Sought: unicorn leggings. Not literally.

Loose women's pants for cooler weather
Since work from home started, I have been living in loose cropped linen pants like these or these. Now that the weather is getting cooler, I'd like something similar in a warmer fabric (like sweatpant fabric). [more inside]
Pajama/lounge pants with no strings attached
I'm looking for high-quality women's pajama or lounge pants with an elasticized waist - no ties. For some reason, this is hard. Other snowflakes within. [more inside]
plus size women's clothing recs - nth edition
A UK-specific question. I am seeking plus-size women's clothing retailers (online preferred). I am a veteran of the UK plus size high street and of stalwarts like ASOS, Evans and the plus size lines of New Look, Dorothy Perkins etc. None of them sell quite what I am seeking. I feel like questions like this get posted frequently, but I thought I would post this in case there are new retailers I am unaware of. [more inside]
Layering tank tops for women who don't want to flash their colleagues
I’m looking for the holy grail of not-too-cleavage-y cotton-blend women’s layering tanks that can go from business-casual office to weekend wear. [more inside]
I'd like to complain to Target about something they don't sell
Target sells rash guards for men and children but not for women and I'd like to complain to someone at Target that could maybe do something about it. I've used the chat function on their website but that went nowhere. So do I email someone or tweet at someone, and who would that person be? [more inside]
Online sources for quality women's accessories
I want to buy a woman I know a cool scarf or wrap or some jewelry for Christmas. I went to my local artisan's market/boutiquey area yesterday and didn't find anything I liked. What are some online sources? A few snowflakes below. [more inside]
Wedding Guest Seeks Blue Dazzler
I'm attending a wedding in one month and I need a dress. In blue. That fits my persnickety list of requirements. I also hate clothes shopping - help? [more inside]
Buying Women's Clothing Online -- Show Your Work
I'm delighted at the great answers to clothing questions here. Can you teach me how you do it? I want to get beyond "just Google it." Are there useful metasearch sites? What strategies fail? Do you pick a designer and then search for different sellers? I'm looking for wool trousers. But I'm not asking you to tell me where to buy these pants, but discuss how you would go about finding them, or any other women's clothing. [more inside]
Don't you hate pants? (Plus size edition)
I have a strong preference for wearing skirts because they are more comfortable. I especially hate jeans. However, winter is coming, so I need pants to wear to work. A few snowflakes inside (and unfortunately, outside). [more inside]
Women's Plus Sized Jeans Recommendations
I'd like to buy some jeans, ideally on-line. I am large and would like to find something that is comfortable, looks okay, and doesn't make me cry when I put them on. Suggestions appreciated! [more inside]
Looking for women's cotton seamless underwear
I want to buy a bunch of pairs of cotton underwear that are as close as possible to the nylon/polyester/spandex underwear I currently have, and this is proving annoyingly difficult. [more inside]
Machine-washable work-appropriate pants for women? (Not jeans)
Where can I buy women's machine-washable pants/trousers/slacks to wear in a business-casual office environment? Not jeans. [more inside]
Bulk Tailoring - Possible? Advisable?
I am a petite, early-30s, hourglass-figured woman who has finally decided to get a bunch of (mostly) business casual items tailored, but need advice about the best plan of attack - because they are numerous, and varied. I would like to get the 20 items in the "to get tailored" area of my closet comprising tops, wrap dresses, and pants hemmed, have tab-button sleeves or necklines tacked closed, and/or waists taken in (pants). Will a tailor want to do these in multiple batches? I have questions about etiquette, expectations, ballpark timelines, and tailoring interactions in general... [more inside]
Who wears not-that-short shorts?
Women and shoppers-in-women's clothes of Metafilter, I have been gladdened by the appearance this summer of women's denim shorts with actual inseams! But I've only seen them in the wild, and haven't found any in stores. If you've bought some can you tell me where? Criteria inside. [more inside]
Where should I shop for women's clothing in Vancouver BC
I'm going up to Vancouver for the weekend soon and find myself with a bit of a clothing budget and a favorable exchange rate. I don't shop at the same stores as my woman friend up there due to differences in taste and size range, and my other woman friend there is off at a meditation retreat so I can't ask her. Given the preferences below the fold, where should I shop for clothes and shoes? [more inside]
Where do women (like me) buy clothes online?
I have a problem buying clothes online. I'm in an in-between point in my fashion life: I'm not dressing like an undergraduate, but I haven't reached the LL Bean stage in my life either, and I don't have an office job that requires wearing business casual. Where do you all shop online? [more inside]
Brands/stores like Jones New York?
Jones New York is apparently going under, so I'm looking for alternatives. Examples of what I like: this, this, and this. I'm looking for casual and business-casual clothes that are pretty standard with some interesting touches. My other main places to shop are Goodwill and Marshalls, where I look for Splendid, Loft, BR, James Perse, etc.
Or I Could Just Tie a Sash Around a Hefty Bag and Call It a Day
The focus should be on the bride, NOT on the taffeta-covered hobo skulking around the cheese trays: please, PLEASE help me (a non-fancy-dressing lady) dress myself for the four weddings I'll be attending this year. (Sequins shaped like) snowflakes inside! [more inside]
Cute Top
Women's running/workout shorts with longer inseams?
I have killed my favorite pair of running/workout shorts. They are apparently no longer available in my size and what appears to be the new and allegedly improved version is not even close to the same. Where can I find a pair of wicking/non-cotton women's running shorts with a liner, pockets and (most importantly) an inseam of at least 4"? [more inside]
Women's fashion blogs and shops that focus on quality and craftsmanship?
Help me find women's fashion blogs and shops that emulate a certain quality I enjoy in men's fashion and accessories, namely the emphasis on craftsmanship and timeless style. [more inside]
What is the name of this item of clothing that combines shirt & sweater?
What's the name for the piece of women's clothing that looks like one is wearing a v-neck sweater over a button-down shirt, but really it's one shirt with collar and cuffs attached to a "fake" sweater? [more inside]
I've got to change my ways, dress for business every day
Cluelessly-dressed 30-year-old office-working lady here. I have come to the conclusion that it is in my best interest to start leaning much more toward the business side of business casual on a daily basis.
Professional women/fashion mavens of Metafilter, could you lend me a hand with these business wear-related queries? [more inside]
A cute and cozy full coverage women's robe
Searching for the perfect women's robe: "cute and cozy, non-Burqa-style robe." What this means in practice is something full coverage but without the shapeless lack of drape of some of those floor to ceiling women's robes that look like something cut for Lurch's body type.
Attention Shoppers
I've lost about 35 pounds in the last 6 months (on purpose), and I am now swimming in my clothes. I'm taking my tax refund and my shopoholic best friend to the Mall of America this weekend, where I intend to buy myself clothes that fit. Unfortunately, I don't know what stores I should be looking in. More deets under the cut. [more inside]
I cannot wash that many items by hand every week.
Handwash Only?! How do I manage the increasing tendency for professional women's clothing to demand very special, labour intensive treatment? [more inside]
Custom suit - for a woman
I'm thinking about having a suit custom-made. I have read the AskMe archives (and the English Cut website) on custom-made clothes, but most of them refer to men's suits. What should I look for (and ask for) in a woman's suit? [more inside]

To dry clean or not to dry clean...
MeFites, I need you to lay some dry cleaning knowledge on me. Do I need to take my suit skirt to the dry cleaner's if a small amount of beer was spilled on it while out with colleagues yesterday? Please help a laundry-vs.-dry-cleaning rule challenged gal figure it all out. [more inside]
