Dressing Young (Part 1)

^^ I like them both. They are a different feel. The Allbirds do have more cushioning but also have a more casual look. I wouldn’t wear them to work except on jeans day, but the Rothy’s go every day! I wear the Allbirds flats through airports.

@deb922 I like that jean jacket - just wish it was in a little darker wash!

God save the Queen… the minis are back!

Time to stockpile maxi everything. Tea lengths and maxis will be back in style as soon as the Dow plunges. :wink:

I think the minis will be adorable with leggings or tights. :slight_smile:

Just ordered this with the intent of bringing it on an upcoming Hawaii vacation. When I tried it on I didn’t want to ever take it off. SO comfy. The material is like silk. It’s flattering. I got the black/white version and hubby commented it wasn’t colorful enough. Well, since I’m a loving and caring wife I told him I’d just have to get another one in a bright color :wink: They come in three different lengths - for those changes in the economy.

I’ve tried it with leggings and some nice shoes - will work great for places other than the beach.

Perfect! :slight_smile:

I bought a rip skirt for a recent trip to Hawaii—only wore it at the beach, but I loved it!!

Hope you have an amazing time in our state! Costco sold some wrap around skirts similar to those awhile back. I bought one that was a larger size than I wear, so just added another two buttons and voila an adjustable skirt!

That’s a really cute skirt, you’ll wear them the whole time you’re there!!

They would be nice for Europe, too, if you need to cover your knees to go into churches. Stylish and modest!

I like Costco’s skorts a lot.

Ordered a few skorts from Zappos. I’m keeping this one. I like this style for travel. It works on the trail, on the sailboat and also out sightseeing.
I also ordered two others. https://www.zappos.com/p/smartwool-electra-lake-sport-skirt-black/product/8809621/color/3 I like that this one is narrow through the hips but it’s a tad short. I think it would work on the trail but might be too short for in town.
I also got this one. I’m trying to decide if I’ll keep it. I got it in black but might return or exchange for the gray. https://www.zappos.com/p/toad-co-sunkissed-skort/product/8984380
I love that Zappos ships in just one day. Almost instant gratification.

The clothes (skorts) at Title Nine look nice.

I have a collection of skorts from Athleta. From basic black to a white with floral print. I’ll be wearing a white one to work tomorrow with a sleeveless top and a light summer cardigan.

I wish I had an Athleta nearby. Closest is about a two hour drive away. @abasket have you tried any of their pants? I’m not talking athletic pants ( I have several workout pants from Athleta) but pants that one could wear to casual work place or for travel.

I’m not @abasket but I have a few pairs of pants from Athleta, not leggings.

They are amazingly comfortable and flattering. I think I have a winter pair of black pants that are great and a summer weight paper bag waist pant. I like that they come in petite sizes

@mom60 and @deb922 just for kicks… :slight_smile:

No, no other Athleta pants besides leggings/tights - several of those! I’m not a pants person overall - literally only have a couple pair of pants. I did try on a pair of their jeans this spring and they felt great but I really needed a size that they didn’t have so I didn’t purchase them.

Maybe @FallGirl knows…I know she is an Athleta fan as well.

These are the Athleta winter pants I have https://athleta.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=353474022&cid=1098758&pcid=50000&grid=pds_115_194_1#pdp-page-content

And the summer ones https://athleta.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=292915072&cid=1105218&pcid=1059471&grid=pds_18_139_1#pdp-page-content

I also have a pair of the jeans lol, I like the jeans, in fact I wore them tonight. I don’t love them. They are great to do things in, tonight it was cool and I played golf in them. They are extremely comfortable, they are great for something like traveling in the car all day. They are a little too stretchy and I have to wear a belt, which is fine. If I was dressing up I would wear a different pair of jeans but to move around in, they are the first pair I reach for.

Hope that is helpful

^^^ those first ones are fun looking! I would give them a try at that price except they are only available in a 16! The second ones are cute too but not a style I would/could wear.

My D has worn the Athleta pant linked below and loved it. I just bought a pair for myself but haven’t worn them yet - picked up a very similar pant at Costco today and trying to decide if I’ll keep the more expensive Athleta pair.

I agree with @Midwest67 - I like the clothing from Title Nine. My only issue is that so much of their merchandise is in BRIGHT colors. My issue with Athleta is so that so much of their merchandise is in drab/muted/kind of boring colors.
