What are you shopping for these days?

Are you investing in a comfy new wardrobe to stay safe at home longer? Or picking out a party dress for hitting the town as soon as things open up in your state?

I'm shopping for skincare items, makeup, and household stuff - like an air fryer. Really disappointed I didn't purchase that sooner.

Beauty items; new mascara, flat iron and makeup brush....If I'm looking good, I'm feeling good!

I bought clothes yesterday for the first time in months and it felt GREAT! I also bought items that I can wear around the house and feel comfortable and stylish.

I did a naughty thing and purchased shoes.....5 pairs. I usually am buying groceries and essentials. They were cute but I immediately felt guilty after I bought them

Don't feel guilty! You contributed to our declining economy. And that is needed right now.

Hi Carly, I haven't purchased any new clothing since Covid-19 and the need to self-isolate. Pre-Covid days, I loved scouring thrift stores and consignment shops for most of my work wardrobe. I do look forward to having a reason to get gussied up in my fancier clothing to go listen to an opera , or dinner out, or a live concert once we get back to our normal routines. My shopping these days is limited to the essentials: groceries and toiletries. There is something quite liberating about that, surprisingly!

I was let go at the end of February and have been working hard at finding a new position, helping someone publish a book on Amazon, and making masks and scrub hats for a cousin who works at a nursing home. Also making masks for elderly parents, son who works in a store, and attempting to keep both my elderly Mother and my daughter who has 3 young children at home. I am also teaching myself new skills to add to my resume. I am planning on shopping for a new interview outfit. I am a short, fluffy, middle-aged woman in the technology field. What would be a suitable outfit for someone like me going on a new Programming/Analyst interview?

Your height, body-type or age has nothing to do with a great outfit! I want you to know that now. Style has no age limit. The best option is to always pick something YOU feel confident in and you can look into the mirror and think "WOW, I feel amazing". I am a huge fan of vibrant pieces that stand out against something more simple. That would look like maybe a patterned blazer with solid pants. Or a statement necklace with a simple suit. Or if could be a beautiful pattern dress with a plain cardigan. I am all for increasing the chances of someone remembering me, not just by my resume and work, but also by my confidence. And nothing screams confidence than a wonderful outfit!
