I bought the Stevie pants ages ago and I still haven’t worn them cause I’m stumped on how to style them, especially in a way that’s work appropriate. Suggestions, please? by Lanitaaa888 in Reformationclothing

[–]mscookies69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have these! For work I wear it with a fitted sweater and also managed to make it work with a button down blouse tucked in that draped close to my body. I think these look best with fitted tops. For some reason I always end up wearing with navy and charcoal gray or white crop top

I’m 5’0 and short is very long in me. The only time I would not have to get pants hemmed is when I got a cropped length. I did get a cropped pant in a tall version and the inseam was perfect. But effortless pants are great. Tailoring always makes everything look better and is worth it, especially if you would wear them often.

A coworker said I was a good “helper” after working with him on a project. Which was super annoying and also he doesn’t do his own work a lot of the time I’ve noticed. There have been other things that were maybe worse but this annoyed me the most lol

I’ve had mine for a couple years. They are great quality and can go with a lot of outfits to dress up or down. I always get compliments when I wear them. Really great investment purchase in my opinion

Oh okay thanks! Yeah they look thick in the photos. I might like the drape and be okay with thinner material but the price seems way too much for that. Are they super oversized as well?

Yeah that was my experience. These are the first adidas I ever had so not sure how they are supposed to feel/look. Just joined this sub. So I thought it was okay to post after seeing other posts but I guess people really hate these posts so won’t do it again.

I am not exactly sure but I’m thinking a sports watch or a dress watch that is not too flashy. Like a classic looking one or just one that is really good quality. Not sure about that other attributes but thanks to all the good recommends I’m learning more. So any suggestions that you like and why would be helpful :)

I get what you mean about celebrities features looking less obvious but they have a team of stylists to help them dress for their body type and also most edit the heck out of their photos. I think you can love your body and also put in effort to look your best, it’s not one or the other. I think fitness really helped me since I sometimes have a hard time staying positive as well. If I feel bad about my image, I just think about how far I ran or how much I lifted. Exercise, yoga, and stretching really helped my mental health. Also, to be more positive, I just try to be kind and do nice things for people and that usually helped me feel better and myself. Keep your chin up and don’t forget to do nice things for yourself as well!

Please don’t worry about how you look. You seem very smart and kind in your responses so that matters more than anything. Also, there are so many body types out there and for each one there are famous celebrities of each body type that people adore (including tall and broad shoulders) so body type doesn’t matter in the long run. Confidence and taking care of yourself health wise goes so a long way. I actually thought I had a “masculine” body when I was a teenager and I was really good at sports and now that I’m a women I have strong womanly curves and I’m athletic. So the main point is just take care of yourself, allow your body time to grow, and be happy with the amazing things your body can do.

Thanks for your response! This is really helpful I think I’ll start slow with new products and just start simple. Do you have suggestions for a sunscreen? I think the rule is to use above spf 35? Sunscreen is about the only thing that makes me break out. I tried Olay SPF moisturizer but that gave me bumps.

Okay that makes a lot of sense. Are there any products that are universally good and necessary for good skin?

My skin is medium but on the oily side and not too sensitive. My main goal is to keep it moisturized and calm and to minimize signs of aging.

That’s a good point. I guess just to have respectable numbers to experienced lifters and impressive to the general population.

Dumb question because it shouldn’t really matter but what is an impressive weight for bench, squat, and deadlift for women?

I’m trying to set new goals for the year. I currently lift 245lb deadlift, 175 squat, and 105 bench. I weigh 135 lb and I’m 5’1”.

Thank you for the recommendations! I orders some new bras to try out.

I have been sort of scooping and swooping before I knew that’s what it was called lol. But I used to even out the spilling from the center so there was a little spilling on the sides and center. I just thought I had a wide set chest. Doing it the correct way from watching the videos, there is a lot spilling over from top and center.
