- Some of my favorite stores to shop for quality clothing -
Start at a Thrift Store!!! - Seriously so much quality is pre-loved and still in great shape.
Quince - quince.sjv.io/5gN5QL - I love them for career wear and good affordable knitwear and cashmere/wool. They aren't perfect, and I have had a few misses with them - most notably on pants (if they started making pants with wool or more cotton I'd be all over them)

UNIQLO - go.shopmy.us/p-5436012 - This has been my goto for almost a decade now. They are arguably fast fashion, but I think they are very innovative and research intensive. Something most modern day conglomerate fashion brands are missing. They lead with functionality and durability. One read through of any of their Lifewear Magazine edits and you will quickly get the feel that they take this all very seriously.

eBay - go.shopmy.us/p-5436094 - I'm a bit biased on this one because I also sell on ebay, but if you don't enjoy the thrill of the hunt with thrifting...then ebay should be your main source for secondhand. I regularly go on liking sprees of designers that are wayyyyy out of my price budget because you never know when you might get a fantastic offer. Most niche designers that are making incredible quality items are severely underpriced on ebay.
Etsy - go.shopmy.us/p-5436119 - This is a tough one....the market has changed so much and the fear of getting a cheap drop shipped item is real. But if you really dig deep into the seller and what they do, you can find incredible made to fit items, natural fibers that are impossible to find in any retail store, and super rare vintage items.
Alex Mill - go.shopmy.us/p-12974841 - A personal favorite of mine! I love the colorful and bold pops of color. It's a bit on the pricier side, but everything I've purchased and thrifted from them felt premium and had a decent level of construction. They stay consistent.
