For me, shopping now only consists of two questions , "Is this work appropriate?" and "Will I care if this gets ruined by grease and salsa stains?" It makes for a pretty bland wardrobe, but it's nice when I find things that easily integrate into my daily style and work style. These ankle length (regular length on me) pants are from TJ Maxx and it seems like there's always a constant rotation of different styles and colors instore. I wish they were more tapered in the knee area, but for $25 bucks, I'll take it. If you need affordable work clothing and live near a TJ's, check it regularly! I've been noticing a lot of brands like James Perse, Lucky Brand, Cloth & Stone, etc recently too!
I also just found out that Uniqlo and Zara are both opening at Valleyfair in my hometown, San Jose, CA! Uniqlo currently has a promising cashmere collection in 20+ colors and a couple different cuts (found here: x). I unknowingly annihilated my only cashmere sweater this past week when it went into the wash!! I rarely shop online so I'm really excited to be able to see and try on things instore instead of ordering from their webstores with hopes of the items fitting correctly. Zara does offer free returns, but if you're anything like me...
