[Win a $250 giftcard] What is your favorite article of clothing? - Page 3

Handbags! Or shoes! Or both! But if I must be specific, then I would like to mention a pair of wide-leg denim trousers from GAP that look wonderful with both a button-down and heels or a striped tank top and flipflops. Such great quality, such a great fit (no worrying that my legs look like sausage rolls since they're instead swathed in graceful, flowing fabric), and HALF OFF! But at the moment I am also in love with a quarter-sleeve, double-breasted grey jacket (also at GAP). It's so soft and, again, flowy. So comfy! It will soon be mine...

my fave article of clothing would have to be my old yoga pants i bought at old navy a million years ago. they're super comfy yet i can still wear them in public without looking like a slob. my second favorite would have to be a pair of paul frank brand flip flops with julius (the monkey) on them - i bought them on clearance at delia's 4 years ago and they're still looking good after heavy wear. I wear them with my yoga pants rather frequently!

My favorite piece of clothing is an old Hermes scarf that I got over twenty years ago at the now long gone I. Magnins on Union Square in San Francisco. Talk about old school shopping! Those were the days.
I bought the scarf when I was young and reckless and it has seen better days but it is still pretty.

Besides my engagement and wedding rings, I admit I am still mourning the destruction of the perfect black wedge sandals. I could wear them to a wedding or I could walk miles in them. They were amazingly comfortable and looked great. I wore them until the soles cracked.

Shoes all the way.

I wouldn't say I really have a specific article of clothing that's my favorite, since my wardrobe is often interdependent on other articles of clothing (this undergarment with that shirt, this skirt with those two tops, etc.) but in general, my favorite article of clothing is my jeans.

My favorite pair currently is from Lane Bryant, and even better, I got them on sale. They're nice wide-leg flares, very very comfortable, and have some nice feminine (but not gaudy) embellishments here and there. They don't get too hot in the summer's heat since they're quite billowy around my knees, which are usually bad choke points for me with pants.

All in all, great jeans are the greatest thing in the world to me.

I love black scoop neck tshirts. I have about five of them at any given time in my closet. I can wear them to work with a necklace and a skirt or you can never go wrong the classic black tshirt and jeans on on the weekend.

I have an ancient black hooded sweatshirt that zips in the front. It's my go-to anytime I get chilled. It's looking a bit rough, but I've even worn it to the office on really awful weather days.

My old, old wristwatch. My parents bought it for me >10 years ago and its still working. It was my first "grownup" watch (metal band rather than plastic! and shows the date! woah!) and it was about $35 but I still love it.

My Favorite shirt Is a long sleeve earth toned tyedye. It has worn through front and back, my wife thinks it quite an embarassmant, but I'll never let it go. I even hand wash it now for fear of the washer shredding what is left.
