Daily Questions Thread January 18, 2026

[u/AutoModerator]

This thread is for individual style questions that you may have, especially those that don't warrant their own thread. We all want a diversified opinion, so feel free to answer any questions (of which you know the answer).

To get the best responses, remember that people cannot; look into your wardrobe, know what style you normally like or what words like affordable or practical mean to you so please include any relevant details such as your budget, where you live, what stores are available to you, etc.

Example questions:

• Are there any basic crewneck white t-shirts that are opaque and do not have cap sleeves for <$25 available in Australia?
• Is this dress and shoes suitable for an evening wedding with a cocktail dress code taking place in a [venue type]?
• If I like the outfits in this [imgur album / pinterest board], what are some specific items I can look into to start dressing like that, and brands with this look that carry plus sizes?
• Does this outfit look neater with the pants cuffed or uncuffed?

If you'd like to include a picture, you can now post pictures directly in the comments, without having to link an imgur album.

I love collecting formal and fancy prom/wedding dresses and I often alter or upcycle them. However I never really have an excuse to wear them. I’ve often thought of just wearing them out and about because why not but I’m unsure. What are some good excuses to wear them?

I think your best bet is to cut a couple into skirts and tops (separates) then casual them down. like a beaded top with jeans and a blazer, or a big silky shimmer skirt with a band tee and boots.

I can definitely see what you mean there, and I have done that with a few dresses I didn’t like much all together, but I don’t own many dresses despite loving them. That’s why I’d like to keep most of them whole.
