Dressing Young 2025

One of the best tee shirts I owned back in the day was a three dots that somehow my mom bought me. Wore it to death.

My current tee is a Kirkland brand from Costco. Heavy cotton, relaxed crew neck, short - not cap - sleeves, and long enough to tuck in (which for a woman with a long torso is not an easy find). I bought several last spring/summer, but I haven’t seen them yet this year. :disappointed_face:

Sadly, inventory at Costco varies wildly, year to year.

Quince has a one day sale.

I’m still looking for the perfect black pants. Quince has a pair that looks good. The back view on the model did not look great.

Can anyone tell me how they work in returns?

These are the pants

I just ordered these yesterday

They had one pair in black which I ordered.

So far the closest I found was a pair of Eileen Fischer straight leg in crepe but they were very expensive for me and a little too short for what I’m looking for. The Quince pants are the closest to what I’ve been looking for. The only thing is that I wish is that there were more details on the leg opening

Athletica has Boston pants which are popular. On line, one can order in petite. I haven’t tried them yet.

Me too! I wore it to its death. It was the right weight, it hung perfectly, and it was sooo soft.

Just found out that Three Dots was acquired by someone and is still making tees. Macy’s sells them. Going to order one V-neck to check the quality.

Also, RL used to make quality cotton tees with just the right amount of Lycra.

@BunsenBurner, They have changed. Doesn’t mean it won’t be a good option, but it’s not the same.

I’m sure with the new ownership there will be a change. I’m curious about how much the quality changed. Will report back!

At the end of December I ordered 7 items from Quince. Most were 2 of the same item in different sizes. I’m sort of in between sizes so order the smaller and larger size.

I returned 5 of them without any problem at all.

PS Thanks for the reminder about the sale. I’m heading to the sight now.

Athleta has a 30% off everything sale on right now for friends and family. They did have black pant options for those who are looking.

I was just in Naples and found these jeans in boutiques. Nit in my size so I ordered them on line. One black, one blue. They are full length, not cropped. The black came in and I have to exchange sizes. Blue not in yet.

I loved the blue in the store, so light and airy. Black ones were so-so. Not sure if they look like a spiderweb or cool.

I happened to see that sale yesterday so I decided to order another cashmere boatneck sweater (got my first one recently). I’ve been very happy with the quality and the light weight feel. So far I haven’t had to return anything to them but it sounds easy enough.

Anyone else buy from Quince during that very short sale?? One day, I missed out.

@conmama I am convinced that you are living my dream life where I get to wear pretty and dressy clothes.

Unfortunately, dressy these days for me, I put on my jeans instead of my dressy sweatpants.

I ended up not ordering anything from Quince yesterday. Decided to wait on the pants I ordered from Nordstrom and :crossed_fingers:that I’m done.

Did order a pair of black pants from Talbots, they were so tight in the waist but fit in the hips. Very disappointing. The white jeans fit perfectly though so it wasn’t a complete loss. Why they insist on white pockets instead of nude is beyond me. I am keeping them because I don’t want to keep looking.

I recently bought these shorts from Chico’s and really love them.

They also come in blue denim which I bought too!

Very cool. I love the blue denim ones! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: It would be helpful to see a RL pic instead of the glamour-ed manufacturer’s pic to provide opinions on how that black one looks like.

Ok, when the new ones come in, I’ll model. They looked pretty decent on, just ran too tight in the belly. I love the blue the best. They are very pretty IRL, prettier than the pics.

Love them! Wound you mind sharing the brand?

Bayeas. They come in White, too. But the detail on the blue really stands out. You can find them several places, or Bayeas.com.
