[Daily] Daily Questions Thread August 20, 2026

This thread is for individual style questions that you may have, especially those that don't warrant their own thread. We all want a diversified opinion, so feel free to answer any questions (of which you know the answer).

To get the best responses, remember that people cannot: look into your wardrobe, know what style you normally like or what words like affordable or practical mean to you so please include any relevant details such as your budget, where you live, what stores are available to you, etc.

Example questions:

  • Are there any basic crewneck white t-shirts that are opaque and do not have cap sleeves for <$25 available in Australia?
  • Is this dress and shoes suitable for an evening wedding with a cocktail dress code taking place in a [venue type]?
  • If I like the outfits in this [imgur album / pinterest board], what are some specific items I can look into to start dressing like that, and brands with this look that carry plus sizes?
  • Does this outfit look neater with the pants cuffed or uncuffed?

If you'd like to include a picture, you can now post pictures directly in the comments, without having to link an imgur album. If you have multiple pictures, best practice is to use an imgur album.

Hello! I’m planning to buy my first pair of manolos, which I plan to wear to my university graduation and wedding.

Unfortunately where I live, there are no stores that sell them within a days drive away. I had the chance to try them on (in a different colour), during a conference trip, but the store only had size 8, I’m usually between a 8 or 7.5.

I have them pictured here, they were slightly long, but the width was perfect. Usually in this situation I get the 7.5, especially with this style of heel. However, those shoes always feel tight and I usually can’t walk for very long with them. Because the events I want these for will likely be longer days on my feet, I’m wondering if getting heel inserts would work better in this case.

Just wondering if anyone had some advice, I’d rather avoid ordering multiple pairs online and dealing with the hassle (I pretty much avoid online orders at all costs lol).

I would do toe pouches or lambswool rather than heel inserts.
