These days I usually get my clothing from Marshall’s, occasionally Amazon or Aeropostale. I’d like to branch out. Where do you all shop at?

I keep getting ads for places like CUPSHE, Shein, Cider, etc., and I honestly have no idea where to start. I’m 30Yo and looking for clothes that are cute, decent quality, and not super expensive — a mix of basics, work-appropriate stuff, and some trendier date night outfits.

I’m open to online or in-store, and I don’t need anything super “ethical,” but I’d prefer things that last longer than one wash.

I have bought a few things from Shein/Cider/CUPSHE because the cheap prices are so tempting, but quality seems hit or miss.

My questions:

1. What are your go-to stores for affordable but decent-quality clothes?

2. Are there any Shein/Cider alternatives that are better quality but still have the low price tags?

3. Any tips for shopping sales or finding good-quality pieces without spending a ton?

Thanks in advance — there are so many brands out there and I’m overwhelmed!
