in leather. For long term use and style, should I go w black or brown? I’d like something like a fitted motorcycle jacket but a bit longer. I wear it for a little warmth, mostly for style.

Does anyone else feel like the dye in clothes bleeds too much nowadays?

Never had an issue with bleeding dyes until like 5 years ago aside from maybe like a dark wash denim once in a while. Now it often feels like i can't trust anything. Especially black and red clothes. I wash everything in cold water so it's not from hot water. I have ruined so many clothes because of colors bleeding unexpectedly. Occasionally I've forgotten to check new items or i will have washed something many times before and thought it was safe from any dye bleeding. Nope ruined clothes. Didn't use to happen so it's really not ingrained in my routine. Also I'm tired of washing everything separately. I can't even put dark red and bright red together because the dark red will stain the bright red. It's not the kind of dye issue where it just leaves a slight color cast on everything but big blotchy stains.
