I’m looking to update my wardrobe and would to find some easy to wear clothes in good fabrics. Does anyone have any go to places?

I have children so it needs to be easily washable too. I’d love to just look a bit more presentable and put together.

have you looked at Jigsaw, Hobbs, LKBennett, Max Mara. But, frankly, if you want easily washable, I don't think you're going to get really good fabrics. Maybe try M&S for easily washable tops and just some key pieces that need dry cleaning, eg black trousers?

I've just discovered Boden and have invested in a good range of work stuff/casual wear. Their clothes are lovely quality and wash well, though I must admit I do tend to look after for discount codes!

I avoid M & S like the plague. Haven't had a good piece that's lasted more than 6 washes in about 5 years now.

I buy lots of Whistles, Hobbs, Jigsaw, plus the occasional bits from LK Bennett and & Other Stories - all from EBay. Anything decent I put on a wool wash and hang up on a hanger to dry and it’s always been absolutely fine.

Uniqlo, I love it for basics. Whistles has lots of polyester but some nice stuff. Toast, Cos, Jigsaw, Me&Em, Celtic & Co.

Bravissimo if you are big breasted...

Cos and Arket. Both have sales in at the moment.

Where do you shop now?

Thank you for the suggestions.

At the moment I tend to go to primark but that’s for convenience. I have shopped at new look and on eBay. I’ve just turned 30 and realised that I barely have anything that suits/fits because not bought anything really worth it. I don’t have lots of money to spend in one go so would like to start swapping out the crap for nicer items a bit at a time.

I like Oliver Bonas - sometimes hit and miss though

I love Thought. Eco friendly materials and basic enough to just be able to mix and match for work without too much effort.
