Favorite fall wardrobe staples….

[AnnieW625]

Pre Covid I got Stitch Fix boxes on a pretty regular basis and then I stopped last summer because I was not going into the office. A year later I am still not going into the office but my wardrobe needs a refresh. I love Stitch Fix’s independent shopping option, but now all of the items available to me seems to be the same type of item (short sleeve blouses, wrap dresses, work pants, simple ankle length jeans, drapey cardigans, etc….) and while I don’t hate the styles it is absolutely nothing new. I am debating about doing another fix box or just shopping elsewhere; but I am not sure I have the patience as I am a solid 14 (don’t need plus sizes though as they are always too boxy) and many stores here don’t stock sizes over a size 12 unless you are a true plus size (the bad thing about living in health conscious SoCal where the average size seems to cater to size 8 and lower). I would honestly much rather try on 20 items in a store than have to sort through them at home and return them. The nearest Nordstrom is also now 35 miles away as well.

I am still not working in the office but I feel like my wardrobe needs a bit of a refresh. I need new items for church, dinner/brunch, and just general SAHM fashions that I never really needed before because I worked in an office; but I would still prefer not to wear joggers or sweatpants and oversized sweatshirts to school or volunteer functions. Athleisure is my work wear now.

FWIW for the first time in probably 20 years I didn’t buy a single item from the Nordstrom Anniversary sale. I just wasn’t inspired by anything.
