I might get some flack for this, but I love Shein. I am a taller woman and they have a Tall Store for business clothes and I was able to get 6 pants that fit me so good..

I have bought most of my work clothes from Express and the Banana Republic Factory Outlet. I have found that Express always has really good sales and their clothes last for years. I have pieces that I wore right out of college that I still wear nearly a decade later. The quality is great.

I like Nordstroms and Von Maur, though it can be hit or miss depending on location as each store has its own buyers. Talbots sales racks are usually good if you keep track of their seasonal clearance sales. Used to love Lane Bryant for pants (plus size on bottom), but their quality, especially in fabric, has taken a nose dive, their sizing has become inconsistent, and their prices are ridiculously high for the quality.

Bain & Company Is it truly easier to get in a smaller MBB office?

Have heard a lot for different opinions on these. The logic is that it’s easier because there is a lot of supply in cities like NY, Chicago and SF, but the counter argument is that the offices with less supply are also way smaller and have a lot less demand.
