Well you’re young enough to be my offspring, @Lindsay Sword but I love your style. Those boots are to die for! I am firmly in my boot era; think I have bought 4 pairs in the last year! And comfortable separates rule these days. I went to a business lunch in a skirt and sweater with pumps and felt comfortable and age appropriate. The older you get the less you want to feel dorky in your duds. Or like you are trying too hard: the worst IMO. Love this Sogole!
I'm not sure about that, Leslie, but thank you so much for the kind compliment! I am firmly in my boot era as well: comfortable, functional, stylish. What's not to love? You captured a huge reason why I love this series for Sogole, because figuring out our workhorses and showponies means that we can always have options to lean on to avoid feeling out of sorts! Thanks for reading and commenting!
Sogole, you are the best! Thank you SO much for inviting me to do this! It was so fun to think about my workhorses and show ponies - which is such a brilliant way to think about our clothes. I’m such a huge fan of your writing, your insights and trend analysis, and YOU. You are so generous, kind, and smart. I feel so lucky that Substack has connected me with my Gemini twin!
I'll be obsessing over Lindsay's cowboy boots until the day I die; such a fabulous Showpony that still feels 100% wearable. I admire Lindsay's commitment to having FUN while getting dressed because I was over here shouting AMEN as well.
@Lindsay Sword belatedly learning we have 2/3 same style words. Have been preppy eclectic since high school!!
Oh love this!!
they're a good combo!
Ooh I love me a show pony! What a fun read. ✨
Also, it looks like perhaps the shirt version of that amazing embellished Dries blazer is up for auction on eBay:

Comfort is basically my North Star these days…thanks for reading Leslie!!
