Never thought I'd say this, but I'm finding that Old Navy has been doing JC better than JC this winter. I got a pair of boyfriend straight jeans (99% cotton, 1 % spandex), some sweater-knit joggers (which hold up better than the Saturday pants), and two striped open cardigans that fit better on me than the JC version. They were both around $25 (which seems fair for acrylic blends) and don't have major pilling issues.
ReplyDeleteI've also had good luck at Loft for 100% cotton sweaters and tees. I don't have a lot of major clothing needs this time of year, but it's been nice to replace some worn-out tees with ones that have a flattering cut and no dropped shoulders.
