Sarah N. asked:

To distract me from the mundane aspects of MFC studying, I'm starting to think about my sartorial presence (ie, clothing). To that end, I am seeking advice for shops...

Sarah E. replied:

Talbots rocks my socks off. J. Crew has great sales and offers student discounts, but they're crappy for the busty ladies -- though their sweaters and layering pieces are still great. May I recommend staying away from the traditional suit and opting for the dress + blazer combo? Gray dress + black blazer + pearls = the most perfect combination, and it allows you to avoid weird things like waistbands and the perpetual "tuck or untuck" problem.

Sarah N. replied:

Sarah and Heidi are my fairy godmothers of fashion. THANK YOU ALL for your awesome advice and thoughts!!

Devin S. replied:

I remember Boden! I second Boden. While I tried to embrace my curvy femme life once, I really hated it to the depths of me. I wore Boden A LOT. A-Line dresses were always a cruel joke for me [if they had an empire or otherwise waist].

Leah P. replied:

I rarely buy suits, but I second Talbots and Nordstrom Rack. When I did need to wear suits, those were places I went. What I find harder than the suits, actually, is finding nice shells for underneath. I like stuff with little sleeves in case I want to take off the suit jacket. Now, I'm a teacher, so clogs and a cardigan are tots acceptable

Shannon B. replied:

I have good luck with New York and Company. That's where I got my last interview suit. I need to go back and get more dress pants soon. Natick mall?

Shannon B. replied:

Kristin Grassel Schmidt is a great shopping buddy!
