What are good, not exorbitantly priced places to buy clothing? Zara? Haven’t invested in my wardrobe for some time and I’m old enough that I need to branch beyond H&M now

Yes!! Build up basics and stuff that will last.

Honestly, fast fashion is death and you can get really cool shot at second hand shops that’s made better and a lot more unique. It can be a good self-love to browse through a ton of different stuff

Zara is good, but also try Nordstrom Rack and if you hunt around frequently, Nordstrom. I also like Loft and they have frequent sales, and Express has some good professional basics. Also, stop in any local boutiques you pass by - I've found lots of great, unique pieces in boutiques. But building up a wardrobe takes a long time, so go on with that mindset. Don't expect to have everything you want/need in 1 week

like

Go high and low. Mixing is great. Hit sales - just wait for after the intros of the season - a month later it’s all less. Create your own style. Don’t dress just one brand. Sneakers work with skirts and everything. Also get one great pair of boots. With a 2 -3 inch heel. Just for when you want to feel polished. Or dress up jeans.

like

I've actually had good success with Stitch Fix. If you're willing to spend $, they'll send you high quality items. It's a super easy process.

like

Everlane for basics, RTR subscription if you like to dress up, and Poshmark/Tradesy if you know what you want and are cool with second hand.

Working on a campaign and I wrote the first version of the script that was chosen. My CW partner crafted it and then I made revisions. It’s been a super collaborative process and so rewarding. We’re both so proud of this piece. It’s manifesto-y and the writing is what makes it sing, so it hurts a little (or a lot) when my partner gets tons of praise from like, THE TOP, for the writing and doesn’t acknowledge me. Do ADs ever get co-writing credits? Do I just need to get over my ego? *big exhale*
