Sure - I looked some of these.
Some are too $$$ (eg Faherty nice but too expensive for how casual it is, Halsbrook, Sezane, MaxMara, etc)
Some are too plastic-y (eg Athleta)
Some are too young for my taste (Aerie...)
I don't usually follow trends, I just buy what I like and that way I usually keep liking it for years.
I find it hard or maybe I don't have the patience to shop for clothes online - it all looks good on the screen. So much of clothes is how the fabric feels and how it looks on and the color (all hard to judge online) and I'm not into back and forth buy/return. I have no time or patience for all that. Lol.
I like in general what I saw online at Pact, Tuckernuck, Marine Layer, Evereve.
I also generally like White House Black Market, Talbots, South Moon Under, department stores
Will check out Apricot Lane, Evereve, Everlane. Excited to try some new places!
Quince sells a few pieces from FAHERTY on their site. I was annoyed when I saw it bc I paid double for it

Still not feeling it at Anthro but I like their jewelry and housewares.

Old navy is lthe plastic bags of clothing. You wear it once and have to toss it. It’s like paper thin and can’t be washed.
Target is completely overpriced for what it is. Everything costs $30 and Id rather spend $50 at Nordstrom/Anthro.
Anthro and Nordstrom are humongous and it takes a lot of digging to find what fits me at a fairly reasonable price. But I keep what I find that I like — usually for several years.
Talbots and Ann Taylor for work pants and sometimes a plain white knit top or something I need to replace often. Both are pretty ugh, and their non sale stuff is just a rip off.
I like Title 9 and Marine Layer as well.
Tuckernuck sometimes, although it also takes a lot trying on and I end up returning a lot. Which is fine. A lot of brand overlap with Nordstrom, so frequently I’ll buy from Nordstrom since they are so good about price matching.
I’ll add bloomies but honestly so much overlap with Nordstrom that i just get tired and land at Nordstroms.
It’s basically hard to get me out of Nordstroms.

Ann Taylor for basic tops, maybe pants (a little too boxy)

But is not actually a place where stylish 30 year old women shop.
Anthro loves barrel jeans.
I asked my teenager and her friends: is Anthro a teenage store or an old lady store. They said it depends on what you’re looking at because it can be both.

Lafayette 148 for business (with a few casual pieces, like jeans and nice sweaters).
Neither are cheap. But nice fabrics. Classic styles.
