[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find it has more to do with the age of your kids than your own age. I'm 35 and still dressing via Target and Goodwill, but I have toddlers at home and my clothes get worn hard and washed with little care. As soon as everyone is in school all day, my plan is to upgrade my knits, diversify out of jeans, wear more heels, and work more whites into my wardrobe.[/quote] Age of kids is a huge factor. Until about Kindergarten, being around kids is just hazardous to your clothing! I am 41 and WOH in a business casual setting. My weekend wardrobe isn't much different from my weekdays. And 99% of my shopping is done online, so not a whole lot of originality in the brands. When shopping online it really helps to stick with brands that you know fit and flatter your shape. What works for me: Gap for jeans, some sweaters and tops. Their tees (Favorite line?) are just thick enough and fit me well. Old Navy for some pants and tops. Halogen (Nordstrom) for cashmere sweaters and pencil skirts. Rarely J Crew (sizing and quality are too unpredictable). Boden for dresses, white jeans, some tops and sweaters, the occasional skirt. Lands End for some pants, tops, dresses. Shoes from Nordstrom and Zappos. Dresses by Lauren Ralph Lauren from various department stores.[/quote]
