Definitely not a fashionista haha, but there is one clothing brand that I do like. Ralph Lauren.

Way, way back in college (photo unavailable,) Polo shirts became the in-thing. I had a few in pastel colors that included “plum” and “salmon” haha. Much, much later, a big factor in this affinity was due to living near the Waikele Premium Outlets. Bought my first navy blazer from the Polo Factory Store.

Now I have Ralph Lauren t-shirts, chinos, and socks. The t-shirts were all at half-price at TJ Maxx in the South Shore Market.

I also got a sport coat (for 帆花’s graduation,) a Herrington jacket, and a hoodie from Macy’s sales.

I even have a denim jacket, a flannel shirt, and a pair of black jeans. Everything I’ve ever purchased over the years was on sale (except for the socks and some of the chinos.)

The one mistake purchase was this alligator belt. I bought it when I was skinny🤣 I also bought it at regular price😭 Now it doesn’t fit, but I can’t toss it out either.

One of my best purchases was this RRL workshirt that I found on ebay at a great price. RRL (called “Double RL”) is Ralph Lauren’s western style clothing line.

And coming back full circle, I currently have a few Polo shirts. No pastel colors tho…
