I’ve had great luck with this brand for casual tees and dresses, so I’m very interested in these wide-leg twill pants from Pact. They come in two different inseams, which is great because fit is everything with pants like this.
I would wear this “oak” color with a breezy white button-up for a comfy casual Friday look.
The pants are $88 at Nordstrom and come in sizes XS-XXL with 28-inch and 30-inch inseams.

What are your favorite shoes for running errands? I feel like I wear my running shoes far too often
Birkenstock Bend sneakers
Birkenstock canvas slip-ons
I have a pair of white on cloud sneakers I wear exclusively for not exercising…I try to keep them clean, and I think they look a bit fancier than my actual athletic shoes I run or work out in. Or are you looking for non-sneaker options?

I usually wear fashion sneakers with my casual outfits. Sandals, in the summer.
Depending on what I’m wearing, loafers, sandals, or Tretorns.
Any advice for clearing up back acne? In particular, what products you use and how you apply them (spray? stick with a loofah?)?
Has anyone here used an egg donor? If so, do you have any advice for someone considering it? After surgery and a few failed rounds of IUI, I’m not a good candidate for IVF due to severe endometriosis, my age, and how I’ve responded to injectable meds during IUI. Given my age and lack of insurance coverage for any of this, it seems like an egg donor will give me my best shot of becoming a mom. I do feel sad at the prospect of not having a genetic connection with a child but I’m afraid I’ll feel like a fraud and won’t feel like I’m the real mom. I’ve read a lot that these are common fears that don’t really come to fruition once the child is born so I guess I’m looking for any experiences or words of encouragement here. I have spoken with a counselor as well.
I’m growing with my menopause journey. For similarly-aged ladies: is it for you that you aren’t just larger but differently larger? I can’t just go up a size to fix things; maybe I need to change brands? Talbots won’t fit at all — I thought that would be the solution. Is there Sansabelt for women? I’m like an extra robust 10, so not in women’s sizes. I’m in rufflepuffs and dresses that have a waist but are loose below it. That’s not how I historically roll.
