I had fun thinking about this list! Of course, these are staple things that I really have purchased in the last 5 years. With weight fluctuation due to sickness (and the drugs that went along with that), I’ve had to kind of reinvent my wardrobe anyhow. I feel quite comfortable now with my style actually. At least my every-day style.

1. Nice pair of dark (slightly stretch) jeans. I do love my darker ones that I just got (mine are Lane Bryant just like Brandy’s), they can be dressed up with a nice shirt or down with a t-shirt
2. Overall shorts. I enjoy wearing them in the summer even when I’m feeling tired and sore because they are loose. I like Old Navy’s the best. Khaki or Jean.
3. Light button up sweater. It can either be worn with the sleeves up slightly during a spring/early summer day, or normal for a cooler day. My current one is from AE on the clearance rack and is nice light yellow. Nice buttons are a must.
4. a button up stripey shirt with flattering seams. I have several right now that are classy when paired with my sweater or more casual alone.
5. Nice stretch t-shirt with a good neckline. Casual, but comfy. A little thicker than a standard t-shirt to make it last long and smooth out my figure is good - last time I found one I liked, I got 4 colors (red, black, white, and yellow - yellow is since been stained but is still wearable under overall shorts!).
6. Jean skirt with slight stretch. Worn with t-shirt, more casual, and worn with sweater and button up shirt, a bit nicer.

I guess I should also have included salt-water sandals, which would fit with most of those things too. And jammies are my *actual* every-day attire, so I’d have to fit something in for that as well. But the above are more the things I buy to wear out of the house.

Brandy mentioned an ankle-length skirt and that’d probably be a good thing, too. I do have a nice versatile one that I wear to Mary Kay meetings that I ended up pairing with a silky tank for E’s reunion, and it worked out really well!

That was fun
