How long did it take to write this actual masterpiece? The work you put into this was worth every second: it’s perfect. There is SO MUCH that is useful and beautiful and fun and interesting here.

Also one woman’s weekend wear is another woman’s any day wear? I feel like I have ideas for the next two months. So much inspiration from so many varied amazing writers. Thank you for this gem! 💎 and THANK YOU for including me. What a gift to me.

This was so fun! I loved how you styled everything. And I really hope shirts tied around the waist is ~not~ going out of style because I’m currently working on a post exclusively about that lolllllll. Let’s keep the vibe going forever!!!!

Traci Landy's avatar

Wait, SAME. Let's text later ab out wants vs. needs. Or just the needs... (aka everything)

Okay, this is amazing! Real outfits for real life, yes ma'am!

P.S. The way I gasped and yelled "NO WAY!!" when I read that someone suggested we quit the shirt tied around the waist trend. I'll be 100 years-old and buried with a shirt tied around my little old lady waist.

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can envision us at the Senior Center wearing our shirts tied around the waist as we play Bingo (which is low-key one of my fave games EVER!)

Thank you so much for taking the time to read! It means the world to me!!!

You have to try purse bingo. It’s extremely loud and chaotic but fun if you’re in the right mindset.

This one spoke to me!! I'm WFH full-time for the first time in five years, so it feels like I'm dressing in ~peaceful~ weekend warrior mode seven days a week. I want to get dressed to go work at a coffee shop, but it's tough to find inspo for looks that make me feel put together but are still casual and comfy. So, this one really nailed it for my real life! I have tabs open for your blazer, Christina's dress, and Maureen's hexagon sunnies as we speak!

Traci Landy's avatar

OMG I can totally get that. I would love a WFH option, just not in the cards for me! I am so glad it resonated -- YAY!!!! You are the best, Sarah. Thank you for taking the time to read!!

Maria Hyde's avatar

Love your weekend warriors, Traci!! Those red satin pants look amazing on you. It was so fun reading what the other writers had on their list, too!

Traci Landy's avatar

Aw— thank you so much, Maria!! I LOVED all of the different ideas! My wish list expanded greatly after this one 🤣🫶🏻

Usha's avatar

Traci Landy's avatar

THANK YOU! It was crazy exhausting LOL. Thank you for taking the time to read, you are the best!!

I love all of your weekend warriors, but 4, 5 and 6 are so dang good !! I want to live in a mix of 5 and 6.

Traci Landy's avatar

AHHH, yes I happen to agree!! TY, Ofelia!! I appreciate you!!!

Meg's avatar

Oh this is where it’s at! So relatable…real life, real casual life probs!! 😉 Your red pants and cap are such great colour pops! Love it Traci!

And it’s always fascinating to see everyone’s go-to picks. Lots to try and avoid adding to my wish list!! I’ve always loved those COH Ayla jeans, tho I’ve never tried them.

Traci Landy's avatar

I’m so glad you enjoyed!! I’m just trying to pull off a B/B- vibe each weekend. Looking like a human, but minimal effort.

I love the red pants! They are going to get a ton of use for me 🥰

The Ayla denim look so good. I loved seeing the gazillion different pants writers wear on the wknd to stay comfortable yet pulled together!

Ana's avatar

Beautiful looks 😍 I LOVE the pull in pants and the color! This was so thoughtfully written. I feel like now that I'm staying home with my toddler, casual and comfy has become my comfort bubble, but I've let go of the 'dressing with intention' (as I used to), and thankfully your writing+ the fact that I now have more time, has been bringing it back and I'm loving it!

Traci Landy's avatar

ANA!! Thank you so much! I happen to love them as well. You already have such fabulous casual-chic outfits that I always love seeing on your IG!!! Thank you for always taking time to read <3

Traci Landy's avatar

THANK YOU!! I had a lot of fun showcasing them! Between these and Katelyn's wardrobe basics... I think the entire Substack universe is SET moving forward! :)!!!

Nina Piccini's avatar

Ahh I’m loving all of these and I’m always striving to be the perfect mix of comfy, effortless but also put together on the weekends. Love this inspo!

Traci Landy's avatar

YAY!! Thank you so much for taking the time to read, Nina! I'm SO glad you enjoyed it! I like to look B/B+ put together on weekends… does that make sense? lol. Put together while doing the LEAST :) I appreciate you so much!
