Between COVID and pregnancies, my wardrobe hasn’t been updated in quite some time. Looking for some staple accessories (shoes, jewelry, bags) to elevate my appearance. Fashion/pop-culture isn’t a strength of mine and I have no idea what brands and styles are trendy. Appreciate any recommendations!

Consider checking out a personal shopper. I went to one at Nordstrom and enjoyed the experience and picked up some great pieces.

What I liked was the reduced amount of decisions. No real searching for outfits and sizes. The only question was, do I see myself wearing this again? If so, I bought it .

I’ve liked using stitch fix so that I don’t have to think about it. You can provide general direction for your stylist and have something ready for you without spending much time!

I’d check out Quince and Everlane! I’ve gotten a few pairs of shoes and jewelry from them I really love.

Stay away from trendy. Trends get old quickly and make you look irrelevant. Instead, invest in timeless, classy styles that will look good for years.

Watch some YouTube videos of women with similar undertones and body shapes to help you find styles and color palettes that will shine on you! This helped me immensely in revamping my own wardrobe.

I second the idea to try out a personal shopper. White House Black Market always brings additional items for you to try on when you get a fitting room. I've bought a couple things I otherwise wouldn't have if it weren't for them! And, even if you don't buy, taking the time to try things on in store will help you find what outfits make you feel comfortable and chic!

Welp! Finally got the axe today too. I didn’t even get to talk to my manager. One of the execs I support told me he’s very sorry and I was great, etc etc, but it couldn’t be avoided. Whatever. I kind of never want to work again. I’m heartbroken.

My natural instinct is to assume rejection if I have conflict with a partner or don’t think my feelings are reciprocated. I’ll try to bring it up with them, but I’ll say “if you want to end this feel free” so it doesn’t hurt me (and they can say what they really mean instead of sugarcoating). Someone told me today that they just assume I’m not interested because I always seem to “run” but I’m not sure how to bring up problems/feelings otherwise. How do you approach these hard questions?
