Ann Taylor and J. Crew. It pains me that I've officially become my mother, but . . . everything else is either wildly expensive, cheap make, or too revealing.

Abercrombie is shockingly good for trousers. Ann Taylor does some great sales throughout the year. I’ve had good success at TJ Maxx, Marshall’s, and Nordstrom Rack for blouses/tops/dresses.

I WFH now but used to get most of my dresses from Nordstrom Rack.

Loft, Ann Taylor, J Crew, Banana Republic, and Nordstrom Rack. I usually do one month of Nuuly or Rent the Runway for conferences so I have something fresh to wear that gives me confidence.

Question for funds folks, since no one is around to answer any questions and I can't seem to find this answer anywhere. Why can't a placement agent combine or integrate the offering of interests in the sponsor's fund with the contemporaneous offering of interests in another fund? Is it based on reputational risk or from a sales perspective in case someone rejects both funds, any other issues? Thanks!
