Non-prescription glasses: hot or not?
You have a coworker or acquaintance who often wears glasses. You find out that they don't actually need the glasses for medical or eyesight reasons; it's more of a style preference that they opt into when the mood strikes. Is this annoying or gross or who cares? [more inside]

long underwear recommendations?
As it says above. I live in an often cool climate. I've always been prone to feeling chilly. And my workplace seems committed to using all the money they save going cheap on heat in winter by cranking the AC in summer. So, yeah, I need some new long underwears.... [more inside]

Fabric type question
I'm trying to find a particular fabric and am drawing a blank. I'm looking for a 100% rayon fabric, to make an extra large sarong. I bought the original fabric locally more than 10 years ago, but the shops here don't have anything similar (and haven't for at least the last three years) so I'm trying to find it online and also having no luck - I suspect my search terms are the problem. I'm in Australia but desperate enough to order overseas if I can get the right stuff. [more inside]

Some tips for adopting a more androgynous/masculine of center style?
I'm a young-ish queer nonbinary AFAB person who recently started dressing in a less feminine fashion (no dresses, no purses, no super form-fitting tops) and have found it incredibly freeing and wonderful. I am looking for resources or potential retailers that might have clothing items that fit my new style--specifically looking for nice slacks, button-downs in fun prints or bright colors and shoes.

Made to order pants/trousers for women?
In the last couple years there was an answer on here recommending a North American company where you could pick a style of casual pant, choose the fabric (many were like thick jersey) and length and then they would make the pant. Now I can’t find the original question anywhere. Maybe it was older? Does this ring a bell with anyone?

How do you manage your clothes and the amount of laundry you do?
I always have too much laundry to do because I don't have my own washer/dryer and it's a PITA to get dressed and get it all going in my building's little laundry room even when I really need to. Can you help me develop a tentative strategy to address this issue based on some of the paint points described within? [more inside]

Lip color that stays and doesn't dry out?
I love the look of lip color, but have always had a hard time finding something that feels good on my lips, won't smear and/or won't dry out my lips. I know there's tons of new options out there now – do you have a favorite? I like the idea of stains a lot, but again I don't want something drying. I use lip balm all days; are there stains out there that stay even after a balm is used? Colored balms haven't really fit the bill. Other options I haven't thought of? I basically want something that I can't feel on my lips, but looks amazing for long periods of time. Lip color lovers, does this exist??

Does anyone recognize the organization on this graphics tee.
It's "for a project". It might be for a Christian religious association. Or Dave Matthews who has a peculiarly Christ-like affectation id you ask me.

What is this fabric print style?
In an article about Tidiane Thiam, I saw this picture of him with some other members of the Democratic Party of Ivory Coast (PDCI-RDA). The party members are wearing these shirts made with a distinctive print that has squares filled with geometric patterns, like a quilt with a stricter unity across squares. Does this style have a name or a historical background?

Experienced sewing people - can I get bigger buttons put on old shirts?
I have a bunch of very nice button-down work shirts that have small buttons and tight-fitting button holes. I also now have arthritis in my hands that’s making it painful if not impossible to button these buttons. Can I take them to a tailor/seamstress and get larger buttons put on along with corresponding larger button holes, or is that foolishness? Foolishness factors include prohibitive cost, impossibility of the task, or general ’no way to do this and make it look good.’
