AP, I appreciate your frustration. The clothes come from an online tool site called “polyvore.com”.

http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/home?id=200056

This site selects clothing and accessories from all over the world to use as reference points for illustrative purposes. The outfits accompanying the formulas that I create for you using polyvore are therefore for illustrative purposes only. I have decided to carry on using polyvore.com to visually aid my formula and cheat sheet blog posts. This way of presenting an outfit idea is more effective than a bunch of models sporting loads of different items that don’t really match.

It’s not ideal that I can’t provide a link to where the items come from and I’m sorry I can’t improve that side of things. But polyvore is an excellent visual tool and so far the reactions to the virtual outfit displays have been positive. I hope you find them useful.

I know quite a few have asked, but where is the clothing shown from?

If you are going to continue on with the series, which I have enjoyed, please only use fashions where the store name can be provided. I love the yellow dress, but I’d rather know if exists if I can’t find it in stores.

Thanks

I hear you musings of a housewife. Your reaction is like many others. It’s all about a habit change and once you’re in the swing of wearing comfy casual frocks daily, there’s no looking back (especially when it’s really hot). It’s so much better than jeans, a basic T-shirt and flip flops no matter how you look at it.

i have been an avid dress wearer since being a poor (by choice) produce stocker at an organic grocery store in san francisco. the used clothing store sold clothes by the pound and i could get more dresses per pound than jeans. i became creative at altering housewife dresses from the 40’s-60’s amd then discovered the vermont country store (http://www.vermontcountrystore.....itemID=828) for the sake of modesty — camisoles, petti pants (slip/shorts gals!), slips in cotton and thermal materials for winter.

good luck and look great!

I wish I could pull that off, but those outfits (that are ADORABLE, for sure) look so dressy/fussy to me. For my lifestyle, that is. But I do love them. That’s exactly what I need for the bridesmaid lunch I’m attending in Oct though. I love that yellow dress.

I second Eva–I would have major bra issues with the black dress, lovely though it is.

I finally managed to buy a day dress for myself, though. Here it is :

Love all the looks! I’m not a mom, but these are great for any busy girl.

Could you tell us where the yellow dress is from? I want to say Banana Republic.
