Not a fan of this current trend toward shapelessness and oversized slouch in women’s clothing (or the other extreme of crop tops and low-rise pants like we’re back in the 2000s)—I’m in my early 40s and already struggling to find clothing that doesn’t make me look and feel like a middle-aged frump, I don’t need clothes that are specifically designed to look frumpy!

(This post brought to you by my futile attempt to find a linen dress for my upcoming trip that doesn’t look like a sack)
