I'm with you, definitely! The fabrics are cheap and itchy and you can tell they're not well-sewn. I personally believe that the simple, classy, feminine look never goes out of style. So many of the so-called "trends" look more like "trash" to me. I have a slim, knee length pencil skirt in the perfect shade of rose pink that I have worn for years - looks classy at work, pair it with a sexy tank top and I'll fit in at any club, etc. I feel much better in that than I would in one of those ugly little pleated miniskirts that every little girl in Gainesville has been wrapping around her butt lately (besides the fact that I am way too tall for that - it would be too much leg for most guys to handle
)
Ann Taylor and Banana Republic are my home planets! You make a much better impression when you aim for classic rather than trendy, and I've noticed I get a better response from guys too. My friends started calling me Charlotte recently (from SATC) and that is just fine with me - most of the "Carrie" looks make me want to puke all over those Manolos - Charlotte always looks so pretty, not weird.
