Those look like nice shirts. I like simple always in style because they look fairly classic to me. nice choice.
Don't spend much time in this forum, do ya? PinkJazz is well known for his obsessive love of polos, IZOD specifically, the color pink, and very specific color names.

I like to dress in a very simple way. Jeans and a shirt, I prefer button ups. Only issue is I got small arms, so ALL my button ups have to either be costly great quality ones that (still rarely but better than usual) fit better or just tailored. I have a particular pair of pants I favor though. Dark grey slacks that feel very comfortable and look very nice, less for me just roaming the city in.

Then I have my favorite 'lazy day running errands' outfit: Grey sweatpants, a darkish blue/grey long sleeve sleeping/casual shirt, and some shoes. It's decent enough to wear for a day of running errands where it looks presentable enough but it's main usage is ultimate comfort. It's INSANELY comfortable to wear. If I ever get hot, I roll them sleeves up and call it a day.

Black spandex Capri leggings. Would be housebound (or naked) if I couldn't wear them!

Pink is always good. I only saw one Green Pelican silhouette on a pink T. Not really a print. Nice shirts

NO I am sorry I have not been here much. I lost 90+ pounds and have held it off for a little over 1 1/2 years. It is time to totally re-do my wardrobe. At first I was looking forward to it. Then reality hit and I am like a deer in the headlights. I have conditions. I do not have a lot of $$$ . I have always shopped the thrift stores and just bought whatever fit especially over the 1 1/2 years I was losing the weight. NOW I am tired of that. I want clothes that make me feel good. Add in I am mostly a hermit and retired. I love to work around my house and yard so my clothes need to feel comfortable. I am trying to keep the new clothes for days I am not rolling in the dirt or painting some thing like the whole outside of the house this summer. Then I only like some colors pinks purples some greens black. No brown or red yellow for me. I have sliver hair. I am 68. I tend to dress leaning towards BOHO .It is the old hippie chick in me that will not die. LOL I am not trendy.

Shopping around here really sucks. I have walmart and a few other stores I can not really afford. One is called Rue 21 maybe. Forget the names of the others. I went in to them once with a friend and found nothing I could buy. So now when I find some thing that fits I buy multipal of the same in different colors. I like Faded Glory and White Stag. Everything has to be tried on as I have gone from a woman's 22 to a junior 11 or ladies 8 in jeans. Ladies 8 gets baggy in the legs and butt for me. XX to a Medium T. and the sizes do not always run true to what the label says. I also have about a 6 hour shopping window because I leave my dogs in the house when I go for their safety and comfort and a trip to walmart is 90 miles round trip. Any name brand stores are 160 miles round trip. Partly why I hate to shop. I also need to get all my other grocery shopping done in the same trip. I am totally wipped out when I get home some times for the following day.

White jeans. All year long. Free People t-shirts, and either Manolos or sneakers.

ShadesOfIdaho, take a trip to the closest big city, go to a mall and start trying EVERYTHING on. Make notes of brands you like and sizes you like. Take a day to do this. Buy a few things but don't buy everything. I know it is painful to shop but bite the bullet.

Come home, get comfy, and start shopping online.

I found my fave Top Shop White Jaime Moto jeans at Nordstrom and now I buy them compulsively on ebay. They are $80 at Nordstrom and $20 on ebay (yes, I've bought a few pair at Nordstrom).

Make shopping fun again!
