Only two items, but seemingly impossible to find:
1: A nice calf length wool/cashmere coat, in camel, not double-breasted, no synthetic.
2: 2 pair of “riding” boots, solid color, 1 x to 1 1/2 flat heel, classic style. I need a wide in boots, but NOT wide in the calf! One pair black, one British Tan. I had beautiful Etienne Aigner, but sadly wore them to bits.
It doesn’t seem that this would be SO hard, but I’m lost! 🧐🤔😦

Hi @Drythe
I don't have any suggestions for the coat, but I used to have the most wonderful riding-style boots from Joan and David in the early 90s. Tall, black, exquisite leather, flat heels, with small criss-crossed straps around the ankle area as the only point of interest. I can't find a picture online to show you.
Due to RA's damage to several joints in my feet, I finally gave them to my DD. I loved those boots.
Anyway, it occurs to me that you might find a vintage pair you'd love, provided you can find your size.

Not sure what you want when it comes to socks but HSN has a great deal on the Copper Fit that are supposed to be really good for your circulation.

RA! Exactly my problem. I need the wide width in boots due to multiple surgeries, and the pressure from the all around, encasing fit of a boot, but NOT in my calf! The wide calf makes me look like I'm wearing waders. Sorry for the loss of your old friendly, classic boots - hopefully DD brings them to visit occasionally.
Thanks for the idea, I'll start looking around in the vintage areas.
I think of you often and hope you are well and in good spirits.
I confess that I am, and no doubt will be suffering from the loss of my beloved, baby, and his brother who died 8 weeks later. I knew they would not survive long without one another. {{{HUGS}}}

I usually wear leggings with boots and a nice top. I would like to get some more bear paw boots in different colors. I really do not wear dresses in the winter.

I love fall clothes and colors. There is absolutely nothing that I need BUT I purchased anyway. Just got Susan Graver's LK tops with the rib trim because of the colors - plum raisin, green jasper, ginger spice and 4 pair of her printed liquid knit pants - fall colors. Bought Belle's long cardigan in bordeaux. Issac's vivid plum pants and vivid plum bell sleeve top (also bought the dark green one). Love my fall colors. I am on the look out for long cardigans - not true 39-41 inch duster length, but more like 35-37". Not really looking for anything in particular, but I know something(s) will catch my eye.

I donated bags of old sweaters, coats, etc, last week. I won't replace everything, but do need a couple new sweaters and a pair of black shooties to wear with black jeans. Every season there are less and less items in my closets and drawers -- this is a good thing!

I just received some great wool ankle socks for boots from LL Bean.

Believe it or not Walmart had some beautiful color tops in my fav color
of that deep wine/deep garnet shade. Not red, black or purple, but, that
deep garnet shade. I got couple of tops that I could wear a cardigan over.
