[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also what “level” do you want to dress at?  For example my wardrobe is mostly athleisure (work from home) with a few dresses/formal pieces (church).  No in between.  Also my shape is busty so I do well at particular stores- I find the fit at Talbots is the best.  When I lost weight I bought a few cute things from TJ Maxx and then built out the rest slowly.[/quote]

OP, do not take fashion advice from someone who shops at Talbots and TJ Maxx. [/quote]

Scoffing at Talbots is a luxury for the small-busted.  It may not be super fashion forward, but guess what, after age 20 you need clothes that fit nicely to look good, and Talbots is a totally legitimate option if you have curves or an apple shape.  It is the only place I have consistently found clothes that look more expensive- because they fit beautifully without tailoring!

Same with TJ Maxx- if you’ve recently lost a lot of weight, your body is in transition.  You are figuring out what fits right and looks good and what you will actually wear consistently- you don’t want to make a big investment yet.  I’ve been in this situation- apple shape, weight loss and all.  Maybe you haven’t.  YMMV.

Also, there’s no way for me to prove this so it will sound defensive regardless, but I look damn good, especially in the DMV.  I have an hourglass figure that I worked for and I know what clothes work for me.  It doesn’t matter what store you shop at if you know what you are doing.[/quote]
