[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m 40 and have a ton of friends 35-40. Many shop at Madewell. I personally wear athleisure almost every day, which I don’t recommend as a style choice. [/quote]

NP- I am also 40 and I used to love Madewell but now, I think everything looks weird, which probably means I'm too old for it! I need another go-to also!  I can't wear such trendy stuff anymore without looking pathetic. [/quote]

I'm almost 50 and I usually love Madewell but the stuff they've been showing this season is making it much easier to break my Madewell addiction!

For OP - I mean, what do I know, I'm a generation older - but give a look at Madewell, J Crew, Evereve, & other stories, Jungmaven (I got that rec from DCUM and have become a huge fan of their t-shirts), Reformation (if you have that Hot Girl look - I do not so I don't shop there), Aritzia, Anthropologie (to me, Anthro is mostly overpriced with weird fabrics, but I know a lot of people love it and look great, so). Boden, if you're selective and don't get the frumpy stuff.

If you have more $$$ to spend try Veronica Beard (I don't have VB money, personally), Farm Rio, Vince, and those higher-priced brands. I sometimes get the nicer stuff on Poshmark and eBay - I also get a lot of Madewell on eBay.[/quote]

I'm 42 and love Veronica Beard, found a few pieces at second hand shops and from their website, they mark down by a LOT during sales. Their clothes are flattering.

I buy a lot of work clothes from Reformation. They look cool but somehow work in work/conference/presentation settings.

I have two excellent blazers  -- a structured woolen fitted Diane Von Furstenberg and a silky and flippy Reiss. both thrifted but in excellent condition. They make everything underneath look good.

Thrifted things came from either secondi or thredup (I always look for new with tags)

Also Off 5th (Saks 5th avenue sale/outlet site) has great markdowns on most of the above brands. Just got some last season VB and Farm Rio for about 70% off. I do prefer poshmark, secondi, real real but sometimes if I'm looking for something specific it's great to keep tabs on off 5th.[/quote]
