@GAQShopr53.....it has been ages since I have purchased any of Susan's items. Just about all I purchase from the Q us D&C.....because they are comfortable, do last for ever, and that is mostly how I dress now..... Since I have had to start all over with getting any kind of wardrobe together, thought I would go with the sweater I ordered today that was by Issac....it's the mock turtle neck with Bishop's sleeves. Got it in the creamy blush. Have gone from some 2X's down to some M's, but got this one in L because I just don't feel good in tight fitting clothes. ,

First I want to say Congratulations @ShowMe on going from 2X to M that is a HUGE Accomplishment!!! I purchased D & Co. jeans but have better luck with the fit of Susan's dress pants and tops. The pima cotton tees I have purchased form Issac are the best. When I retired I donated my entire wardrobe and had to start all over again so that's why I have a closet full of SG!

Looks like IMO that everything the Q sells now days is much higher in price. Many of the shoes and boots they sell are cheaper online if they have your size and color.I will not spend 60 bucks for a top from SG or anyone else on the Q. Even Denim&Co. is getting expensive for what it is.

@blackhole99.....Yes, D&C is getting expensive too. But for casual wear they are fine with me. Have purchased several of their most popular pants recently, and it was buy 1, get the next at a lower price. Think I'm good now as far as pants go. But having to replace a whole wardrobe is very expensive.....from inside clothing to pants, tops, and jammies...... I have found Shop National very reasonable and very good quality for some pants and knit tops. All good enough for every day wearing.

I'm going to have a closet in my house converted to a vault. I have many SG pieces and, at today's prices, they're worth a fortune. When I decide to get rid of them, I'll have them auctioned by Sotheby's.

I used to have loads of SG clothing. I don't care for her items anymore but I must agree that liquid knit is amazing stuff. I can find a top smushed in the bottom of a drawer and there are no wrinkles. The other day I found a white tee shirt that must be 10 years old. It was just as white as the day I got it.

@GAQShopr53......thanks.....but it is nothing I would want anyone else to go through. Have been battling cancer now for going on 4 years. Have had many many OPDIVO treatments, and just recently completed a series of radiation treatments on the tumor on my back. Believe me it has been tough. But today I did get a good report from my oncologist from the PET scan I had last Thursday......Everything looks good now and and he doesn't want to see me for 3 months. The radiation is still killing the cancer on my back, and he doesn't think he wants me to go back on any other treatments for now. So, time will tell.

Anyhow, that is why I'm having to replace everything in my wardrobe. Have a very happy neighbor next door, and hopefully there will be some very happy customers at Good Will.

@ShowMe I did not know and sending nothing but positive and healthy vibes your way...Goodwill received a ton of clothing items the last time but for future items I am donating to local shelters!

@GAQShopr53......Well here's hoping I never have to think of donating clothes for quite a while now. Don't think I'll ever gain much of that weight back. Am trying very hard to eat, but really don't have much appetite. I got pretty run down, and cooking just wasn't agreeing with me. Now it is improving, but not gaining any weight.....yet. Do know one thing, if I have to donate clothes again, will do the same thing you will be doing in the future.

I'm ready for bed now, as I am very tired. Got up at 6:15 this morning....without the alarm. Did doze off a little this afternoon, but not for very long. Want to eat a blueberry muffin, brush my teeth, then hit the hay.

Talk about expensive -- I was looking at some casual wear and Isaac has a cashmere hoodie for $199.98 and matching pants $229.98. Granted they were cashmere, but give me a break. For casual wear both are too rich for my blood.
